The Columbian is the official yearbook of Columbia College and SEAS. The book is produced over the course of the academic year by the staff of the Columbian. The staff members of the Columbian are CC or SEAS undergraduates who join the yearbook staff, which functions much like any other student organization. However, the Columbian does not fall under any of the five governing boards at Columbia, and instead reports directly to Student Development and Activities (SDA).
Previous volumes of the Columbian are available for viewing in the Columbiana Collection of the University Archives in Butler Library, and in the Columbia Alumni Center on W. 113th Street.
