- Wait a minute- Hartley hall can't have been the firs undertaking to house students at a university. McCaughey clearly states that Columbia's commuter status was a major difference between it and other colonial-era founded schools. The Harkness money in 1929 went towards completing the house and res college systems, not starting them. Correct? Similarly, Princeton is now completing its res college system with the construction of a new college. 205.134.0.81 13:21, 22 March 2007 (EDT)
