The display faces are Weiss and Cantoria. 2 The Blue & White The Varsity Show 3 THE BLUE AND WHITE THE VARSITY SHOW PLAYBILL ignificant alliances, partnerships, and coalitions are formed everywhere, every day. Who, for example, could forget the 1939 Nazi-Soviet Pact? Not Poland! For that matter, mutu- ally-beneficial exchanges play an integral role even at our fine school. Between Columbia College and SEAS students: “You do my problem set, I’ll read the Iliad for you.” Between the ladies of Barnard and Columbia: “You Take Back The Night, we’ll give you back your men.” Between the Office of University Development and the United Arab Emirates: “You give us 2.1 million dol- lars, we’ll give you an Edward Said Chair for Middle Eastern Studies.” Over the last two years, the Varsity Show and The Blue and White have enjoyed their own especially rewarding relationship. For instance, dur- ing tonight’s performance of Off Broadway, the Varsity Show will prove remarkably adept at wowing the audience with catchy tunes, flashy lights, and jokes at Barnard’s expense (it’s so easy). But what is the audience expected to do while waiting for the show to begin? Enter The Blue and White. -

ABC Allocations Release 2019 - 2020
ABC Allocations Release 2019 - 2020 Dear ABC Groups, Thank you for reaching out to your representatives and working with us this year in our effort to increase greater communication between our reps and their groups! In the first three weeks after the release of our initial letter, 100+ groups reached out to their reps, communicated via email, and / or met in person to discuss their group’s allocation amount and plans for the upcoming year! ABC’s intention had always been to publicly release the allocation decisions and their rationales. However, this year, we asked groups and representatives to establish an initial channel of communication to build a strong base to start off the year before publicly releasing all the allocation decisions. In case your group has not reached out to your representative, please do so as soon as possible! After the release of our initial letter, ABC also met with the VP of Finances of the councils in order to clarify any miscommunication that may have occurred: although ABC’s F@CU request increased this year, we received the same amount from F@CU as we did last year. However, over the past few years, ABC has reclaimed large amounts of unspent allocation from its student groups as well as covered any groups that have gone into overdraft due to spending money that they do not have. In an effort to curb inefficient spending, group overdrafts, and work within the funding amount provided to us from F@CU, ABC has systematically reviewed the allocation for every group, heritage month, and its co-sponsorship fund. -
Nuclear Security Today
The History and Future of Planetary Threats: Nuclear Security Today Welcome LEE BOLLINGER Speaker ERNEST J. MONIZ Panelists ROBERT JERVIS KEREN YARHI-MILO DAVID BRENNER Moderators WILMOT G. JAMES ALEX N. HALLIDAY THE WORLD FACES THE HIGHEST RISK of use of a nuclear weapon since the Cuban Mis- sile Crisis, largely due to heightened concern about the potential for blunder or miscalculation. In a virtual event held on 17 November 2020, former Secretary of Energy and Co-Chair and Chief Executive Officer of the Nuclear Threat Initiative Ernest J. Moniz discussed today’s nu- clear challenges—and the urgent need to return to diplomacy, diligence, and both technologi- cal and policy innovation to reduce these threats. The webinar was co-sponsored by the Insti- tute for Social and Economic Research and Policy (ISERP), Columbia University’s Earth Insti- tute, Columbia University’s Programs in Global Health at the Vagelos College of Physicians and Surgeons, and The Academy of Political Science. The webinar was the first inaugural event of The History and Future of Planetary Threats series. In this series, ISERP convenes meetings to examine the history of, as well as contempo- rary catastrophic risks and hazards, whether natural, accident or deliberate, in the following domains: geological, biological, epidemic infectious disease, environmental, chemical, extreme weather, radiological and nuclear, or combinations of these. By catastrophic we understand to mean classes of events that could lead to sudden, extraordinary, widespread disaster beyond the collective capacity of national and international organizations and the private sector to control, causing severe disruptions in normal social functioning, heavy tolls in terms of mor- bidity and mortality, and major economic losses; in sum, events that may well cause a change in the direction of history.
