City and a member of the Ivy League. Columbia is the oldest institution of
higher learning in the state of New-York, the fifth oldest in the United

American Revolution. It was founded in 1754 as King’s College by royal charter
of George II of Great Britain, and is one of only three United States
universities to have been founded under such authority. Nowadays the university
is very difficult to get into, because the competition is known to be very
high. Columbia’s motto: “In lumine Tuo ridebimus lumen” (Latin) and “In the
light we will see the light” (Psalm). The University annually administers the
Pulitzer Prize and has been affiliated with more Nobel Prize laureates than any
other academic institution in the world. As 2009, Columbia’s library system
includes over 10, 4 million volumes, making it the eight largest library system
and fifth largest collegiate library system in the United States.
