Story Highlight
As Veterans Week 2024 comes to a close at Columbia, we’re looking back at two moments—our float in the New York City Veterans Day Parade and the Columbia Military Ball—when the University community came together to celebrate our student veterans, alumni, staff, and Columbia’s long history of working alongside the military to support the brightest minds who answer the call to service.
Columbia is proud of our students, faculty, and staff who are veterans, and we are grateful for their service and sacrifice and the invaluable contributions they offer to our community. We are proud that there are more than 700 veterans enrolled as students at Columbia, more than all the other Ivy League universities combined.
COLUMBIA HISTORY
Born on South Dakota's Yankton Sioux Reservation in 1889, Ella Cara Deloria was an educator, anthropologist, ethnographer, linguist, and novelist who graduated from Teachers College in 1915. Closely associated with German American anthropologist and Columbia faculty member Franz Boas, Deloria dedicated to him her work, Dakota Texts, which were translated tales of her peoples. Among her other important works are: Dakota Grammar, Speaking of Indians, and her novel Waterlily.
