Dean Siegel is Out of the Office August 1-12

I hope your summer is going well!  I am going to be on vacation for the first half of this month, but as of August 15 I will be back at my desk and excited to meet with you, for any reason.  You can book me here.  If you have any questions or concerns that need immediate attention, please email the Deans' Office for Advising and Support, and one of my colleagues will assist you. Don't forget you have a registration window August 8-12.

In case you missed it last week, I am recently installed as your Junior Class Dean, and excited to meet you.   I hope your summer is going well and affording some time for rest.  Now is as good a time as any to review your degree audit and check your transcript to make sure you’re on track with your major requirements, general education requirements (GERs), and 122 credits (121 for transfers). Also, you can now uncover grades of P from the spring semester anytime between now and the Sept 16 deadline

If you have any questions or concerns, or if you just want to say hello and tell me a bit about yourself, please schedule a meeting with me.  Note that I will be out of the office for the first two weeks of August, but very much back in action after that.  If you don’t see a time that works with your schedule, email me, and we’ll work out an alternative.

Welcome Juniors!

Hello, Class of 2024, and welcome to your junior year, from your Junior Class Dean.  My name is Erica Siegel, and while I am brand new to the Barnard Deans' Office, I've been at Columbia University in various capacities (undergraduate and graduate student, TA, lecturer, adviser) since 1994, with very little interruption.   I'm delighted to help inaugurate your junior year and this blog.  Please check back here for information about deadlines, events and programs.  You are officially invited to make an appointment with me -- especially if you're struggling or if something is on your mind. You are equally welcome if you just want to say hello, introduce yourself, and think a bit more about your goals and plans for this year and beyond.  I look forward to getting to know you.
