The History of Columbia University
In the 30s, Columbia offered to read one classic book a week and that was considered a radical thing back in the time. It influenced the way that the curriculum in American higher education developed so many schools adopted versions of this model. Now it's very rare to find the course in which you can do what I did as a first year student at Columbia - encounter all these great thinkers with no discipline or department affiliation.
