The personal submissions from faculty and staff are as varied as the Columbia Community: a physician plays violin on his Brooklyn stoop to cheer up neighbors; volunteers pack medical masks for Columbia hospitals; public safety officers mind empty campus grounds; administrative staff set up make-shift offices in their kitchens, closets, and apartment nooks; and cats pester people on their computers. The funny, poignant, and uplifting captions express emotions we are all feeling during this unusual time.
The collection of stories, images, and praise for co-workers is a true testament to the strength and can-do spirit of Columbia's faculty and staff.
