salaams all,

i am heading up to columbia univ in a couple of weeks to attend the south asian journalism association conference (say that 3 times fast!). anyway, i was wondering if anyone could help me figure my way about the city. how far is the uni from penn station? is it in a safe spot? is anyone else attending the conference?

i havent made hotel res. yet...was tryin to book a room with a few others, but i dont know folks from here who are attending. is perhaps housing avail on campus?

Where are you planning on staying?

just heard on bloomberg radio that they have discontinued the 9 train (as of last friday)
- so take the 1 across the platform. if you want to make life easier for yourself and longer, you can just take the 1 from penn station (it goes local) to 116st.

Well I went to columbia. The fastest way from Penn Station is taking the 2 or 3 train (red line) to 96 street then get off and take the 1 or 9 train (which is right across the platform) three stops to 116st and you are there. Should take about 20 minutes.
Is it safe - of course!!! enough cops to scare any thief/serial killer/rapist away. oh... and comubia is columbia right? Just checking! Have fun!!!
