Your UNI (University Network ID) is your key to online alumni resources. Think of it as a virtual alumni card which, along with a password you choose, helps us recognize you as a lifelong member of the Columbia community. Once you have a UNI, you can do the following:
- establish alumni e-mail forwarding
- register for free e-seminars offered by Columbia Digital Knowledge Ventures through the Learning @ Columbia site
- access certain other restricted Web resources
Do you already have an active UNI?
Every Columbia graduate has a preassigned UNI, and for those who graduated after 1990 it is usually carried over from their time as a student. If you were jd123 as a sophomore in 2000, you're jd123 for life. Even your password carries over. But don't worry: if you've forgotten your password, it can be reset and you can choose a new one. See the Help section for details.
If you are a user of alumni e-mail forwarding, your UNI is the portion of your e-mail address prior to @columbia.edu. For example, e-mail forwarding user John Doe with the e-mail address jd123@columbia.edu has the UNI jd123.
How do you get your UNI?
If you don't know what your UNI is or have forgotten your password, go to the UNI Request Form. We will need to get a few pieces of identifying information from you, and will then send you your UNI and a PIN for activating it.
Once you have your UNI, visit the activation page to activate it and choose a password. Then you'll be able to sign up for alumni e-mail forwarding, register for free e-seminars, and more!
Please note that computer and network accounts provide access to personal, confidential data. Therefore, individual accounts cannot be transferred to or used by another individual. Sharing accounts or passwords is not permitted. For more information, read Columbia University Information Technology's full network use statement. |

Intellectual and Cultural History of the United States, 1890–1945: The Rise of Consumer Culture
In this seminar, the sixth of the series Intellectual and Cultural History of the United States, 1890-1945, Professor Casey Nelson Blake describes the consumer culture of the 1920s and Middle America's ambivalent embrace of it, particularly as portrayed in Robert and Helen Lynd's sociological study Middletown. He also examines critiques of this new American ethos by such intellectuals as H. L. Mencken, Sinclair Lewis, T. S. Eliot, Margaret Mead, and Malcolm Cowley, and concludes by examining the fate of the Harlem Renaissance in the hands of mainstream consumerist culture.
