Welcome

...et bienvenue !

The Columbia University Club of France was created in April 2002. It is University-sanctioned and duly registered as an association loi 1901 with the Préfecture.

Our Facebook page is now live! Join us... 'Columbia alums/students in France. (even if you're not actually in France).

• You can register for our mailing list by scrolling to the bottom of this page.

• As of last count, the CUCF had 723 members, 72% of the estimated alumni population in France. Help us track down the missing 28%: keep spreading the word!

• Some past events include: a CU250 gala at the Musée d'Orsay, a Champagne-tasting evening, bowling against the Harvard Club (now a tradition), a talk with Axa founder and former CEO, Claude Bébéar, and a night out to hear jazz wunderkind and Columbia undergrad, Peter Cincotti.

The Columbia University Club of France is a reflection of the University and its alumni: distinct, diverse, and dynamic. With more than 1,000 Columbians known to live and/or work in France, our mission, as defined in our statutes, is to:

• Promote the interests of Columbia University and all of its schools, in France;

• Organize academic and intellectual activities for Columbia alumni in France;

• Organize events to encourage socializing between Club members;

• Support the activities and the cultural leadership of Reid Hall, the academic representation of Columbia University in Paris;

• Maintain and strengthen the relationship between Columbia University and its alumni in France.

In short, our aim is to create a Columbia community here in France, ni more, ni moins.

Remember, this all works because of people's generosity -- including your own. Feel free to share whatever you can with the rest of the gang: time, energy, skill, you name it.

I look forward to seeing you very soon.

Warmest regards,

Julien Regnault IA01
President
