This year’s Wigilia, a traditional Christmas Eve dinner in the Polish tradition, was organized by the Polish Student Society at Columbia and Barnard on December 8, 2012 in the beautiful setting of Sulzberger Parlor. The event was attended by about 60 Columbia and Barnard students and a few young alumni returning to meet their friends at the alma mater over a meal of coming together, as symbolized by an extra plate traditionally set for the “unexpected guest.”
