About Us

CULPA (Columbia Underground Listing of Professor Ability), founded in 1997, is a public platform for students at Columbia University to anonymously review courses and professors. Our mission is to provide utility to students by facilitating honest, unfiltered opinions and discussions on the academic experience. The platform is moderated by current students to consistently deliver up-to-date information on courses and professors. As of November 15, 2022, CULPA is a service of the Spectator Publishing Company operated by Spectator's Product and Engineering teams. CULPA began distributing course guides in print in 1932, with Professor Guides handed out to students on campus. In 1997, CULPA launched its first website, CULPA Online. CULPA joined Spectator Publishing Company on November 15, 2022.

Spectator Publishing Company is a non-profit educational organization chartered in 1877 and independent from Columbia University. It publishes Columbia Daily Spectator, The Eye, and Bwog.
