What can be said with some certainty is that Mr. Obama lived off campus while at Columbia in 1981-83 and made few friends.

He got a degree in political science without honors. "For about two years there, I was just painfully alone and really not focused on anything, except maybe thinking a lot," he told his biographer David Mendell.
