MORNINGSIDE HEIGHTS — A naked Columbia University student survived an eighth-floor leap Monday night from a university dormitory, sources said.
The 19-year-old, whose name was not immediately released, may have been on drugs when he jumped from the 14-story Wien Hall at 411 W. 116th St., near Morningside Drive, about 8:30 p.m., sources said.
He plummeted to a third-floor landing, and was listed in critical condition at St. Luke's Hospital, an NYPD spokesman said.
School officials said the boy was enrolled at the university, which began its final exams on Monday, according to student publications.
