Can one drop a column from a table?

Can one drop a column from a table?From Oracle8i one can DROP a column from a table. Look at this sample script, demonstrating the ALTER TABLE table_name DROP COLUMN column_name; command.
Other workarounds: 1. SQL> update t1 set column_to_drop = NULL;
SQL> rename t1 to t1_base;
SQL> create view t1 as select from t1_base;

2. SQL> create table t2 as select from t1;
SQL> drop table t1;
SQL> rename t2 to t1;

select * from sys.dba_unused_col_tabs

-- Drop column C (different method):

select * from tt where to_date('2004' || '/' || tmonth || '/' || tday,'yyyy/mm/dd') > mdate
