Fire Alarm Interrupts Finals
Tipster Daniel Tyner-Bryan is reporting that just a few moments ago, the fire alarm started going off in Hamilton, thereby interrupting finals and forcing all the students, teachers, and bluebooks onto the lawn outside. Stand by for updates/photos and tip us (bwog@columbia.edu) if you have any.
UPDATE 7:31 PM: Tipster Srijata Chattopadhyay informs us that the fire alarm was triggered by a trashcan fire on the third floor women’s bathroom.

wondering what they were there for when i got meself a delicious hamdel sandwich.
an inconvenient truth…that’s funny.
so did someone pull the alarm to avoid their exam??? college kids…they’re just like high school kids!
No, I smelt something burning / smoke as I was descending the stairs from the 7th floor.
No, there was an actual fire on the 3rd floor bathroom women’s bathroom…complete with smoke.
the question remains: did someone set the fire to get out of an exam??? Sometimes pulling the fire alarm is pretty hard, arson may have been easier.
Bomb threat is how kids used to do in high school, for real.
They figured it out though and they stopped evacuating for bomb threats or something.
but YO CHILL. it wasn’t as dramatic as bwog makes it seem…damn sensationalists
i’m sure there was raaaampant cheating
Better a fire truck than the Whaaambulance that came into 407 IAB during the History of the Presidency final at 6:50 and loudly complained about our scheduling and bitched at our TAs to get us out of there in 5 minutes because she had to start her test on time.
there’s a women’s room on the third floor of hamilton?
I thought there was just a guys room on the third!
hawkmadinejad needs to stop trying to cook his dinner.
YO. Trashcan fire? Is it that cold in Hamilton? Us engineers don’t know.
odd floor women’s bathrooms on the side of the buildings where all the offices are….
learn yo’ bathroom locations!
in hamilton hall has not worked since it was liberated years ago.
i always knew srijata was a mad arsonist… barnard girls trying to burn columbia down…
for srijata… even though she’s a member of the clergy and an underhanded Seik leader…
Anyone know why there are 5 cop cars on 114th now, around Broadway dorm?
Josh Schwartz is not on Senior Wisdom.
there is a somewhat big time drug dealer who lives in hogan
are you serious? bwog find out please!
French exam + fire + frisbee = awesomeness – chairs (which suck anyways, all exams should be written while standing or lying on the ground)
is CULPA dead??? ARGH!
bwog should do the right thing (or possibly the wrong thing) and host culpa on its server..
We discussed the possibility of moving CULPA over here with their staff, but they very politely declined, citing their own plans. It looks like it’ll be back up soon anyway.
there were cops on Broadway 8, NYPD cops not campus security
anybody know what’s up?
anyone ever get word on what happened there?
hit it, woman with smokes, stressed out that cant leave class, need the answers….smokin’ in the girls room….you dig…
hit and run…out
anyone got a word for love handles that i could use in an academic paper? Writing about bodies, need to refer to that specific piece of anatomy…coming up with nothing…
The inguinal muscles? Or are those just the cool lines that converge on my schlong?
provides “Informal name for the excess of fat around the waist of men and around the thighs and hips of women.” Also: fuck handles, muffin-tops.
plz post teh context!!!
guys, how about culpa for senior wisdom? dude’s been slacking off all year.
the skinny is, bon hiver was forever ago. it blindsided me when it came, though i was safe in the stacks. but anyway, culpa is dead, the wolves flumed it up, leaving us creatures fearful of being eviscerated by unknown profs. we must team up and fix culpa. at least for emma.
really curious about this Broadway 8/police thing someone’s talking about…
What’s up (or down) with CULPA — is it officially a thing of the past or just a victim of neglect? And why gone when we need it most?
We want a Josh Schwartz senior wisdom!
in this country??
