FrancoWatch: Franco From Afar
Columbia’s new mascot James Franco hosted Saturday Night Live last night, and as many of you have told us, his opening monologue was all about life as a celebrity at Columbia.
Bwog’s been searching for this video online, but thus far we’ve been unable to find it. Still, here’s what we know: Franco was greeted by his RA (Jason Sudeikis) who sympathized with Franco about being a celebrity on campus. Apparently the RA is in the Funk Tones, “Columbia’s most popular non-tryout, non-lesbian a cappella group,” and can’t walk into Cafe 212 without being lavishly praised for his beat boxing skills.
There was also something about Franco’s CUID. Again, we’re trying to find this thing online, so if you know where it is, let us know too. (bwog@columbia.edu).

Can K-Wo be CCSC president? He’s way cooler than Krebs… and I doubt he’s an idiot.

No mention of NYU, Cafe 212 only real place mentioned also – no Java the Cup (although that would be cool) or Livingston Hall.
is Wallach, pre-donation from Ira.
I read that on Wikipedia.
It wasn’t funny at all. And he was fishing for applause when he mentioned he was going here, but only one person awkwardly clapped. Still cool to be mentioned, though.
