Witnesses Report “Exorcism”; ResLife Remains Mum

On November 12, Bwog received an anonymous email with the subject line: “Exorcism on Broadway 9.” The email detailed an incident that occurred between 3 a.m. and 5 a.m. on October 25th, that involved several students who the sender identified as Christian Koreans — despite our attempts to reach various groups, there’s been no way of verifying this. There was also a Barnard student present who had been signed in earlier that evening.

According to the email’s sender, the Barnard student had expressed concern for her  health, and so an “exorcism” was performed. Details about the procedure remain scant, though the girl’s repeated shrieking eventually caught the attention of a Broadway RA, who stopped by the scene in an attempt to break up the gathering. The RA’s attempts to interfere were brushed off, and another ResLife staff member, who was described as being a part of the group, told the RA to allow the students to continue with what they were doing. RAs for Broadway and Ruggles have confirmed that the incident occurred in the early morning hours of Oct. 25th, but few know the details of what happened, and none are willing to discuss it on record.

RoomHop: The Sunny Side of the Street

RoomHop is back!  It’s one of Bwog’s favorite features, in which we showcase rooms that are awesome, unique, or just plain pretty.  If you know of anyone with a distinct abode, send us a tip at bwog@columbia.edu and we’ll send a gnome with a camera.

College dorms are notorious for being drab and depressing.  Many, including those in the infamous McBain shaft, barely ever see daylight.

This is hardly the case for the cheery Broadway room Bwog visited earlier today.  Claire and Sarah (long first “Sar” as in a pirate “Arrrr”), CC ’11, were quite dissatisfied with the default color of their room and decided to give it a makeover.

The room is almost rectangular, with one diagonal where the door is, making it look much bigger than its meager 165 square feet.  It overlooks Broadway and sunlight pours in through the huge windows.

Someone Call H-APPY

 

 

In the East Sky lounge of the Broadway dormitory a keen observer will find exposed wires protected by the pen-written text, “Tampering will knock out AC/Heat.”

Violations will result in electrocution and a slap on the wrist.
