Hoping to avoid a freshman flop era? Steer clear of Bwog’s past mistakes and heed our advice so you don’t foul up your first year at Barnumbia.

At our beloved Bookstore, you can buy strange and ostentatious shit.  Why?  Because Roar Lion! But apparently their selection isn’t only limited to Columbia apparel.  You can also purchase the inconsistently capitalized “Columbia Lions adidas TShirt.” But it’s not ‘Columbia Lions’ at all!  It’s actually a Central Connecticut State University tee.  Go figure, their colors […]

The New York Times is reporting that federal investigators uncovered the existence of some crazy shit at a prestigious Columbia brain-scanning lab: Scientists regularly injected patients with a commonly used low-level radioactive substance that might have had traces of dangerous chemicals.

Cupcakes: The all-purpose graphic! Perfect for film reviews. And articles about cupcakes. Barnard flooded with drawings of stick figures burning bras Also: an actual flood GSSC VP resigns, explains “I have an off-campus apartment now […] I can only do so many things at once.”

Collegeboxes screws up deliveries, not that’s it’s anything new. U.S. News screws up Barnard’s rankings. How much can Bill Clinton tell you about saving the world? Spec tells PrezBo and Shapiro to be careful on this one… This is just terrible!
