The arrival of a quarter of the undergraduate population has expanded the pool of dateable singles. In the interest of facilitating romance,  Bwog culled through first-year flesh to find these strapping young gentlemen.

Either one look like the guy of your dreams? Email bwgossip@columbia.edu with the single’s name in the subject line, put in a sentence or two about yourself, and if our bachelor picks you out of the teeming hordes, the Bwog will spring $5 for a coffee date (we’re in a recession). That’s a tall coffee each, at least.
