Bwog is currently livebwogging from the Low Steps, where we (like many of you) stumbled upon a rock concert. The music was loud (and catchy) as Bwog yelled around in vain trying to figure out what the concert was for. We first ran into Jeffrey Rodriguez, SEAS ’10, of the Intervarsity Christian Fellowship who explained […]
Along Broadway this afternoon, a hodgepodge of Harlemites and Columbia students staged a small-scale demonstration between wooden police divides. The protest was centered around a lawsuit filed by Nick Sprayregen, Manhattanville businessman, and Norman Siegel, his Madison Avenue lawyer trying to get the City to revisit the Manhattanville plan that they already approved in light […]
An anonymous tipster reports that as of today, the Columbia Music and Arts Library is now allowing undergraduate students to actually check out (as in, take them home) CD’s and DVD’s for up to two weeks, as opposed to only being allowed to sit around on the 7th floor of Dodge inconspicuously ripping classical, jazz […]
Relatively unreliable paper The New York Post is reporting that a grand jury has subpoenaed all Columbia’s records on Madonna Constantine, citing financial records and personnel records of particular importance. The investigation into last year’s noose-hanging incident has yet to pinpoint any possible suspects, while the plagiarism investigation remains tightly under wraps, with both Constantine’s […]
Satow Room Bureau Chief Martha Turewicz reports back from last night’s CCSC meetings. Spoiler alert: Calvin Sun and Lindsey Lazopoulos hotly debate a theoretical photograph of Michelle Diamond theoretically shotgunning a beer. The first thing I noticed at the meeting last night was that the audience was packed, since all the CCSC candidates were obligated […]
Currently, a guitarist and a bald tenor are singing outside of the Lerner Piano Lounge, attracting onlookers from all around. Upon approaching the scene, the fragrant smell of free food grows and one finds uniformed Housing and Dining people sitting around trays of deliciousness. So far the troubadour has serenaded Fair Alma with “A […]
Today is final opening day at Yankee Stadium, as the team will be moving to a new stadium across the street in 2009. The Yankees will be playing against the Toronto Blue Jays starting at 1:05 PM. Reggie Jackson will be throwing the first pitch, and there will be all kinds of opening/closing ceremonies. If […]
Bwog was curious about the large-ish metal movie trailers currently outside the Starbucks on Broadway. We spotted a man who appeared to be fixing a faulty hinge on a door to the trailer. The man informed us that the trailers were for the movie Gigantic. “Who’s in it?” we asked. “John Goodman!” the man replied, […]
The topics for these opinions were chosen specifically because they were not timely. Something tells Bwog that Aristotle would not have enjoyed his name next to this picture. We’re all part of Columbia! Yay! Wait up guys, John Adams was President? Somebody should publicize this fact on an HBO miniseries! The words of a sage: […]
DJ Tanner, the Pike-based hip-hop group comprised of Peter Capraro SEAS ’09 and Michael Kosdan SEAS ’09, has just released “The Experience,” in which DJ T thoroughly reps Krebs and company, citing, among other things, their fresh tattoos and an ability to rock gold hearts like ice cubes. While you can hear the tune here, […]
Every Sunday, as you roll out of bed and head to brunch, Bwog will be doing the same. Except we’ll be writing about our brunching experience in hopes of improving your next one. Bwog’s Sunday Brunch will run every Sunday. The Place: Community Food & Juice The Location: Broadway between 112th and 113th Expect to […]
Several vendors are giving away free pizza to Columbia/Barnard students? Oops – looks like the word free needs to be in quotation marks. Joel WHO for Class Day Speaker? Off-campus Flex is real? And, minus a few technical problems, it actually works? Obama is still committed to visiting every single college in New York City […]
Bwog loves food, especially cheap food. Bwog also loves Brooklyn. Indeed, Bwog loves Brooklyn Restaurant Week. Here, Bwog offers a selective assortment of some Brooklyn Restaurant Week stand-outs. If lines are long at the participating restaurants, Bwog provides a few noteworthy non-participating restaurants. Unfortunately the borough publicizes rather humbly and Bwog just learned of the […]
Tipster Jenny Lam has good news for fans of Freaks and Geeks and Spider-Man: “Stalkers, plan accordingly: I was at the Whitney Museum administrative offices for an internship interview this afternoon. I’m signing in at the security desk, only to look up and see “JAMES FRANCO” written above my name. I turn around, and, sure […]
Bwog daily editor Hillary Busis sends the following tip our way: “There are adorable Girl Scouts selling Thin Mints, Tagalongs, Samoas and shortbread cookies with a name I can’t remember [Trefoils!—Ed.] outside of the church on the corner of 114th and Broadway right now. $3.50 a box is a little steep, but worth it.” Tipster […]
