Columbia has created a University-wide student group website that allows students to browse, join groups, and participate in discussions. Student group leaders can post notes, events, and send messages to their fellow members. Among the most useful tools on the site is the events calendar, which can be filtered using many different criteria (e.g. filter for study break events to score free food!).

@quick question where are event postings on bwog?
@Anish We’re in the process of installing a new events calendar. It will be back soon!
@Anonymous when is the activities fair?
@Hooah This Monday, September 13, from 2-6pm on College Walk and the surrounding area. You won’t miss it.
@Escapee Did they test this with student group leaders? Did they ask to see what features should be implemented? Did they get feedback and respond to it?
Or did a “select” committee of students get a sneak peak which they weren’t allowed to discuss or offer feedback at and that’s it?
I have no doubt that the intentions of the bureaucracy are good, but I have every reason to question their process. It’s 20 fricking 10? They should have been offering something like this 8 years ago.
@Hooah Just to answer your last question: yes, it is 2010.
