What better way to get in the spirit, (pun intended), then to head to Lerner’s Piano Lounge today from 12pm-2pm. For these two spooky hours, Live At Lerner […]

The good: Technology is getting really cool. This means we are one step closer to Smart House. (Yahoo) The bad: Congress still can’t get their stuff together. Seriously guys, play nice. (NYT) The ugly: This snake-like, eel-like, oarfish was found at Catalina Island. And suddenly Catalina becomes my least favorite salad dressing. (GrindTV)  And don’t forget to vote […]

Last Friday night, pathfinder Josh Dillon spent 24 hours in Butler. While this might be something one does everyday, Dillon the Explorer tends to go to bed around 11 pm, so this was kinda a big deal for him. I am the type of person who needs a full 8 hours of sleep to function. […]

PrezBo wasn’t in New York Today! He’s lecturing on affirmative action at the Univ. of Illinois! Snatched paraphrases of his talk, from someone who was there: “If legacies and athletes want to argue for easier admissions they can do that, but certain races can’t.” “America still has healing to do because of our past… It […]

Last night, DSpar and SGA joined forces to host a Fireside Chat with the woman who pretty much has it all but wants you to know it’s ok if you don’t.  Luckless lottery loser Kyra Bloom sat in and listened up.  Tomorrow we’ll be posting The Blue and White’s review of DSpar’s new book. Admittedly, I volunteered […]

Midterms rage? Roar/whatever sound the hulk makes

CU Dems have been circulating a petition calling for information on how Columbia deals with sexual assault. “Transparency” is a word we hear thrown around pretty often, so truth seeker Joseph Rosales interviewed Austin Heyroth, CC’15, VP of the Dems, for some details. Bwog: Can you give a quick intro to the petition and the […]

Columbia’s own cello ensemble String Theory covered “Applause” by Lady Gaga, and it’s great. They were also covered by The Huffington Post, no big deal. Here’s the video:

The government is still shut down, but apparently they’re working on that. (WSJ) Luckily, the NSA is the one government organization that never sleeps — they’re too busy going through your email contacts. (The Washington Post) People explaining how they spent their last $100 is pretty interesting. Not like their last $100 ever, just their […]

This is something we don’t normally do, so please forgive us if we’re really awkward at it. Bwog officially endorses Conor Skelding for University Senator. We feel that he is the most qualified for this job and is the best candidate moving forward to bring some sort of progress to the university. We realize some […]

Special […]
