“Gave my bulldog a scooby snack every day. Here is my mom helping him flex on instagram”

If you’re like us, you just escaped from the treacheries and pitfalls of living with your family over the break. We’re ready, full steam ahead, for the new semester and the new year…at least until our first problem set. As always, you can contribute your own field notes to tips@bwog.com.
