In the spirit of tradition, a Bwogger by the name of [redacted] goes undercover in Columbia’s class of 2023 group chat to see what the youths are up to.

I remember barely a year ago being swept into the craziness of receiving my Columbia admissions letter. Part of that craziness involved me joining my class’s giant, 500-person group chat. Back in the day, in 2018, I thought to myself this is a weird fucking group chat. Yet, somehow, I think the incoming freshman class is even weirder.

It started off with lots of questions.

After a while, I realized people in this group chat straight up do not know what Columbia is. 

There are literally people from other schools in this group.

They also don’t know about cities. 

People had some cute stories to share from high school!

…and some advice.

Some people even thought they were going to be rescinded.

It turned wholesome when people started sharing pictures of their dogs.

Which of course prompted discussion about rats. 

And also brought to my attention someone named “Ask Me About My Counter-Capitalist Propaganda.” 

Which made me realize there’s also a fucking robot. 

And what does it do? This:

There’s so much more, but this documentation is already ridiculously wrong. So I’m just going to leave you with some of my favorite chats from the class of 2023 Groupme!
