Bwog would have liked to do a QuickSpec this morning—nothing like making snarky comments to shake off a final-induced haze. To its dismay, no Year-in-Review issue appears on the Spec website, and Bwog had to wait ’til lunch today to actually read one in print. It’s 20 pages, almost 11 of which are ads. The rest is a rehash of coverage that you’d know if you’ve poked your head out of Butler more than a few times this year.
Save paper. Read The Mobius Strip instead!

@but did you see? BOLLINGER RESIGNED.

@... no he didn’t…
but I find it amusing that Campbell called it the “Lee Bollinger regime”
@wtf I wish Bollinger would resign. Then Larry Summers can be our President. That would be awesome.
@re also look it up in the oed.
“till” predates “’til”.
it’s not an abbreviation.
@but in that case it shouldn’t have an apostrophe in front. either till or ’til, but not ’till.
@well I wanted to post online about inaccuracies because there can be no letters to the editor this year. What’s the explanation for not putting this issue online?
@don't worry It will be up soon. ( I think) you can also, still email the editors.
@also, Since ’till is an abbreviation of the word until, it has one L, you asshats.
@uh i think it’s rare for a year-in-review to break any news. “rehash” is part of the definition, yes?
@bwog defender yeah, but that doesnt mean that in addition to the review stuff they could have added current articles – maybe summarizing how the manhattanville debate stands currently, any interesting news during finals.. something new, at least..
@you know, newspapers don’t pay for themselves. how often does the b&w come out again, hmm?
@to the specie above yeah, but the B&W also isn’t wasteful with the number of issue it prints. why print a 6 page issue with 2 pages of actual content on wednesday if you know no one’s going to pick that shit up?
@duh cause you make money on it. doesn’t matter if people pick it up
