Last night in the Roone Auditorium, Orchesis performed Work Work Work Work Worchesis, a performance that lead to an “incredibly diverse and enjoyable night of art.” Bwogger Asya Sagnak reviews the performance, which will take place again tonight at 9 pm in the Roone Auditorium.  When I first found out about Orchesis being the largest performing […]

The month might be nearly over, but Bwog isn’t done dishing out campus horror stories! This time, Senior Staff Writer and midterm victim Asya Sagnak expands upon an unexpected experience in Columbia’s favorite prison/library. The clock strikes eleven.

Happy Halloween month! If you’re anything like us, you’re already getting your spook on in preparation for the 31st. But why wait, especially when Columbia is so heavily furnished with horrors all-year-round?

In honor of the fact that Columbia’s campus currently (remotely) resembles a winter wonderland, Bwog is starting a new campus archetype series: Snow Stereotypes. Bwogger and recent snow enthusiast Asya Sagnak kicks off the series with her account of a freshman seeing snow for the first time. It is the morning of Blizzard Jonas. A […]

Ah, our lawns. Our beautiful, green, collegiate, bourgeois lawns. Always there for us, whether it stays locked and serves as eye candy (that’s shade to you, Hamilton lawn) or provides our butts with quality cushioning and free space.

Who let the boys out of the sad, decrepit frat house/EC suite? And into an equally depressing fort on the Barnard Quad? This poor pledging tactic alerted the inner Gloria Steinem of Staff Writer and Barnard Quad-dweller Asya Sagnak to speak of these menacing men and their stupid demonstrations.  Bwog has received photos and updates […]

Wooed by the prospect of knowledgeable speakers, open debate, and free lunch, Staff Writer Asya Sagnak dutifully skipped a midterm […]
