It’s not often Bwog takes pity on the young masters of the universe of the Columbia Business School. They’re territorial with small spaces, and not terribly warm to the idea of mere undergraduates purchasing food in Uris. But still, this week is not a good week for the b-schooler. Here, observe as they stand in […]

Hillary Clinton at Barnard, Spars for pay raises. In debut, Sparing nothing for Clinton’s Barnard speech. The Mothers of Harlem trusted Mr. Rangel. That girl’s shoes are totally hideous. Halloween, Ricky’s (neé Kim’s) are a girl’s new best friend.

Oh look, the Spectator has launched its latest venture into the blogosphere. This one’s called Spectacle, and it’s an arts and entertainment blog. Ahoy, Spectacle! (Fun fact: years ago, Spec‘s entire A&E section used to be called “Spectacle.”) So far there’s been disparate chatter about movies, video games, and food, among other things. Fare thee […]

Tonight marks the second Blue and White and Bwog joint meeting of the year. Interested parties new and old are encouraged to attend — especially those with a knack for writing, artistry, business-savvy, editing, and technological know-how. We’ll be assigning stories and accepting pitches. 9:30 PM, in the basement of St. Paul’s Chapel. We look […]

Hey, welcome to this liveblog of Hillary Clinton speaking about pay equality at Barnard. Bwog’s thankful this thing is starting late, because we were a little late getting to the James Room in Barnard Hall, where about 60 students are now watching a livefeed of the podium at which Clinton will speak on a large […]

Welcome to the first in a series of analyses designed to determine the best in a category of chosen food product! In the coming weeks, we’ll be taking a critical eye toward such controversial delicacies as ice cream, espresso, bagels and margaritas. But today, we’re going to talk a little bit about miso soup, and […]

Bwog’s a little late with this item, but we didn’t want any more time to go by without congratulating the Columbia men’s soccer team on their 3-1 victory yesterday over UC Santa Barbara, who were ranked 6th in the country (and who won the national title two seasons ago). Despite being outshot 22-7, the Lions […]

First-year correspondent Jason Kruta went to the Lower East Side yesterday to check out the 8th Annual International Pickle Day.  The New York Food Museum sponsored the Eight Annual NYC International Pickle Day bonanza in the Lower East Side. Pickles of every shape, size and type abounded, from your run of the mill Kosher Dill […]

Compared to last year’s all-star lineup (Ian Buruma vs. Martin Amis! A master class with Robert Hass!) this year’s New Yorker Festival is oddly underwhelming. In any event, there are some things that should prove interesting and worthwhile. Here’s what we think they are, not including things that are sold out: Friday, October 3: Race […]

The Good Ship Spectator seems to have updated every section but News. So, with that in mind, let’s read and arts and sports and the like: Pisticci is a partisan restaurant! So, about Obama’s stance on ROTC… Oh, right, ServiceNation.  Men’s tennis is lookin’ good And a preview of everyone’s favorite football team, the University […]

At tonight’s CCSC meeting, the CCSC announced its first-ever set of official referendum protocol — until this point, nothing on student polling had ever been formalized, at least within CCSC.  According to the memo passed out at the meeting, CCSC is developing a committee to set poll regulations. According to VP of Policy Adil Ahmed, […]

Yes, you read that right. Sources confirm that representatives from the CC, GS, and SEAS student councils, in conjunction with SGB, the College Democrats, CQA, CPU, the Hamilton Society, and the College Republicans, have been meeting since school began to discuss plans for a student referendum on the return of Naval ROTC to campus. At […]

Reason magazine has a recent interview with “King of Vegas” Libertarian Vice Presidential nominee Wayne Allyn Root (the fellow at right who appears to be marrying his own dog) in which he demands fellow CC ’83 grad Barack Obama release his Columbia transcript. Join us, as we take a look at some other baseless accusations, […]

Exciting news for heartbroken Kim’s devotees: Bwog just spoke to a lady at the Butler reserves desk, and it seems many movies from the ill-fated video store are being re-located to Butler’s media collection.  The Butler employee says she’s not sure what exactly they’re acquiring and when, but does think it’s going to be “a […]

Discount Department Stores Don’t let the promises of Dolce and Gabana and Manolos fool you.  Invariably, you will search through piles of strewn polyester before […]
