Reminder: Lolcolumbia submissions are due by midnight on the 4th. And we’re for serious giving away $20. Bwog’s gotten numerous entries so far, and one Loldavidjudd seems to be the frontrunner.

Barnard and Sex and the City alum Cynthia Nixon at Le Monde for brunch this morning. In unrelated news, Le Monde sucks.

Ex-freshmen Rob Stenson and Mike Molina have captured exactly how Bwog was feeling last night at 1:00 AM when, locust-like, a swarm of 2011ers descended upon Ruggles.  It was terrifying. 

A bouncer at one of the area bars that Bwog frequents tells us that all bars around campus are getting ID scanners within the next two weeks. Furthermore, according to the buzz: Columbia’s footing the bill. They must really hate us…

Advance intel says the site looks really good.  Although it’s not that hard to beat CollegePublisher.  

We rushed to get the Orientation Issue of The Blue and White to you this week, only to have the print release held up by red tape. But we’ll still be dangling bits of it in front of you for the next few days while we get the issue online. Today: navigating the cutthroat world […]

Your parents might still be willing to pay your bills and do your paperwork, but the sooner you take it on yourself, the better. Longtime tipster and Lehmaneer Tao Tan kindly wrote up these simple guidelines to avoid financial ruin. Scroll down, there’s a lot. Part I: Set Up Your Banking. When you come to […]

What’s larger than a breadbox, brightly colored, and totally delicious (some might warn mysteriously so?)

New Yorker contributer, neurologist and bearded man Oliver Sacks has been appointed “Columbia artist”, the first position of its kind. You can read about it here.

212, Ferris, and your other favorite Lerner eats are open. They might have opened a day or two ago, but Bwog is still excited about the unlimited-topping salads in 212.
