Bwog likes reprinting emails from admin. Especially wholly noxious ones.  We are watching you. Date: Thu, 12 Apr 2007 18:03:53 -0500    From: Michael Mallick <mgm3@columbia.edu>  Subject: failures to deliver senior essays to sponsors      To: seniorenglishessaywriters@columbia.edu It seem quite a number of you — this year’s senior essayists — did not follow the […]

Belle Jar has been busy for the last, oh, two months. But she’s back, this time tackling that most challenging of the bedroom arts: cunnilingus. As always, send comments, questions, and propositions to bwogsex@gmail.com. To any straight man reading this: count yourself lucky, because it won’t happen again.  It’s no small thing for a lesbian […]

Figure out who’s posting the jaws around campus? This pair was spotted above the scaffolding from EC to Revson Plaza, and it’s starting to get unnerving. Friday afternoon edit: We noticed a plastic container in Lerner lobby bearing a poster covered in similarly orthodontic motifs. It also has a sign that asks passersby to donate “literature for prisoners.” […]

Sometimes, when you feel like everything in life is passing its judgment on you, it helps to do a little judging yourself. The following is Bwog correspondent CML’s pilgrimage to the Bookstore in search of superficial literary gratification. Putting an iPod through the wash and receiving one of those “What are you doing with your […]

The Bacchanal Concert on the Steps is coming up next Saturday, April 21st…which means it’s time for someone to spoil the surprise so everyone can get down to bitching.  Following the likes of Kanye, De La Soul, and Common: this year’s performers are Blackalicious and Del Tha Funkee Homosapien.    Who? OK, both are established, […]

First, find a partner and align the soles of your feet together in Bokononist ritual: Kurt Vonnegut dies at age 84. “Blessed are the merciful” in a courtroom? “Blessed are the peacemakers” in the Pentagon? Give me a break!”- Cold Turkey “Before you kill somebody, make absolutely sure he isn’t well connected.” – Slaughterhouse V […]

The College Dems had their elections tonight. Given that the top two spots were uncontested, Bwog didn’t feel like sitting through them, but here are the winners: President: Josh Lipsky Vice President: Chris Daniels Treasurer: Stephen Cox Secretary: Isabel Broer Members-at-Large: Jon Backer, Anna Brower, Kevin Mckenna, Nate Morgante, and Kate Redburn

Someone who must truly adore the sculpture Tight Rope Walker (on the bridge over Amsterdam) has placed a mattress spraypainted with the words “Just in Case” beneath (thanks to Noam Harary for the photo). Bwog guesses that, after thirty years without a spotter, the spindly statuettes can finally relax. Unless they fall in, um, any other direction…  

We LiveBwogging this shit*  6:00 PM – it has not yet started. 6:07 PM – this is still the case. I will say when it is not. 6:10 PM – First words: “is this working? yeah.”  One history professor is taking over for another in introducing the event.  He says it was an easy decision. […]

In the spirit of keeping Facebook reportage to a minimum, we’re not going to tell you about the changes that went down today on the site. We are, however, going to complain vocally about this little flub. Bitch here.  

Students for a Democratic Society—that group that shut down Columbia and other Universities across the country in 1968—generated some buzz last week, when about 20 students met in a Kent classroom to hash out plans for their return (sitting in, Bwog found the Young Spartacists particularly entertaining). “The New SDS” even landed the cover of The […]

Low press briefings, Bwog is aware, are typically not very interesting. This one didn’t disappoint–PrezBo took a few softball questions from a few journalists in his low, almost subsonic tones–but we did get to meet Mr. Kluge himself, a charming old man whose death will bring the University more money than we can really comprehend. […]

$400 million University Cold on Hot Jazz (ADP’s statement after the jump) Stoffel Leads SGA Poll, Spec Happy Not about Porn: “Molly Shannon, Doggy Style”; “Swashbuckling Can’t Save Pirates“ Pitching A Softball Strength, Hardball Weakness “Friendly Fire” Not Bad on the Home Front A Tragedy Averted! 

We’d heard that there was going to be a super big announcement tomorrow in Low Rotunda. We figured that it had to do with money. We didn’t know it was going to be this much money: according to the Wall Street Journal, media mogul John Kluge (the minority scholarship guy, Forbes’ #25) is forking over […]
