Just in, from an anonymous tipster: “I’m at work in my humble cubicle in the Journalism School right now.For some reason Danny Glover is sitting next to me on his cell phone discussing some movie that he wants to be 2 and a half hours long and financed by $18 million.”  As long as you […]

Finally, it’s over: CCSC election results are in, and the victory parties underway (continuing 2009 President George Krebs planned a big one, the Sophomore Semi-Formal in Low, at which he was spotted breaking it down with a crown on). Bwog’s poll of earlier this week proved a mostly accurate indicator, and there were few surprises: […]

Bwog voted (after fighting its way through the halo of handshaking candidates outside Lerner). Have you?

The grass is back!

Bragging rights for the talented seventh Fixing a (near meteoric) hole where the rain got in “Sometimes I’ll try to swipe and miss [the turnstile in Lerner] and catch it right at [my] groin.” Edit:  Online voting A LINK IN HONOR OF THE FACT THAT THE BANQUET IN HONOR OF THE KING OF SPAIN WAS […]

We didn’t get pictures like last year, but word is that acceptance letters went out today, meaning that there are going to be a lot of angsty posts over here and excited youngsters the world over refreshing their e-mail obsessively. CC and SEAS combined got over 21,000 applications–that’s a lot to reject! Welcome, class of […]

David Iscoe reports on secular advantages to Kosher-for-Passover food. In many ways, for food lovers, religious dietary restrictions are horrible.  It’s not that I can’t imagine a life in which I couldn’t eat a cheesesteak, it’s just that I imagine that life would suck. The laws cut both ways, however. Sometimes, religious laws act as […]

(Spoiler warning: It is almost certain the comments will be full of spoilers) An “100% anonymous” tipster reported what is likely the first of several puzzles which may will appear over the next few weeks.  People who enjoyed Myst back in the day might be reminded of the game and realize this is nowhere near […]

“Columbians” miscredited, discredited, and, well, just plain credited, worldwide: Spike Lee has certainly stalked our campus before. First, it was to use Hamilton Hall in a scene of Malcom X (to serve as Harvard, of all places). Later, Bwog discovered he was ducking into the same building for evening Lit Hum sessions. Now, a Chicago […]

The first issue of Eclectica Esoterica – the magazine that features your weirdest, wildest, and generally most interesting papers – is out. Bwog inaugurates the new publication with a customary quicking (since the magazine is in PDF format, all links point to the same source). MF Doom, meet linguistics (p. 4) Zen and the art of […]
