Well, it happened: Dean Zvi Galil has decided to leave “the best job in the world” and accept the position as President of Tel-Aviv University.  Bwog and SEAS are sad.  Mass emails at Columbia—and indeed, Columbia herself—will never be quite the same. Bwog knows not what to say. Emptiness abounds. Resonates. Echoes. Echoes. Echoes. Galil […]

If administrators get their way, SGB will move next year to the oversight of […]

The Midnight Hours don’t belong in New York City. The band, fronted by Michael Harper C’07 and Lauren Marie Hunter ’07, manages to throw its listeners back to Austin circa 1973 while avoiding any cliché.  Rounding out the group of not-so-Texan Texas outlaws are Chris Tomson C’06 on lead guitar, Chris Baio C ‘07 on […]

Oh, it’s beautiful. The Chrysler Building and Empire State Building are familiar […]

In which freshman correspondent Dan D’Addario explains the perils of (gasp!) leaving campus to watch a movie at Midtown. On a recent Sunday night, I decided to indulge a strange passion of mine – going alone to the movies. I think I decided this was a great idea when I read a New Yorker essay […]
