Free food 11:30am in Lerner and a little classier street fair action (at least compared to Saturday) all day on Low PLaza.

At promptly 3 pm at the Graduate School of Journalism, Sig Gissler, administrator of the Pulitzer Prizes, announced the 2006 winners. By announced, I mean that press kits that had a list of winners and other information about them were made available to those present. And by those present, I mean approximately ten journalists and […]

With all the coverage and virulent commentary on SHOCC, Bwog decided to talk with SHOCC member Anthony Walker to find out what the organization really stands for. B&W: Your web site defines a hate crime as, “any and all forms of speech, writing, literature, or expression that stereotypes, marginalizes, denigrates, and isolates an individual or […]

Merge, bitch, merge! NYPD confirms there’s no nightlife here. Wild Turkey huntin’ in Morningside Park. Somewhere behind closed doors, girls get the shaft.

It happens to the best of us. Happily, all of us at Bwog have faith that the 231st street station will find the strength in its heart to get through this difficult time, but only with the support of its MTA family and through learning to respect itself. Once the station regains belief in its […]

For those too lazy and apathetic and jaded by the godlessness of Columbia to go to church, the International Christian Fellowship brought the gospel to Morningside’s most degenerate pit of iniquity–the Low Steps. “In an atmosphere like this academy, we all want to believe that, given the right evidence,” one fellowshipper said, “we’re going to […]

Band members, would-be band members, and people who just like to wear skinny jeans and slip-ons congregated in lower level Macintosh at the WBAR-b-q this afternoon to celebrate the cream of CU/Barnard’s indie crop. And eat burgers and drink beer. Combined with lazing in parks and chucking around various objects, could an idyllic spring Saturday […]

From Gothamist.

Sometimes, being a good person just isn’t enough.

In which Bwog staffer Mark Krotov familiarizes us with the places you can find him when he’s supposed to be in class. I love inhospitable environments. When placed in settings that are unfriendly, unattractive, or simply odd, I find that I enjoy myself a little more than I do in a place that is comfortable […]

In today’s New York Times, everyone’s favorite Principles prof, Sunil Gulati, explains why you’re better off at Columbia than pursuing your dreams of soccer stardom. As if our Major League Soccer dreams needed any more dashing.

It’s Friday and the Bwog really needs a cold one. Or ten. We’ll start with Crackergate 2006. Tuesday a Bwog photographer posts the picture of “a hate care package” seen round the world. Thursday the same photographer tries to get in touch with Public Safety through the Bwog, eventually figuring out that’s what phones are […]

In which Blue and White film savant Iggy Cortez gives you another reason to love the French. This week’s selection is Read My Lips. If you, like many Columbia students, are waiting until the very last moment to fill out your tax returns, Jacques Audiard’s smart yet entertaining thriller-cum-noir, Read My Lips should provide both […]

Blue Java sells Mentos and Diet Coke- here’s something to make the floor waxers hate you.

Packed with more old women and men than actual Barnard students, the Women Poets at Barnard’s final Spring 2006 lecture was insightful. The Sulzberger Parlor served as the perfect space for the intimate and soft spoken reading of poetry accompanied by free samples of wine among other refreshments. The Women Poets at Barnard reading series […]
