Tons of fried stuff from JJ’s in the McBain lounge – you don’t even have to sit through all of the C ’08 class council debate (though it might be amusing). Just don’t trip over the CTV camera cords on your way out.
Seniors with bad lottery numbers just discovered whether redemption could be found in Senior Regroup. Regroup was subdued this year; everyone had planned out their responses to a low number beforehand, in an attempt to gain entry into one of the coveted remaining two Hogan 5-person suites and four remaining EC 5-person high-rises. Tammi Lee […]
Bwog Correspondent Jim Williams reports: An unfortunate typo (or, rather, what I hope was a typo) in today’s Spec article about the Center for Broken Thought’s inaugural event claims that the movement is “inspired by thinkers like Nietzsche, Bataille, Artaud, and Shamu.” Yes, Shamu. The whale from Free Willy. Had the mistake been caught and […]
Overheard following Friday night’s Fruit Paunch show in Furnald lounge. Two guys walked into the the first floor bathroom, which is not labeled Male or Female. Guy 1: Wait, so IS this a guys’ bathroom or not? Guy 2: (in an abrupt tone) I dunno … let’s just be quick about it!
Tomorrow, Stop Hate on Columbia’s Campus will hold a rally on Low Plaza at 2 p.m. SHOCC’s full press release is after the jump.
2:50 p.m. Girl to her female friend in line: “I’m actually glad we’re not in Hogan, I wasn’t really into the idea. My ex-boyfriend lived in Hogan.” Friend: “Wait, didn’t he graduate like two years ago?” Girl: “Yeah, he did, but there’s still, like, sex in the walls.” 3:12 p.m. Four guys in a huddle, […]
The Bwog is pissed at whoever this loser is trying to get naked pictures of Columbia girls over AIM. Mostly because the Bwog really does have a naked picture photo assignment due, and now nobody believes us. We know you do, though. Just send those pictures on in to bwgossip@columbia.edu and we’ll make sure they […]
In last week’s Engineering Student Council elections, 67% of students voted for direct elections. 17% of students voted against direct elections. 15% of students abstained. Yesterday, the ESC voted to turn down direct elections.
Spec reported last fall that the Cathedral of St. John the Divine would let Columbia and AvalonBay Communities build on the Close (the parcel of land bordered by Morningside, Amsterdam, 110th, and 113th) in exchange for rental income. Today, the New York Times reports that AvalonBay will build a 20-story, 300-unit apartment building on the […]
As Bwog was taking a shortcut to its French class, it discovered this wonderful display of charity in the tunnels. And although it’s not uranium, it’s clear that someone down there really cares.
From a senior class e-mail: SENIOR FUND First, for those of you who have graciously given to the Senior Fund thanks so much for your help. Your donation is helping Columbia to keep its high levels of academic rigor, maintain our diverse club interests and eradicate financial aid! [italics added] Um? Bwog just paid somebody […]
As of noon, all 6-person, all-single EC townhouses are gone. Who got the last EC townhouse? The Blue and White‘s very own editor-in-chief and publisher, with number 1836. 6 person all-single high rises are still available. Booyakasha!
Do you fondly remember Housing’s older, uglier, purpler website? Do you yearn for its collection of residential hall floor plans? Have you been trying to compare the nuances of the Woodbridge C line and the Woodbridge F line, but only in vain? Well, we have dug up the virtual tours for you! (We’re nice like […]
This weekend the Bwog’s John Shekitka interviewed Peter Capainolo, a curator of ornithology at the American Museum of Natural History and a licensed falconer. That’s right, he’s a licensed falconer! How did you first become interested in falconry? I grew up in eastern Long Island, which at the time had all oak forests and farms. […]
