Get yourself down to the vending machine in Lerner right by the entrance to the Party Space and you, too, can swipe an iPod shuffle. Only three left, though, so hurry.
When reached for comment, Felix Gillette, CJR Daily reporter and author of the Slate profile of J.J. had the following to say: “I’m concerned that the long hours, endless travel, and lack of a stable home life may finally be catching up with J.J. Jumper. This latest incident looks like nothing less than a cry […]
Quorums kill. In the battle of the back handsprings, it’s Beth Katz 1, Amphibians 0. Bollinger continues to evade, slices white bread. Plus: The rise and fall of Michiko Kakutani…
This isn’t the first time Columbia and J.J. Jumper’s stars have collided. A Columbia Journalism Review reporter did a bittersweet profile of the homeless frog for Slate almost a year ago. It seems like J.J. takes it more than he dishes it out so maybe we aren’t so mad at him for destroying $6,500 of […]
“Kula kula kula van sola sola sola…” –Multilingual EC security guard, K. Davis, communicating in Cantonese with the Wai Lee delivery man, 2/26. — Neeraj Pradhan —
Last Friday, after years haggling over bullet points, the University Senate was finally scheduled to vote on a new sexual misconduct policy. Unfortunately, nobody showed up. Well, at least the professors didn’t. The Bwog has learned that the resolution could not come up for a vote because more than half of the senators played hooky. […]
CU Snacks is kind of like that spaghetti pot they sell on TV with the drainer built into the lid: it’s a good idea but it solves a problem you never really had. Plus you’re pretty sure only White trash orders it. Don’t believe us? Fresh baked cookies delivered to the West End. Kind of […]
Maya Rudolph – the Barnard first-year, not P.T. Anderson’s baby’s mama – had a very funny list published over at McSweeney’s last month. Further proof that Columbia kids can bring the snark with the best of ’em.
Bwog, in a fit of teary-eyed, second-semester senior nostalgia, decided to attend our first ever Columbia sporting event last night, the men’s basketball game against Yale. And while we lost in a heartbreaker, JJ Jumper still managed to provide a moment of amusement. Not to be confused with Roar-ee, Columbia’s own lamely named mascot, JJ […]
The Bwog would just like to say that the “Chuck Norris Anti-Defamation League” posters showing up around campus (we blame Fiji) are playing off a joke so stale it’s time to make french toast out of it. Even Chuck Norris doesn’t care all that much and just wishes you’d buy his book. Now, a Chuck […]
Anna Corke reports that yesterday afternoon Dodge Hall had to be evacuated due to an electrical fire. The fire was caused by an art studio class on the fourth floor that had plugged in over a dozen electric heaters to keep their nudes from getting cold. No word on whether the nudes were allowed to […]
For real. Information Session Thursday, March 2, 6:30 p.m. RSVP online at The School of Continuing Education website.
If the Bwog had one wish for February, it would be for the owner of the Schermerhorn bike to come forward. At least they’ve found a better use for PVC pipe than some people.
Overheard after Columbia’s ten-point victory over Brown in Friday’s basketball game: “Too bad for them you can’t pass/fail in basketball.” –Gautam Hans–
We all just got sold out to the man. As “‘required by U.S. law (Title 13, United States Code, Sections 141, 193, and 221),'” Columbia Housing and Dining has turned over the names and addresses of two dormfulls of students to the Census Bureau. Expect the men in black to come a’callin’ tomorrow. Fun fact: […]
