Quick Spec

• Columbia basketball actually won a game. Make that two. Important ones. • We’re mad as hell, and we’re not going to take such measly financial aid anymore! • Amibigously named departments like University Systems, Enterprise Systems, Technology Infrastructure, and Client Services control our lives, e-mail. Which might be a good thing. • “Fuck-buddy communication […]

Freshmen Laid Up

Now, we all know that lackadaisical first-years are prone to getting locked out of their rooms. Or sexiled (Yes, sex does occur at Columbia. We estimate at least five instances of sexual intercourse since September—-all coming Saturday night after Columbia’s last second victory over Princeton in basketball). But Bwog just learned of a different kind […]

Movie filming at Columbia! No, the Olsen twins aren’t making their glorious return—yet—but Columbia may catch glimpses this Wednesday of Robin Williams, that Felicity girl, hottie Jonathan Rhys Meyers, and that cute kid from Charlie and the Chocolate Factory filming August Rush.

Marriage à la mode

Rumor has it that two CC sophomores, both gay, are getting married — or maybe, got married this past week (not quite sure which). The reason? Columbia offers better financial aid and free summer housing to married students. Looks like Facebook needs a new relationship category: marriage of convenience. — Donna Loffredo

Word from a Varsity Show source is that set-up for tonight’s West End preview displaced a group of mourners fresh off a memorial service.

Apparently, this year’s Varsity Show features nothing more than block letters in front of a black background and what sounds like the theme from Backdraft. Intriguing, at least in a Phillip Glass minimalist sense, but the Bwog hopes the producers […]
