Having gotten such a great response to our previous Myers-Briggs personality type article, we decided to take on a more universal experience of students everywhere – putting up angry signs in the dorm bathroom, when your fellow hallmates have terrible bathroom etiquette. Yes, this is what angry bathroom sign you will write depending on your personality type. ESTP: […]

The beautiful house that served as the setting of Call Me by Your Name is on sale in Lombardi, Italy. It’s fair game: anyone willing and able to purchase it can become its new, loving owner. The only caveat is that it costs $2.7 million. As broke college students, it’s hard to come up with that much […]

The overlap between Lit Hum students and Carman residents is considerable enough that new Bwoggers Michael Wang and Zoe Ewing calculated the fastest way to get from one end of campus to the other.

Our final personal of the 2018 season: if you haven’t seen Gloriana at a football or basketball game, you’ve probably heard her. She cheers on those Lions even when they’re disappointing her to tears, and she’d cheer for you, too, if you went out with her! Email tips@bwog.com if you want us to set you […]

Even though Valentine’s Day is over, it’s never too late to find someone to cuddle up with this cold, (possibly) snowy post-Valentine’s weekend.
