Our Senior Wisdom installation for the Class of 2016 wouldn’t be complete without a little wisdom from Barnard Babe and NSOP Queen Christina Ellsberg, who tells us about how you should get through your four years at Columbia. Name, School, Major, Hometown: Christina Ellsberg, Barnard, Anthropology, Historic Ossining Claim to fame: I’d like to say […]

Here comes some more Senior Wisdom for your reading pleasure courtesy of Tony Lee. Name, School, Major, Hometown: Tony Lee, GS, Visual Arts + Business Management, Tampa Florida Claim to fame: On my first Halloween as a Columbia student, I went to classes in full costume as the Invisible Man (1933 film version) all day.

Today is Make Some Noise, a spring concert thrown by Summer on the Hudson and Barnard. The event celebrates women in music with an all-female line up of students from CU, City College, and NYU. Head over to Crabapple Grove North in Riverside Park (located approximately off of 94th street) to get enjoy the show. While it is […]

Career development has been pretty fishy lately… with weird jobs posted on Nacelink, and the office’s awkward location on Claremont, one of our Staff Writers was pushed past her limit with her most recent experiences, described below.  I visited the Barnard Office of Career Development for the first time last week, when it suddenly hit […]

Today is Saturday, your break from a long week of sneaking fragrant Spaghetti Meatball HamDel sandwiches in Ref Room. Go outside and enjoy the weather! It’s not supposed to rain today; instead, the humidity will be at 93% without a chance of any sunshine all day.  Bwogline: KFC has officially launched its campaign for edible fingernail polish […]

Who can spout heartfelt advice, list types of cheese, and talk about working for Google – almost all in one breath? Why, Dan, of course. SEAS Senior Dan Schlosser is getting ready to leave this place, and this “Masshole” has some wisdom to share. Name, School, Major, Hometown: Dan Schlosser, SEAS, Computer Science with a minor […]

Per Bwog tradition, we sent two fresh-faced first-years to review Orgo Night. Sanam Jalinous and Asya Sagnak did not hold back, even surprising some other Bwog staffers. Is this Bwog’s next big scandal? CUMB probably hopes so. Bwog isn’t new to taking jabs. Better yet – Bwog isn’t new to taking jabs, especially from our friends […]

Minus this very interesting photo, we know how talented, subtle, and composed Benjamin Kornick is. Which is why we gave him a senior wisdom. So that now, the world will, too. But the question remains: Did he ruin Bacch, or did he save it? Name, School, Major, Hometown: Benjamin Kornick, CC, Sociology with concentrations in […]

At Columbia University, it can often seem as though everyone around you is killing it… and you’re… well… not. But most of the time, that’s all in your head! You just have to stay motivated. After all, in a week, this will all be over. Yikes, that sounded ominous, we just meant finals. Or did […]

The first day of finals are tomorrow, which means we have a gift for you tonight. It’s not a Sweetgreen discount code, nor is it our roommate’s adderall. Instead we give you this semester’s Orgo Night script (even better than the Orgo exam answer key). Laugh, share with friends, and don’t forget to be offended. Enjoy! […]

SEAS Senior Omar Abboud may not have ever done the goddamn readings, but he learned enough in his time here to teach us a few things–like that it’s probably time to put down the computer and go to sleep. Name, School, Major, Hometown: Omar Abboud, SEAS, Operations Research with a minor in MESAAS (much to my […]

We all know that Butler is far from the best place to be this time of year – it’s crowded, it’s stressful, and you can smell the stink of desperation from halfway across campus. So why not get out? You could go to Avery or LeFrak, attempt studying in bed (a tactic with mixed results) or […]

Should you stay or should you go? Well, if that’s not a rhetorical question and you’re asking about Orgo Night, the answer is: go! Tonight at 11:59 pm precisely, all hell will break loose in Butler 209: CUMB is putting on its 69th “semi-annual” Orgo Night show/demonstration/what have you. Bwog will be there, of course, […]

Some people are smart, but some people are *smart*. Barnard Senior Emily is one of the latter group and has some Jonah Hill-worthy tips on how to be as much of a moneyBALLER as possible during your time at school. Hint: smoking hookah in Hillel immediately ups your baller status 100 levels. Name, School, Major, Hometown: […]

The RA we all dream of shows us Taylor Swift videos and gives us Nutella when we’re crying after our first freshman Chem exam. CC Senior Peter Bailinson is this dream-RA. Read on for the warm, fuzzy feeing your Death-Metal-loving RA never quite gave you. Name, School, Major, Hometown: Peter Bailinson, Columbia College, East Asian […]
