Recognizing this frustration, we have put together a short list of important buzzwords & slang to know at Columbia. If we’ve missed […]

October has officially brought in the frigid air as everyone shifts indoors to their favorite bars and joints to avoid being cooped up in a library stocked with people you know aren’t studying either.

Junzi Kitchen, a business started by Yale alums, will be bringing Northern Chinese cuisine in a fast-food format to MoHi in early 2017. The restaurant will be in Deluxe’s former location on Broadway between 113th and 112th. The menu consists of bings (which are wraps) or noodle bowls which can be topped with meat, vegetables, […]

Trump reacted to a New York Times article calling out his tax evasions…and he didn’t deny it, in fact, he and his campaign said it made him a “genius”. Well, he just secured the vote of every fiscally conservative (and blind) American. Does this mean normal folks can now say “screw taxes, I don’t gotta pay […]

You wander about life, contemplating cosmos (but then deciding not to because Columbia has been forcing you to do that already). It isn’t really raining, but it sprinkles to mock you. If you are feeling (you probably are) anything like […]

What does it feel like when even your running mate thinks your opponent is more qualified for the office than you? In an interview with MSNBC, Bill Weld, the libertarian vice presidential nominee, accidentally spilled the wrong cup of tea: “I’m not sure anybody’s more qualified than Hillary Clinton to be president of the United […]

Remember our EC Archetypes? This time, Bwog is taking a look at the personalities in your core (or “foundations” or “nine ways”) classes.

As rosy-fingered […]

Looking forward to escaping the hell of Carman bathrooms by living in a newly-renovated dorm next year? Well, you may not be so lucky. Apparently, some of these nicer bathrooms have already been destroyed due to debauchery/water leaks(?). Staffers sent in evidence of their dorms’ trashy toilets that they were told would be renovated. Drunken […]

Yesterday, politically savvy Bwogger Tamara Barriot took time to assess whether “The Donald” means what he says about getting the Latino vote. As refreshing as discussing the viewpoints of our two political idols can be, this was not Tamara’s first rodeo. Any debate regarding Donald Trump’s care for Latinos will likely spark controversy, and yesterday’s was no […]

In one of the last “firsts” of the Obama administration, Congress just overrode Obama’s veto for the first time.
