Even if you weren’t a Columbia student at the time of Operation Ivy League, you probably had an idea of what went down through different media sources. Almost six years have passed since the incident, but musician Kosmo Weston has kept it relevant by inserting sound bites from different news broadcasts and court hearings. His work is […]

I like to consider myself to be something of a NACElink veteran, personally. Over the past few months I have applied for nearly every position I’m even remotely qualified to do. Much of these have been of a typical nature: non-profits looking for volunteers to make copies, museums seeking researchers or administrative interns, office assistant […]

CULPA is your friend who has taken every class with every professor and can tell you how much of the reading you actually have to do, if the professor’s voice will put you to sleep, whether the class is worth taking, ect. Usually the site gets the most traffic at the end of each semester during course selection, […]

First “dog café” opens in California, offering customers an opportunity to interact with adoptable dogs in the same style as popular cat cafés.

After thoroughly appreciating last semester’s production of “Evita” by CMTS, our Arts Editor couldn’t pass up the chance to attend CMTS’s spring production of “Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street.” Still tone-deaf and still generally ignorant of musical theatre, here are his thoughts. The tale of Sweeney Todd is set in London in 1846, and […]

Today seems like the day that we’ll see people ugly-cry. Do you want that one, low-demand Woodbridge suite, or the last spot in Plimpton? Neither, you say? Well, you could try to find 8 people that you don’t hate and go live in Ruggles. Oh, you can only find 6 people? Whatever, add two people that […]

An all-junior group of 6 is looking for one more junior to fill their Claremont 7-person suite during junior regroup. The person will get a single. Email tips@bwog.com if interested!

In this next part of our introduction to the CC/SEAS Class of 2020, we decided to take a different approach. Sure, we could share all of the funny, shocking, and downright strange messages we had access to—and believe us, we have a lot of screenshots that didn’t make the cut— but somehow those short excerpts don’t seem to fully […]

Bernie attacked Hillary’s qualifications for the White House in a speech in Philly today. (NY Times) However, Hillary did visit New York yesterday, and even rode the subway (though it took her five swipes to get her card to work). (NY Times) Have you seen CMTS’s Sweeney Todd yet? (Look for our review later today!) […]

It’s an exciting year for prospective college students: several young women at the forefront of culture are applying to college, and the Class of 2020 has latched on to the hope that Malia Obama will be among their classmates next year. Some have gotten so excited about this idea, they’ve taken to the Class of 2020 […]

Location: 6th floor of Lerner Hall (115 St. and Broadway) Nearby dorms: Carman, Furnald, Schapiro, John Jay, and the LLC Stores and restaurants: Ferris, mainly Cost: $69,084/year Amenities: Bathrooms: We imagine that there is one, perhaps in an inner sanctum that is forbidden to us. AC/Heating: Yes. Kitchen/Lounge: They have the raw ingredients (dough) but little finesse. There is a hallway between the various […]

Hogan is gone. EC only has 6th floor doubles. Must be time for juniors to pick! We hope that you come out of The Cage feeling something, because that’s a good indication that you survived. Either way, we’ll be waiting for you on the other side, ready to provide comfort and/or stickers. Just make sure […]

Yesterday we showed you the first glimpse of Columbia’s Class of 2020 from the—now deceased—Lion Order [lion emoji] GroupMe, which included abounding enthusiasm for an idyllic scholar’s life and quite a bit of misguided aggression towards other schools. While we won’t deny those are the two things which Columbia prefrosh most prominently grasp onto in those strange […]

Get ready to feel a little more mediocre than you already did: New York high school senior Augusta Uwamanzu-Nna is the second student from her school to be accepted to all eight Ivy League Schools. Oh, and she got into MIT. (CBS) John Stamos as a crazy French Chef? The upcoming production of The Little Mermaid at the Hollywood Bowl […]
