Ugh, another Republican Debate last night. Now there are only four candidates–Donald, John, Marco, and Ted–and they seem like they’re being fairly nice to each other. (NBC News) An exhibition all about Barbie just opened in Paris, coinciding with Fashion Week there. Barbie’s changed a lot over her 57 years, but to us, she doesn’t […]

You may have read, and enjoyed, last week’s post about going high to First Year English. This week, one of our writers went to First Year English on a different kind of high: pill form. Less smoke, and legal. Bwog would like to note that the writer has a Xanax prescription, and took the medicine […]

Dudes have body image issues too (shocker of the century?), so it was only a matter of time before the “realistic Ken” was created as a counterpart to the revolutionary pseudo-Barbies that were designed with attainable BMIs and non-eternally-high-heeled feet. (Out) The only way we found out Nancy Reagan died is through this announcement that […]

As Bwog sits through our midterms this week, we’ve been amused with the sometimes hilarious, often extraneous thoughts which go through our heads. A Bwog staffer records their thoughts during an average experience of taking a midterm, inspired by true events. The beginning (75 mins left) OK what do we have here. I’ve studied for all of 10 minutes for this […]

The Furnald birds are chirping, students are stress eating, and unaffiliated children are running around campus. This must mean spring is slowly beginning to sprung. To get you out of your midterm slump, Momma Nature decided to bless us with some nice weather this week. Today, the high of 66 degrees. Oh my, that is […]

If you are new student at Columbia this academic year, you are required to complete the Sexual Respect and Community Citizenship Initiative by March 20. If you did it last year, you are merely “strongly encouraged to participate.” While March 20 may still seem like a far way off, it’s actually the last day of spring […]

Today is Michigan’s Republican and Democratic Primaries. Be prepared for a barrage of targeted political ads, out-of-context soundbites, and diatribes from your Facebook “friends.” At least the excitement will keep your mind off midterms.
