What to do now that mom’s not around to clean your clothes? Try Parachute! This is not an ad, but a review, of the new campus laundry […]

Donald Trump might have made a miscalculation in thinking that the Mexican government would pay a few billion dollars to build a wall designed to keep its citizens out of America.

Soon enough, stubborn and yellowing ice will give way to uncovered lawns, budding flowers, and the truest indicator of spring: Bacchanal. It might seem distant now, but maintain hope and eventually campus will be congested, disorganized, and presumably, awash in the sounds of good (???) music.

Security Council, North Korea’s latest launch attempt was, unsurprisingly, called out. Experts […]

As you’re probably painfully aware, the SuperBowl was yesterday. And, as you are also probably painfully aware, the most recent problematic short-lived meme is calling the SuperBowl the Superb Owl. As a patron of sports, owls, and (occasionally) memes, Bwog has titled this week’s field notes accordingly. Predictably, some of us are more superb than […]
