We know you have all been eagerly awaiting to hear what Bwog did for spring break.  Well boy do we have some riveting stories for you.  Ok maybe not.  Bwog did have some very interesting experiences this break whether in NYC, at home, or in some far away warm place (loljk).  As always,  be sure […]

ESC met last night to do their ESC thing. We can only speculate that SEAS puns abounded… We also sent energetic engineer Aparajita Maitra to get the actual facts. It’s that time of the week again. With elections approaching, ESC is back from spring break and in full swing. Yesterday’s ESC meeting began with a very […]

Bwog just got this tip with the subject “I AM THE SADDEST.” So are we, man. #fighttheburgerarchy. This coming a few short months after Deluxe discontinued $5 hotdog Tuesdays.

Bucket List represents the unbelievable intellectual privilege we enjoy as Columbia students. We do our very best to bring to your attention important guest lecturers and special events on campus. Thursday is a university holiday, so there are very few lectures scheduled this week. Our recommendations are below and the full list is after the […]

The U.S. and some of its allies have suspended Russia’s membership to the G8.  This is almost as big a deal as when Regina got kicked out of the Plastics. (New York Times) The three parachuters who dove off the WTC Freedom Tower last September just surrendered to authorities.  Watching the video actually made our […]

We have for you something special, something dark, and something painful. It is possibly the worst game you will ever play, or at least  generally one of the most mediocre. Honestly, it’s just a bunch of random Columbia references on white-square sheets of paper but we appreciate Cards Against Humanity for making it acceptable to […]

We hope your spring break was relaxing, fun, engaging, and/or generally dope.  If it was, and if it happened to inspire you to write, come share you enthusiasm with your friendly neighborhood snarky student online publication!  We’re meeting tonight at 8pm in 505L (walk into the SGO and look left). Come listen, write a pitch, […]

We know that rising sophomores everyone needs a little help with housing.  The system is confusing and it’s unclear who you ought to talk to if you have specific questions about how to get things done.  Thankfully Bwog is full of housing curiosity and we’ve been working hard over the last few weeks to compile a list […]

“When you play the game of Columbia Housing, you win or you die.” —Cersei Lannister Whether or not you’re ready for it, Housing 2014 approaches. Lottery numbers are now up, which would probably explain why half of your floor is already crying. If you haven’t yet looked at your number, take a few moments to […]

Russia wants the US to know that by convening a G7 summit the US is doing absolutely nothing useful.  US officials respond with “what’s next?” (NYT) Remember Kony 2012?  Remember the underwear incident? Remember forgetting about Kony 2012? Well some people didn’t, asked what’s next, and now the US just deployed 150 special forces troops to find […]

We received this video of a party in the John Jay laundry room from freshman Matteo Leibowitz. Let’s just say that this is the most awkward party we’ve ever seen (certainly not on the Grisham level)—you really have to see it for yourself: We originally thought it was another propaganda video from CCSC, but that […]
