In your quest to take your parents out on one more expensive meal before they leave, you may have noticed that good old Vareli, while keeping the exact same appearance, sneakily changed its name to Domain. Changes. What does this mean for you and future family visits? Restauranteurs Marcus Levine and Alison Herman find out. […]

Get it together, NYC cops. (Again.) In other news, one more excuse not to hit up Times Square. (New York Times). “Vertically challenged:” this is probably the best/worst reason we’ve ever seen for not riding a Citi bike. Those damn tall-biased bike planners (Gothamist). DON’T WORRY: it looks like Justin Bieber’s obnoxious Instagram was probably […]

Happy Sunday night! For the first time this semester, Bwog trooped over to Butler to ask random and personal questions to the brave/academically dedicated souls who were already spending their evenings there. (Full disclosure: Bwog hasn’t been to a library this year except to buy a Naked smoothie.) We asked the people, “What are you […]

Another school year, another season of Columbia Athletics.  Max Rettig brings you the week’s highlight: The Lady Lions beat Fordham yesterday in the Columbia Invitational’s second day by a score of 3-1. Moye-McLaren put up a double-double (kills and digs, not points and rebounds). Three frosh-girls also pitched in for the Lion victory, with Jennifer […]

The Wanted actually wrote this song from Bwog’s perspective and it’s about us being glad you came to our meeting. No sexual double entendres, just us prospectively celebrating your attendance at 7 pm in the SGO on the 5th floor of Lerner. Bring your ideas, your burning desire to write/design graphics/to punch us in the […]

Bwog’s Brennon Mendez demystifies one of Housings many mystifying policies. No more swipe access for commuter students. Some students make the rational decision to live off campus so they don’t have to deal with residence hall nuisances. Well, Housing has made the irrational decision to revoke dorm swipe access to commuters, who now have to […]

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. As always, feel free to mention any events we may have missed in the comments section (and/or mock our typos) and we’ll add them. Our recommendations […]

A tipster found this delightful annal(your mind went there) on the bottom of her Carman bed. I believe he’s referring to how many times he’s been to BJ’s Wholesale Club. “I’m just another notch in your bedpost, but you’re just a line in a song”

  Boy Meets World life lessons. (Buzzfeed) What’s a hipster to do? (NYT) Oh no, Facebook is testing auto-play video advertisements for their mobile app. (Huffington Post) Ghost towns from around the world. (Gawker)   Bwog via Bwog. 

Typically in listserv fuck-up posts, we remind you to never ever hit “reply all.” This time, however, we have a cautionary tale of checking the “send” line so you don’t reveal your egotistical jackass-ery to the full listserv and end up offending someone. Spec’s Publisher sent an email tonight that was supposed to go to […]

In honor of Saturday night, we’d like to help you plot your disillusionment with Columbia/NYC/being sociable. Bwog’s Lovely L’Artiste Lauren Beltrone brought this to fruition.

You may not know it, but Columbia is home to the recent winner of a national Campus DJ competition. Sophomore Nick Perloff goes by DJ Flaxo in his on-duty hours, and we sat down with him to hear about his dream venue and find out whether DJs still have nice headphones. Bwog: Why Flaxo? Nick: […]

Ever wonder just what it is those mysterious University Senators do after they’re elected in May? Bwog does, too. To find out, we spoke with Jared Odessky, CC ’15, about why the Senate exists and what a handful of undergrads are doing on it. Bwog: Can you tell me a little bit about the Senate […]

A few days ago we got this tip: “Bwog! Sofa stealing is getting out of control in Carman…. I’m too lazy to take pics but come check out the posters in the Carman stairways.” Both the tipster and Bwog were too lazy to check out the posters, but these sort of shenanigans happen every year so we […]
