This Valentine’s Day, Lerner lit up, featuring all kinds of campus performance groups (dance and music), and something about a bounce house, here reviewed by Josh Dillon.  Having heard about Glass House Rocks for weeks, through upperclassmen and through its Facebook event page, I go to Lerner at 8:00pm not really knowing what to expect.

Even though the weather is surprisingly warm today, winter is still here. In that spirit, Star and the Sea (Dominique Star, CC ’13, and her band) have released their first music video, shot by Bernhard Fasenfest, CC ’16, called “Winter in New York.”

The Student Governing Board’s Executive Board, representing approximately 100 campus groups, issued a statement yesterday discouraging the use of the Faculty House until appropriate negotiations with workers have been made. Last week the Student-Worker Solidarity coalition braved the elements to rally for their cause of “economic justice” for local workers, particularly now for Faculty House workers’ living wage, though […]

There is no information yet regarding the event, but Bwog hopes nobody was hurt.  Update: A witness reports that a student was injured in the crash and taken to St. Luke’s. If you have any other info […]

Bwog firmly believes that being single on Valentine’s Day is only as depressing as you make it (i.e., as depressing as it is for the entire rest of the year). But there’s no reason not to take advantage of the day of love to treat yourself to a good Thursday night of drunkenness. For those […]

This Valentine’s Day, Bwog wants you to stop grumbling and be happy.  We enlisted Alexander Pines and Alexandra Svokos to cover both sides of the argument—Alexander has barely been single since he was 14, while Alexandra has avoided relationships since she was 14.  Will you please stop posting Adele gifs, please? Alexander: Sure you like […]

A couple days ago, Columbia played host to an erotic cake competition (or should we say “compeTITion?”). Scroll through to see some of the dirty, dirty deliciousness that you missed out on.

While the New York Times is reporting that traditional dating has been unceremoniously tossed out the window, this Valentine’s Day we asked our buddies over at DateMySchool to set the story straight. According to their data, courtship is very much alive and thriving.  This year, 54% of Ivy Leaguers say their ideal first date is traditional dinner, […]

Don’t forget to drop by Lerner tonight for GLASS HOUSE ROCKS 2013: SPACE JAM! Glass House Rocks stars at 8 PM and goes until midnight.

With so many new outlets to let our creep-flags fly (lookin’ at you CU Admirers), we walk a fine line between loving devotion and serial-killery obsession. This person walks that line like a pro: She’s the best. If she were a cult, I would join. How sweet…?  I’d follow you anywhere via Shutterstock  

Sometimes don’t you just feel like Columbia is showering you with love? Okay, okay, so it’s more like grudging acceptance but you take what you can get, right? Well, today Columbia is bursting with free candy and Valentine’s goodies! The Columbia Queer Alliance will be handing out free candy on College Walk today from 11 […]

Who gives a shit about Valentine’s Day when there might be something wrong with our glorious Hawkma?!?! An injured hawk was spotted just outside of Mudd, surrounded by police tape. While Public Safety and NYPD are already on the scene, Animal Control is expected to arrive shortly. If you have any info about our beautiful, […]
