Here in the darkness of finals, not one, but two time-honored procrastinatory activities are available for you tonight. You can either catch Orgo Night for politically incorrect jokes in Butler, or nourish your all-nighter at Barnard’s Midnight Breakfast — the theme this year is Electric Breakfast, which means that you have to do the electric […]

If you haven’t bought groceries in the last two weeks because Westside isn’t in Butler, you’re in luck.

We all hate Butler campers — and we all are Butler campers. One brave bitch going crazy, though, has had enough with the vicious cycle and the abandoned backpacks. Don’t be scared by the latent rage present, though; the heart at the end means that they really do like you, don’t worry, and they’re not […]

Bwog would love to greet the morning with you every day during exam period, but we really don’t want to leave our nest of blankets in the Diana bed. Our compromise is to invite you into our cocoon for a few minutes to share some tidbits. Maybe you can return the favor by sending your […]

Update: Deantini just gets cuter and cuter. A tipster reported that along with mini candy canes, he’s sharing some amazingly dorky classic comments. Ex: “We have a class called Lit Hum??? *chuckles at own joke*” and “I don’t have *anything* figured out!” Keep chuckling, good sir. We know that your 10th hour in Butler seems to […]

Writing papers on three hours of sleep and two shots of espresso is hard, but slaving away in Butler has its benefits–Bwog’s got the composition process almost down to a science. To help you through this finals season, here are some helpful guidelines for getting your thesis statement from your brain onto the page. First […]

Two girls were seen plundering Morton Williams of its supply of Pellegrino sparkling water bottles—but they had one of those tubs you use to move your entire amount of possessions into your room in the fall. Maybe they had just gotten out of a two-seat Lambo and were really thirsty…?

Bwog sent Daredevil Dancer Maud Rozee into the heart of Barnard’s dance studio 2 to report on  McAC’s highly anticipated “Zumba Study Break with President Spar” event. I had mixed feelings about the idea of Zumbaing with President Spar at first. The sensible part of me asked “why would I want to embarrass myself in […]

For the past few fall semesters, PrezBo has taught a class on free speech. This year, the class focuses on constitutional freedom of speech and press in the United States. Bwog was tipped a neatly chronological selection of the best out-of-context quips from our elegantly coiffured president’s only class. 9/24: “Get your note pads out—in […]

In an effort to be of continual service to the Columbia community—and to avoid our collective mound of work—Bwog brings you a series of narrative reviews for the questionably labeled baked goods available at your favorite only Butler dining option: Butler Cafe.  (Daniel’s?)
