We know adjusting after break is pretty tough, but you can beat the back to school blues by coming to the Bwog meeting at 7 pm tonight! You’ll probably be trying to put off doing work anyway, so instead of cleaning your room for the umpteenth time, head over to the SGO on the 5th […]

We know you’re frustrated that you have work to do while some people get to relax, but don’t get too angry on your schoolward journeys, or you might get arrested. (Buzzfeed, Gothamist) Getting back into the swing of things is going to be Misérable but hey, at least some people in the cinema world are happy. […]

If you’re finally at home (or stuck on campus) and the Cowboys vs. Redskins game hasn’t exactly done much to provoke the Thanksgiving spirit, it’s good to know that there’s still something to be thankful for… Thanksgiving feasts!  Let the tryptophan commence!  

Thanksgiving is a very special holiday in which we get to celebrate America’s past and all that we have in this life.  More importantly, though, we get to eat a lot.  No matter where you end up this Thanksgiving, we want to know about it.  Send us pictures of your dining table, turkey, homemade pie, […]

The Internet is not always a nice place. However, one group of anonymous do-gooding Columbians is trying to change that.

Just like much of Columbia’s population, Bwog will be starting its Thanksgiving break a day early. Some people/things, however, aren’t so lucky. NASA’s Curiosity won’t stop for a little bit of turkey and stuffing; he’s “found something,” but the space agency has yet to reveal what exactly is “one for the history books.” (Gizmodo) Nudists […]

Last night, as per usual, SGA’s Rep Council met in the Diana Café amid leftover muffins and pumpkin bread. Despite a slightly decreased attendance due to impending festivities, quorum was reached and things happened.

The Palestinian side is standing in front of Low, holding up flags, signs, and yelling names of civilian casualties. Both groups are standing their ground and handing out flyers. The […]

Engineers have governments too! They’re just like you, except they’re engineers. Here to open your eyes as to this week’s meeting is Bwog’s report, by constant correspondent Aria Sharma: Dean Goldfarb, Interim Dean of SEAS, was present at this week’s meeting to discuss the state of the school, which can pretty much be described as […]

  Violence between Israelis and Palestinians continues. Both sides are attacking one another and claiming casualties while a diplomatic solution is sought and risk of an Israeli invasion intensifies. (CNN) Google Fiber, the nationwide broadband service Google has just begun rolling out in Kansas City, may actually raise the United States’ current position as 24th […]

At Columbia, theatre comes in all forms; from huge musical productions to the smallest student shows, Bwog loves theater!  This weekend, Blackbox Booster Roberta Barnett headed out for a Columbia University Players fall show: An Evening of One Acts.   High above Ferris and Roone in Lerner is a small black box theater on Lerner’s […]
