As we heard in January, Google Apps (“Lionmail”) are slated to replace Cubmail. It’ll be called Lionmail, which is like cubs, but grown up. Everyone will get Lionmail by 2012, but 1000 lucky students will score it in mid-April, as part of the trial “Phase One.” If that interests you, sign up for the lottery that they […]

Update: The dressing is balsamic not ranch, the dessert variety is extensive, and the line is halfway down the ramps. You should be here.

As the great William Shakespeare once wrote, “This above all: to thine own self be true. Apply to be the next Bwog Arts Editor.” Okay, so we kinda butchered that—which is why we need someone who knows about the arts ‘n stuff to join our staff and make sure we don’t do it again. So […]

Lerner was just evacuated after a fire alarm sounded. No need for real alarm, though, dear reader, as the entire Bwog staff was able to exit the building safely after that meeting you should’ve attended. When several of them tried to re-enter to find out what was going on, they were told to “just get […]

Welcome back! Now that it’s time to exercise your minds again, it’s time to exercise your distraction capabilities! How long can you spend admiring this image and coming up with a clever comment to go with it? And because it’s about 80 degrees outside, this week’s picture comes with a symphony of colors and tap […]

We know you missed the spinny office chairs and unlimited grape choices of the SGO this past Sunday night. And, because we just can’t wait another 5 days, we’re meeting tonight at 8:30 pm!

And unlike the weird clown photo you’ll see to the right, it’ll actually make you laugh! The National College Comedy Competition (sponsored, bizarrely, by Wendy’s) is on the hunt for the funniest college kid in America, and they’re making a stop here in good ‘ole New York. Columbia’s NCCC Comedy team faces up against NYU tonight […]

Exotic traveller Renée Kraiem returns to report on Monday’s SGA meeting. So here’s the good news: last night SGA welcomed distinguished guest DSpar, and a hearty crowd present to catch a glimpse of Barnard’s very own First Lady.

New York was a state with 29 Congressional districts, which brought peace and prosperity to its citizens. On Monday, the 22nd and 9th were obliterated. It was all part of redistricting, a process that redraws the borders of Congressional districts every 10 years based on population changes and politics. Since New York lost population from […]
