At Columbia, students are taught to challenge each other’s ideas and deeply evaluate the validity of their own beliefs and thoughts. That being said, we can’t really think of anyone who would disagree with the statement below, found in Hamilton 707. Speaking of sex finals, you may have noticed by our new poll that we’re […]

If websites were small children, CourseWorks (or, more aptly, CourseWorks’ mom) would be hosting one epic pizza party. Sadly, no website lives forever, and now with a full decade under its belt, Coursework’s newest incarnation is retiring its predecessor. Over 1,200 courses currently use the new CourseWorks, and all University classes will transition by Spring 2013. […]

Seems as if things having been quiet on the Roa-llie front since their last encounter, and Bwog can only conclude that they’ve decided to part ways. While our favorite cub seems content with bachelorhood, Millie, heading out for a night on the town in this picture, seems determined to start over. Spotted by Hannah Goldstein

In Actual Wisdom, Bwog blatantly rips off (and simultaneously promotes) another of our features, Senior Wisdom, to bring to you some seasonal advice from seasoned men and women of our academy. So, just in time for finals, enjoy the  knowledge, memories, and cheese preferences of our  faculty. First at bat is John McWhorter, who has graced Columbia […]

Yesterday, Bwog’s Senior CCSC Correspondent Sarah Ngu explained a big shake-up in the council meetings. Today, she analyzes what this year’s Council has accomplished so far, and what’s left to be done. Here’s the list of initiatives that have been pursued this year (along with relevant Bwog coverage), and the council member responsible. Bolded indicates […]

The rumors are true: P&W Sandwich Shop, Bwog’s favorite lunchtime haunt, is closing. Shocked and appalled by what we hoped was a cruel finals prank (remember Hawkma?), Bwog called over only to receive confirmation of the tragic tip. P&W is owned by the same family who operates Hungarian, next door. Due to “lease termination,” P&W’s last day will be […]

People don’t give a shit, they never have.” Randall Balmer, Evangelicalism: “Thank you so much for being interested and coming to this class. If you […]

It’s finals! You’re hungry. Like, prehistoric hungry. Not sure what that means? Find out at the last Live at Lerner of the semester from 12 to 2 pm in Lerner Piano Lounge. They’ve tricked the place out with—we kid you not—a mashed potato bar. You’ll be able to caveman carbo-load to your heart’s content, without facing […]

Every morning until the end of finals, you’ll find Bwog in bed. Join us for a few minutes as we contemplate the damage done by yesterday’s procrastination, and sheepishly discard empty Cheeze-It boxes before our suitemates awake. Remember always: tips@bwog.com. Bwogline: In light of reports that New York City windows are shedding their steel bars, […]
