All of those hours you slaved and slaved away in the dim glow of your computer screen writing pages and pages of literary analysis have finally paid off! Well, if you got an A, at least. But we know you’re all super smart. From now until close, the Village Pourhouse is offering a free “Scholar’s […]

Update: The anonymous artist is Kyle Hom, SEAS ’14. Snaps, Kyle! A rather crafty tipster submitted this piece of lovely Photoshop GIMP art today. It’s just the latest in a range of t-shirts, mugs, and cufflinks (we don’t get it either) inspired by a British Ministry of Information poster from the Second World War. Originally […]

Adam Klein—the last of the students arrested in Operation Ivy League to begin pretrial proceedings—was denied diversion to treatment in a Manhattan courtroom today, reports Bloomberg. Had he been granted diversion and completed the program successfully, Klein could have avoided a felony charge on his criminal record. “Obviously we’re disappointed,” Klein’s attorney, Alan Abramson, told […]

Update: A tipster sent in the gingerbread replica of Low Library now pictured at right. We commend the effort and wonder how PrezBo will like his new sugary habitat. The seasonal studybreaks are proliferating! Head over to the 1st floor Broadway Lounge for gingerbread house building. The organizers, Habitat for Humanity, are making bold claims […]

Peyton Bell, CC ’13, who was struck by a car on Broadway last Sunday, has been released from the Columbia Presbyterian Neurological ICU (Internal Care Unit). Becky Bell, his mother, gave the following statement: Peyton is still in the hospital and is out of ICU and doing well. We are hopeful for a full recovery, […]

You’ve seen it before, and you’ll see it again: an elusive group of Columbians start to go a liiiiittle bit crazy during finals season. At this point, we’re pretty sure everyone’s just trying to comply with tradition. In any case, it makes for some quality overseens. The latest chapter, for your procrastinating pleasure:

It’s a long one! Our Satow Room Bureau Chief/Muckraking philosopher queen Sarah Ngu has lots to say about Sunday’s CCSC meeting. The Decision At the majority of student council meetings, a remarkable amount of time is spent discussing unimportant details. Recognizing the state of “complacency” in CCSC, President Aki Terasaki made the executive decision (read: it was […]

Update, 12:33 pm: The event is well underway. There are indeed milk and cookies, but the atmosphere is less than convivial and certainly not conducive to munching. Fifty first-years huddle around a teacher, who said to the silent, scribbling students, “Okay, now construct a thesis to go along with these points.” Bwog knows how this sounds—but […]

Every day until the end of finals, join Bwog in bed as we survey our mountain of undone laundry and regret yesterday’s late night snack decision. Remember always: tips@bwog.com Bwogline: Student opposition to financial recruiting on campus is having tangible effects on Ivy League schools. Goldman Sachs has canceled info sessions, possibly due to disturbances by […]

On September 19th, 2010, Pat Blute and Zak Dychtwald debuted BwogWeather. For one sweet semester, you knew to dress seasonally. We even heard BwogWeather used as a pickup line at 1020. To those of you who asked 1. “I can haz bwogweather again pweas?” and 2. “Anyway, where is BwogWeather?,” with a special shoutout to this fool, the […]

Bwog literally runs on the human spirit. If you have lots of human spirit that you’d like to earmark for Bwog’s consumption, you should be a Daily Editor. Dailies get to ask people probing questions, get into events for free, have their words on the Internet, and consume lots of Westside cookies at meetings!* If […]

Columbia is rolling out a brand new program for this year’s class of graduating seniors. The program (first hinted at by PrezBo at a Fireside Chat last Febrary) offers an opportunity for up to 10 students to become “Fifth Year Fellows” by “adding a year of liberal arts education” at one (or more!) of Columbia’s […]
