I lost my national ID card from Croatia, today or yesterday in Hamilton or John Jay. Huge reward if found! Contact rr2722@columbia.edu.

The fraternities with members involved in Operation Ivy League—Alpha Epsilon Pi, Pi Kappa Alpha, Psi Upsilon—will lose their housing come next fall, according to Spec. A source in Pike says that Kevin Shollenberger confirmed to the fraternity today that its brownstone will be emptied in the Fall; members of the other frats have said the […]

The results from the Task Force on Military Engagement’s student survey are in, and will not be officially released until tomorrow. While 11,629 students were eligible to participate, only 2,252 completed the survey. Check out the Task Force’s full ‘Executive Summary’ here, which contains survey results, the Task Force’s suggestions and Columbia’s history with the military. […]

Note: Here’s Drinking With Bwog… again. You may have seen it posted early. Oops! We hope you can forgive us for the egregious error, and sympathize with the occurrence of repercussions from an early Senior Night pregame. For the past few weeks, we’ve been going pretty easy on you guys with mostly basic recipes. This […]

In addition to our totally fresh, 2011, just-for-you ;) coverage, we’ll be bringing back some posts from last year that you might find helpful and also might not want to waste time searching for in the archives. Today, enjoy this retro Housing Lottery post from last spring. No one ever really explained it to us, […]

Last night, the Barnard Student Government Association’s first Town Hall of the semester asked some pretty lofty questions—what does diversity mean? What can diversity mean? What should diversity mean? Bwog’s very own Katheryn Thayer reports back with some answers. Minori Takahashi, the Representative on Diversity, welcomed the program’s participants with a short speech urging us all to embrace our […]

Even though Bwog loves hopping around so very much, we were curious to see what a lecture about another type of movement—”rolling”—entailed. So a few nights ago, Zoe Camp hopped/rolled over to the J School and attended “A Rolling Stone Conversation” to see what all the fuss was about. The name of Tuesday’s event at […]

In light of that ever-approaching midterm grind–oh wait, it’s already here—we don’t blame you for spending hours every day fantasizing about the impending spring break madness that will commence in just 10 short days. We’re all guilty of it. One Bwogger even confessed to ordering a bikini and one of those giant floppy sun hats […]

Yesterday, we had sun. Last night, we had wind chills. Two days before, it was sort of gray. This weather is confusing, but with any luck, spring will… spring (for real) very soon! In the meantime, you can act like it has already sprung by stocking up on delicious organic foods at the Greenmarket that […]

It’s been a very stressful week—sophomores made major decisions, everyone except for seniors chose 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, or none of their best friends to live with. Oh, and in case you haven’t noticed from all of our trite “Midterms are here!” ledes, midterms are here. We’ve brought you Brocrastination, kept you […]

The lights were removed from College Walk, which is kind of exciting! Here’s why: Columbia doesn’t feel the need to distract us from terrible weather with pretty non-denominational holiday decorations for the rest of the semester. So, maybe the weather won’t be terrible from here on out. Q.E.D. See the newly bare trees below:

Steve Jobs released a second version of the iPad yesterday. Other tablets cower. The highlights: two cameras (front/back), FaceTime, up to 9 times faster, and a 10-hour battery life. Plus, just in time for Spring Break, it’s now 33 percent thinner! (WSJ, Apple, Gizmodo, PC World) In a Supreme Court battle between funeral protesters and […]

Amid those emails from your TA and that club you went to once just for that cute girl, you may have noticed messages from mysterious aliases, lists-cc@columbia-listserv-cc.listserv.org or columbia@lists-columbia.listserv.org, inviting you to join an even more cryptic “Columbia Listserv.” While these emails may appear to be legitimate and the site claims to be “institution-sponsored,” CUIT gave […]

Bwog’s kind-of-new Wednesday feature, Where Art Thou?, is here to keep you posted on what’s going on in the A&E department in Morningside Heights and beyond (basically all the cool events your friends are in/on/at). If you would like your whatever-event-we-just-want-to-have-a-VIP-option posted on Bwog, now you can! E-mail us at events@bwog.com. Thursday CU Records Lounge Night […]

Barnard President Debora Spar held her latest fireside chat last night, and Zach Kagan was there to drink in the excitement. DSpar verily sparkled! Spar, although set apart from her audience in the middle of an arc of empty seats, conducted the chat more or less as a community conversation. The evening was focused on the […]
