Enjoy leaves now! Go do it! Now!

Certain members of our community have been letting off end-of-semester angst by writing angry comments on dining hall bulletin boards.

The November issue of The Blue and White will be arriving on campus momentarily.  Meanwhile, enjoy selections from the current edition on Bwog. At first it seemed innocuous enough: a couscous-like, gluten-free, and protein-rich alternative to rice. What damage could it possibly cause? Formerly confined to the lower shelves of Whole Foods and other “informed” […]

Lost Tues 23/11/10 between 1020, O’Connell’s and Sip (oh dear). It’s a tiny gold bracelet with my name (Natalie) engraved. It’s of no monetary value but is of huge sentimental importance as I’ve had it since I was born (!). If you find it, please contact njr2115@columbia.edu

This just in! SGA has voted to recognize sororities at Barnard by a vote of 14-5. Zoe Camp reports.

The newest issue of The Blue and White will soon arrive.  Until then, enjoy the magazine in its entirety as we preview it on Bwog. Morningside old timers remember “the castle” at 106th and Central Park West as it once was. Not an inch of the restored structure betrays its past today, but for 40 […]

Scandalous! The NY Post reports the Manhattan DA nabbed George Castro for allegedly stealing millions from Columbia. Bwog is in touch with University officials now, and we’ll keep you updated when we hear back. Update: Double scandalous, the Post was wrong.

Jay-Z warned you: “Can’t none of ya’ll mirror me back!” Spotted on 116th and Broadway

Bwog has hopped, poked, and swiftly skimmed, but now we’re inviting other writers into the Bwog Bubble. We think there’s lots of fantastic campus journalism out there that sometimes slips under the radar.
