The Travel section in Today’s Times features a “local stop” in Morningside Heights purporting to give an itinerary that mirrors the weekend afternoons of real Columbia students. The only problem? When was the last time any student you know went to, for example, A Cafe or the Ding Dong Lounge? Another dubious sign: the article […]

Bwog tipsters noted the juxtaposition of Marine recruiters and medical marijuana advocates on the ramps yesterday:

Bwog’s Color Wheel Checker Rebecca Newman reports from Glass House Rocks, Columbia’s closest approximation of a middle school dance. Lerner Hall was turned into a veritable jukebox last night in tune with this year’s theme for the annual Glass House Rocks party, Glass House Rocks and Rolls.  If you didn’t already know the theme, the […]

If you wandered past Barnard’s new Events Oval last night, the first thing you might have noticed at the Meal Plan Forum, even before the presence of the forty or so mostly angry attendees, would have been the two tables of catered food. Ironic, yes, but it did placate the hordes of meal plan-protesters, at […]

On Monday evening, Bwog’s Claire Sabel joined Columbia International Relations Council and Association (CIRCA) to hear journalist, author, photographer and most recent addition to J-School faculty Professor Howard French talk about his life and work. French has had a fascinating career in journalism, spent predominantly working for the perennial Columbia favorite, the New York Times. […]

It’s finally time to buy an apartment in Manhattan! (NY Mag) MTV is letting people like you choose where to send season 2 of Jersey Shore. Giants Stadium is being demolished. (Daily News) Strippers (including an NYU student) pick the Saints to win the Super Bowl. (Post)

The NYPD tells us that at some point after 8 AM tomorrow, our fair city will be visited by something called an EA6B Prowler.  The reason for flyby is not really clear, so even though you New Yorkers are notoriously jumpy, it seems safe to assume we are not under attack. So if you see […]

It’s like Physics for Poets! Bwog’s 168th Street Correspondent Megan McGregor reports from an art gallery at the Medical School. Walking into Columbia’s Russ Berrie Medical Science Pavilion lobby expecting an art exhibition entices bizarre mental images of what one might find.  However, expect to be pleasantly surprised.  Columbia University’s Office of Government and Community […]

Bwog’s Dane Cook ventured into Riverside Theater to attend last night’s performance of Black Snow. The intrigue of Black Snow took hold even before the play began. As the audience filed past to take their seats, a young woman cautioned everyone entering the theater, “Don’t forget your package. It’s here waiting for you.” Standing beside […]

Hawkmadinejad was spotted yet again last night, but this time not alone! Ah, love is in the air… Photos by Emilie Berner

The Strong Beautiful Barnard Woman is questioned and found wanting. Real college life ≠ TV “college life”. Shocker. Filth in the kitchen is bad. Bureaucracy is worse. No, we do not need a travel guide to find our way out of Morningside.

Columbia beats Yale and NYU, placing sixth on the list of top fundraising American universities for 2009. (CAE) Don’t like the fowl new Barnard meal plan? Now’s your chance to grouse! Attend the open discussion today at 5pm hosted by Dean Denburg in the Vag’s 2nd flood dining space on the first floor Diana Event […]
