A car flipped over between 111th and 112th on Broadway late this afternoon. The road was closed off as of 4 pm but has since reopened. There is no information concerning the specifics of the event, but we hope everyone involved is okay. Bwog wants to remind its readers to be extra cautious in these […]

All Barnard students received an email from Dean of the College Avis Hinkson reminding you to get your flu shot on Friday announcing Barnard’s new “Support Animal Policy” which itself announces that Barnard is “now committed to accommodating anyone with disabilities for whom these animals provide tremendous comfort and assistance.” The policy falls in line […]

Lost: Black puffy North Face jacket at Havana Central last night. Generous reward for its return. Contact: sr2955@columbia.edu.

Bucket List represents the unbelievable intellectual privilege we enjoy as Columbia students. We do our very best to bring to your attention important guest lecturers and special events on campus. As always, feel free to mention any events we may have missed in the comments section (and/or mock our typos) and we’ll add them. Our […]

Sometimes, being unproductive can actually help you be more productive. (NYT) Maybe all of these studies about our generation being the most stressed of all generations are actually adding to our stress. (Huffington Post) CBS sent a wardrobe advisory to Grammy attendees, strongly suggesting that there be no “bare fleshy under curves of the buttocks” […]

Tonight’s personals are those of two old-timers: for their second round, we re-introduce Eric Donahue and Byron Jones. Name, Year, School, Major: Eric “Sugartits” Donahue, CC’15, ‘Murican Studiez Preference: Man 2 Woman, Morning 2 Midnight Hometown: Grayslake, Illinois — a town so boring it has “gray” in its goddamn name Your dream date in seven words […]

Last night was Wien’s first ever party, in case you somehow missed all the frantic advertising. Bwog was regrettably not in attendance, but after some quick sleuthing through our Columbia Admirers Facebook feed we were able to come up with a good idea of what it must have been like. Below, a fictionalized take on […]

The most recent cataclysmic disaster to hit Morningside prompted the parents of Bwog to get out their phones and text – text like the wind! When compared to Sandy though, they don’t seem to be nearly as concerned. Apparently, Nemo is less of a blizzard and more of a flurry. Tell us about your crazy […]

Last night (and this morning), ambitious programmers participated in the Devfest Hackathon, a marathon of hacking which started at 6 pm on Friday and ended today at noon. Bwog sent Developer Devotee Maud Rozee to visit the scene. Blizzard Nemo was raging at 11:30 last night when I visited the Devfest Hackathon, making the trip […]

In case you missed it, campus was hit with Winter Storm Nemo yesterday! Don’t mind the scary headlines though! Here, at Columbia, your fellow students engaged in all sorts of fun wintry activities. Update: specksucks even joined in on the fun.

In the Brazilian town of Santo Antonio de Platina, they’re not so much worried about a snowstorm as they are a spider storm. A young man filmed what a local biologist calls “normal behavior” and uploaded it to Youtube. I’d much rather deal with Nemo! (Gawker)   In London, they are doing whatever it takes […]

For this snowy Friday evening, Bwog presents two One Direction lovers. Maybe there’s a correlation? As always, contact us if you want to pogo-stick or play a scavenger hunt game with one of these fine single folk — or if you want to submit your own personal — at personals@bwog.com. Name, Year, School, Major: Dylan […]

Tonight’s Valentine’s Day Mixer, hosted by CU Admirers, actually advertises itself as “Wien’s first party,” so that’s not us trying to be funny. We’re just reporting the facts, and the apparent free cupcakes, cookies, and other sweet pink-and-red festooned foods that will be available tonight—along with a shot at true love, if the impassioned event […]

In their long campaign for Faculty House Workers’ rights, Student Worker Solidarity staged a protest today. Undeterred by the snow, they stood their ground mid-Nemo and, with their bravery and shouting, gained the attention of Columbia’s campus. Say what you want about them or their cause, but that takes some serious cojones. Protest in the Snow […]
