Fox News paints a questionable picture of Obama’s influence on unemployment rates. (NYMag) These berries are literally shinier than any other living thing. And since we can’t eat them, we’ll have to settle for a photo. (NPR) Picture yourself smiling. Now picture yourself frowning. According to the creator of emoticons (yeah, that’s a thing), modern […]

But this time, we’re tied with UChicago, that other college with a core curriculum. Harvard and Princeton are tied for 1st, Yale takes 3rd, and 6th is split between MIT and Stanford. Penn has dropped to 8th; remember when we languished there while they took 4th? Barnard, meanwhile, is back to 28th in the Liberal […]

It’s the Veritas Forum‘s forum with Oxford professor John Lennox. He’s discussing why there’s suffering in the world.

Now that most of us have traded in cubicle-desks for the weirdly shaped ones in Schermerhorm, Bwog’s Token Preprofessional takes a retrospective look at his nine-to-five summer, and a prospective look at where we go from here…  You’re a rising senior back at Columbia for one final go-around with a flexible schedule, available co-eds, an […]

Greetings Columbians, We welcome you to join us on this lovely evening in the basement of St. Paul’s Chapel at 9pm for the first meeting of The Blue & White. A new semester means it’s time to once again turn our inquisitive eyes upon our fair University, and to record our findings in print so […]

Bwog’s Barnard Bureau Chief Renée Kraiem reports from last night’s SGA meeting. Last night, Rep Council met in a new (but temporary) location, the Sulzberger North Tower. The majestic North Tower wasn’t the only thing different about last night’s meeting; over half of the Reps are serving their rookie years, and some veterans have traded […]

Today is the eleventh anniversary of the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks in New York, Washington, and Pennsylvania. Similar to last year, we direct your attention to some reflections on 9/11. In 2005, NPR interviewed members of the Barnard Class of 2005, who were freshmen during the attacks. Last year, the Eye spoke to alums […]

The following breaking (ha!) news comes from a tipster who (inevitably) sent a longing glance in Milano’s direction on her way to class…

Update: A commenter says that FTFs are actually part of LionLink, not ARC. We’re not sure the distinction matters, but there you go. Bwog’s new ESC correspondent, Aria Sharma, files this report from a relatively quiet meeting last night. New E-forms: Siddhant Bhatt, VP of Finance, introduced ARC (Accounting and Reporting at Columbia), a financial […]

In Chicago, it’s usually the students who skip class, but now the teachers are on strike. (Chicago Tribune) Journals tend to publish well-written and well-thought out pieces, but the Morningside Review is planning to publish UWriting essays. (Spec) Employees (especially young ones) are generally warned not to be full of themselves, but a new Columbia […]

First Prize, a box set of Literature Humanities books from Book Culture, goes to Laura H.T.: At the consent workshop, coming up (no pun intended) with ways to proposition someone. One group has a Harry Potter fetish: “I’ll show you 9 3/4.” Second prize, a six-pack and a slice of Koronet pizza, goes to Tanay […]

If you love pizza/hate walking up the Hamilton stairs, it’s probably a sign that you’re destined to join Peer Health Exchange. Find out tonight at 9 pm (and again on Wednesday at 9 pm)—they’re holding an info session in Hamilton 301, and free pizza is on the agenda. Because what else would there be a picture […]

Maren Killackey braves political promises and an ice cream buffet to bring you the updates from the first CCSC meeting of the year. The Satow Room abnormally peopled with student leaders, overachieving freshmen, and ice cream-loving freeloaders, the air of last night’s inaugural Columbia College Student Council meeting was rife with anticipation and excitement, albeit […]
