Today is a Snow Day! (except for the Business School)! Columbia was apparently mentioned as superior to Kenyon College off-camera on the Daily Show. The MTA is “trying very much” not to increase fares this year. (Gothamist) Hey, you know what’s cool? Meatpacking District nightclubs. (Spec) The Spectator wants to know where it’s going to […]

Bwog received this text message from a visiting friend: “Whats the part of your library where people have sex?”

There’s nothing like naïve young hopefuls to feed our raging narcissism. We know how to procrastinate, thank you very much. Speak for yourself while you revel in your awkward ways. How to lie, cheat and steal your way through midterms.

While you may have to invest in a pair of swimmies and a ski mask to get to the subway station, the lovelies at Inside New York have found some options for the more adventurous members of the Columbia community.

Don’t know how to start your weekend? Columbia RAs and Babeland will be holding a sex toys workshop this evening in the lobby of Harmony Hall from 7:00pm to 8:30pm, consisting of a one hour lecture and a 30 minute “shopping experience.” Read the full flyer after the jump!

Nothing says “Community Service” like Dunkin Donuts, hot chocolate, and Rock Band, right? CCO’s coming up (March 27th, just on the other side of spring break), so they’re taking over the Lerner Piano lounge from 8:00-10:00pm tonight for their “Rock Out, Chow Down” free food extravaganza.  There will be a raffle, too–all the details are […]
