One professor is miraculously able to be an academic, administrator and mother – without a Time Turner. Another professor, after being educated around the world, pushes the limits of the normative, breaks ground on the topic of globalization, and successfully uses buzzwords while talking to the press. Men’s soccer pushes the limits of the acceptable win […]

The CPU and College Dems are co-sponsoring an event in which Senator Amy Klobuchar (D-MN) will be speaking this Sunday at 4 PM in Lerner Cinema. She’s going to talk about her legislative goals and the like, plus there will be a Q&A to follow. 

An eerie calm descended on the usually bustling Low Plaza early this afternoon when a group of Bhutanese monks performed a demon subjugation dance ritual known as Tum Ngan.  Intended to eliminate evil spirits in the surrounding area, the ritual comforted many still shaken by the presence of a Jumbo McCain while frustrating Ghostbusters enthusiasts […]

Just in case you haven’t been keeping up with your favorite tech blogs as of late or compulsively checking your Twitter on your new Blackberry or whatever, Bwog’s resident techies are here to fill you in on some exciting news in the tech world courtesy of some Columbia entrepreneurs.  Buzzable.com, the LaunchboxDigital brainchild of Columbia […]

Welcome back to Ask Bwog, a feature in which we answer burning questions about such disparate topics as Juicy Campus (ha, remember that?), PBK, and how to become gainfully employed by celebrities. We return this week with an important question about the Lerner ramps and Your Safety. One CC senior, who is not fond of […]

In front of the Lerner piano lounge is a well-stocked churro bar (with guacamole, sour cream, salsa, chips and the like), courtesy of Live at Lerner. It is a delight.  There’s also a cooler with complimentary Arnold Palmer — that’s half lemonade, half iced tea.

It’s not often Bwog takes pity on the young masters of the universe of the Columbia Business School. They’re territorial with small spaces, and not terribly warm to the idea of mere undergraduates purchasing food in Uris. But still, this week is not a good week for the b-schooler. Here, observe as they stand in […]

Hillary Clinton at Barnard, Spars for pay raises. In debut, Sparing nothing for Clinton’s Barnard speech. The Mothers of Harlem trusted Mr. Rangel. That girl’s shoes are totally hideous. Halloween, Ricky’s (neé Kim’s) are a girl’s new best friend.

Oh look, the Spectator has launched its latest venture into the blogosphere. This one’s called Spectacle, and it’s an arts and entertainment blog. Ahoy, Spectacle! (Fun fact: years ago, Spec‘s entire A&E section used to be called “Spectacle.”) So far there’s been disparate chatter about movies, video games, and food, among other things. Fare thee […]

Tonight marks the second Blue and White and Bwog joint meeting of the year. Interested parties new and old are encouraged to attend — especially those with a knack for writing, artistry, business-savvy, editing, and technological know-how. We’ll be assigning stories and accepting pitches. 9:30 PM, in the basement of St. Paul’s Chapel. We look […]

Hey, welcome to this liveblog of Hillary Clinton speaking about pay equality at Barnard. Bwog’s thankful this thing is starting late, because we were a little late getting to the James Room in Barnard Hall, where about 60 students are now watching a livefeed of the podium at which Clinton will speak on a large […]

Welcome to the first in a series of analyses designed to determine the best in a category of chosen food product! In the coming weeks, we’ll be taking a critical eye toward such controversial delicacies as ice cream, espresso, bagels and margaritas. But today, we’re going to talk a little bit about miso soup, and […]

Bwog’s a little late with this item, but we didn’t want any more time to go by without congratulating the Columbia men’s soccer team on their 3-1 victory yesterday over UC Santa Barbara, who were ranked 6th in the country (and who won the national title two seasons ago). Despite being outshot 22-7, the Lions […]

First-year correspondent Jason Kruta went to the Lower East Side yesterday to check out the 8th Annual International Pickle Day.  The New York Food Museum sponsored the Eight Annual NYC International Pickle Day bonanza in the Lower East Side. Pickles of every shape, size and type abounded, from your run of the mill Kosher Dill […]

Compared to last year’s all-star lineup (Ian Buruma vs. Martin Amis! A master class with Robert Hass!) this year’s New Yorker Festival is oddly underwhelming. In any event, there are some things that should prove interesting and worthwhile. Here’s what we think they are, not including things that are sold out: Friday, October 3: Race […]
