South Lawn is standing-room-only.  

Everyone from firefighters to Yeshiva University to guys in kilts playing “God Bless America” on bagpipes are thronging outside the gates. The speakout has taken a break for the speech, which will start in about 15 minutes–first 10 minutes for PrezBo, then 10 minutes for SIPA Dean Coatsworth, then 30 minutes for Mahmoud. Classes are […]

Everyone has their cause today. This one seems hypocritical. Also spotted, man with orange sign wandering around South Lawn: “Two Robots in Every Garage.”  – SEV 

The Bwoggers trapped inside Roone managed to get these messages to the outside: According to an Office of Communications representative, the spots weren’t handed out on a first-come first-served basis. Columbia College was capped at 150, SIPA at 300, and 150 went to Barnard, SEAS, and all other grad schools combined. That’s ok though, because […]

Geraldo Rivera, his mustache, Chris Kulawik, and serious-guy-with-beard (who is apparently Kulawik’s shadow), all made an appearance on Fox News. – JNW

“Bush is worse!” So says World Can’t Wait (the ones who want to drive out the Bush Regime).  People are inside, and the rally is starting!    

 Chris Kulawik addresses reporters this morning outside the 116th St. gates. The way he’s holding his hands makes it look like he’s sitting atop a bicycle.*   *Unconfirmed at press time – JNW

Or don’t have CNN. Or weren’t up before the crack of dawn. Dean Coatsworth’s interview on CNN this morning:   – JNW 

Bwog happened on some of the people putting the aforementioned posters up and chatted them up. Tyson Brody, C’09, who’s been putting the “bringing sexy back” posters up since 3AM, said, “This is all just political theater, so why not make something fun out of it…It’s just become a charade.” Why is he really doing […]

Spectator is flickering in and out, but SIPA bloggers are still in the game, and now some J-school students have thrown up a cute little blog, featuring a slide show and nifty map of the goings-on. Meanwhile, Rudy’s warmongering at a rally called the National Rally To End The Threat Now. His statement after the […]

A group of older-looking students has been pasting banners with maps of Iran and various statistics (especially related to the Persian Jewish population) around College Walk. They also seem responsible for a large “No War On Iran” flag poster in front of the sundial.  

Not sure quite what’s up with this one. More after the jump.

Blue Java is giving out free coffee until 11, and free cookies after that!

Bwog staffer Alec Turnbull, like the rest of the media, got up way too early this morning. The vans pulled up early, far before sunrise. By the time I’d made it out to Broadway at 6am, all the morning news stations had staked out a corner spot and were broadcasting. Their antennae interfered with doorway […]

HOLY SHIT!!! AHMADINEJAD IS COMING!!!!!@#@#!@!@!!@!#!@!11 Dueling historical equivalencies!   Gilchrist asks an intelligent question, David Helfand not so much   So…who’s up for a 5-hour long protest?  These guys are up for a 5-hour long protest!  Wait a second…this story has nothing to do with Ahmadinejad. At all.  And from the outside: Speaking invitation deemed more […]
