Transformation to what, exactly? Only time will tell. But it’s most assuredly something brown, something square, and something inexplicably partial to Century Gothic.

Vice magazine? Please. Radar re-re-re-launched, remember? Bwog applauds the subtle Photoshopping I spy with my little eye… original observations! Can you find them? Can you?  Even though this sounds like it was written by someone who has never even been to Columbia, Bwog likes the phrase “a pair of Betas” The library looks an awful […]

Though today free food seems to be ubiquitous, such is not always the case. When this situation inevitably arises, one might want to resort to Christopher Morris-Lent’s final three commandments for finding and obtaining free food. 8. THOU SHALT STEAL SILVERWARE FROM JOHN JAY  Free food usually comes with the utensils required to eat it, […]

Located outside the piano lounge in Lerner, there are two delicious fruit plates and what appears to be a Caesar salad. People are tending to cautiously pick at the fruit, because it almost looks like it might be for something. But pick away, hungry masses, it’s free, free, free. 

Stop it.  Just. Stop it.  

From earlier this afternoon: Julia Hirschberg: “Linguistics example sentences are invariably about murder or sex.” It’s the first day of classes, and Bwog wants to know some of the ridiculous things professors have said to commence the school year. Email bwgossip@columbia.edu if you hear anything good.  

GS’s new (unnamed?) owl mascot is now hanging on the Lerner ramps. If he is, in fact, unnamed, Bwog likes Gulliver. Gulliver the lifelong-learning owl.  

There is a ZipCar for rent outside the 114th st. Starbucks. How fun! Big, green ZipCar flags that are flopping about Broadway proudly bear the ZipCar name.  Bwog asked if the ZipCar was available to drive right now, but the request was denied. 

Bwog’s guide to the best dollar-store toy shopping in Harlem: a detailed narrative. By Alex Weinberg, with help from Hillary Busis.  A walk through Harlem will most likely lead you by a few dollar stores. Go into them. You can stock up on red Solo cups, sure, but moreover, you can find the most flamboyantly […]

Complimentary coffee and tea by the Broadway entrance of Lerner.

Bwog was partly saddened and partly relieved to see that the founding editors of Ivygate are handing the reins over to younger blood–nobody should really be running a college gossip rag when they’re more than a year out of the game (and now they won’t have to face defeat again). Besides, they’re off doing much […]

Reminder: Lolcolumbia submissions are due by midnight on the 4th. And we’re for serious giving away $20. Bwog’s gotten numerous entries so far, and one Loldavidjudd seems to be the frontrunner. 

Bwog was passing by the Barnard gates when something caught our eye. A baby squirrel tumbled off of the top of the gate and onto the pavement. Two security guards rushed over and picked up the little guy. His nose was bleeding and he seemed to be in shock. Efforts were made to put him […]

Barnard and Sex and the City alum Cynthia Nixon at Le Monde for brunch this morning. In unrelated news, Le Monde sucks.
