Housing lottery numbers come out tonight and the Spec has the stats (just not the right graphs). Students for Choice’s Emergency Contraceptive Bridgade finds they’re pretty useless. Let’s hope Norman Washington doesn’t mind being labelled the victim of the infamous EC hate crime… cause he is now! Columbia baseball winning a bit.

Overheard at the Hungarian Pastry Shop, a conversation between two guys in their late 20s. Guy 1: So do you like the baby? Guy 2: Of course, it’s a baby. Guy 1: Is there any chance that the baby’s yours? Guy 2: No, she was four months pregnant when I started dating her. But I […]

Bwog poked its head into the weekly Columbia College Student Council meeting this evening, and was shocked to find every seat filled in the normally empty audience section. Could the student body suddenly be taking an interest in the doings of their elected representatives? Alas, no. This was the Candidate Information Meeting, where CCSC officers […]

NY Daily News is calling Friday night’s West End extravaganza a frat brawl. And reports that the Aerosoles window got smashed with a bottle of Hennessy. Hennessy, people, Hennessy. That means that just hours prior to that you could have actually ordered cognac at the West End.

Overheard: “Your vagina is, like, aerodynamic.”

Last semester, B&W staffer Bari Weiss founded The Current, “A Journal of Contemporary Politics, Culture, and Jewish Affairs.” This past weekend, they released their spring edition with an open tab at Toast. Of course, Bwog only learned of the free drinks and food exactly one minute after said tab was closed. Nevertheless, The Current is […]

Can you lead a perfectly successful and happy life even if you’ve never read about Leopold Bloom masturbating on a Dublin beach? Everyone has that book (or those books) that they probably should have read by now, but have not. Professors, we hypothesized, are no different. So we asked them to name the book they […]

The Bwog has been spending the weekend trying to figure out what happened at the ‘Stend Friday. A handful of people saw the fights outside but no one seems to know what went on inside. So far all we’ve got is this: I was at the ‘stend from 1130-1215 last night. The doors to the […]

Overheard in the Carman elevator: “You can’t fight a tiger and win.”

There are 21 boxes of sweaters, coats, pants, jackets, and fuzzy hats in the Student Government Office, with much Gap and J.Crew. We’re not sure how long the’ve been there (presumably less than the five months since the 5.6 magnitude earthquake). But we do know that, if they ever reach Pakistan, the average earthquake victims […]

Free pizza on Low Plaza at 9 tonight. Go. Now.

5:10 pm Columbia students, repeat after me: Neither the West End nor Broadway between 113th and 114th are my personal playplaces. I will refrain from fighting in the streets and from setting off fire alarms. Or, at the very least least, I’ll try not to do both in the same day.

Last night apparently wasn’t the night to go to the West End. This morning the Spec reported on 3 am street fights which occured when about 200 people came spilling out of the ‘Stend. Of course, the Bwog has known about this since last night when it woke up to, say, COPS FIRING SHOTS INTO […]

In which film savant Iggy Cortez gives you something to watch if even a trip on the 1, 2, or 3 seems too much. A friend of mine recently said he couldn’t think of any great contemporary directors, and to contemporary cinema’s defense the first (out of many) names that came to mind was that […]

In which staffer Mark Krotov gives movie suggestions for those who fear to venture off the 1, 2, and 3 lines. AMC Loews 84th Street 6 84th and Broadway Larry the Cable Guy: Health Inspector Feel very proud to live in a blue state. Mr. Guy’s recurring statement, “Now that’s funny, I don’t care who […]
