Jeff Sachs, with you and me together, why, we could end world poverty by Christmas! More party photos after the jump.
Overheard in the SGO: Columbia College Student: I don’t like how you guys don’t have public elections. Anonymous Engineering Student Council Member: Yeah, whatever, we’re fascists. And proud of it. SEAS fascists to world: F u.

Movie filming at Columbia! No, the Olsen twins aren’t making their glorious return—yet—but Columbia may catch glimpses this Wednesday of Robin Williams, that Felicity girl, hottie Jonathan Rhys Meyers, and that cute kid from Charlie and the Chocolate Factory filming August Rush. The movie poses that most important of questions: if you were separated from […]
Rumor has it that two CC sophomores, both gay, are getting married — or maybe, got married this past week (not quite sure which). The reason? Columbia offers better financial aid and free summer housing to married students. Looks like Facebook needs a new relationship category: marriage of convenience. — Donna Loffredo
Bwog is proud to bring the first installment of “Lecture Hopping,” in which correspondents go to speeches, lectures, and public displays of erudition so you don’t have to. Monday February 13 Religion as a Natural Phenomenon: Daniel C Dennett in conversation with Robert Thurman Miller Theatre With his luxuriant white beard and paternal stature—minus the […]

Word from a Varsity Show source is that set-up for tonight’s West End preview displaced a group of mourners fresh off a memorial service. The dearly departed was none other than Grandpa Munster himself. Grandpa reportedly lied his whole life about earning a Columbia Ph.D. so we’ll assume he wouldn’t mind sacrificing a little dignity […]
The Varsity Show’s strange little website has just put up an equally strange little trailer. Apparently, this year’s Varsity Show features nothing more than block letters in front of a black background and what sounds like the theme from Backdraft. Intriguing, at least in a Phillip Glass minimalist sense, but the Bwog hopes the producers […]
According to an article in New York magazine, the Bwog won’t have to worry about money after graduation, because we’ll be making bank with this newfangled web log, so long as we completely uppend the Blog power structure, that is. We’ll take all y’all on, blogitches!
A rumor swept across campus this afternoon that Tom Selleck, star of Magnum P.I. and champion of mustachioed men everywhere, was at The West End, enjoying a burger and fries. After much investigation, Bwog regrets to inform you that it was only a Tom Selleck look-alike. Sigh.
True love may be foreign to the Blue and White, but the quest for it is not, as evidenced by our staffers’ personal ads in the February edition. Well, our quest may soon come to an end. One eligible bachelor on staff was such a hot item that he demanded two personals: Long snaky tongue, […]
For all you Bwogomaniacs out there, a recap of our launch party, by the numbers, at least as Bwog remembers them: ONE life-size cut-out of Jeffrey Sachs, Columbia’s sexiest sustainable developer. TWO strains of mono. THREE ungraceful moments of, how shall we say, upchuck? SEVERAL socially awkward moments with that guy from Gawker. HUNDREDS of […]
People coming out of Mona, 11:20 PM: Guy: Was that a life size cutout of Jeffrey Sachs? Girl: Yeah, I think so. Guy: What the fuck?! – Lydia DePillis
While prettying herself up for her launch party this evening (AT MONA on Amsterdam b/t 108 & 109), the Bwog has been pondering her place in history, especially as it related to the rise and fall of Fascism, which, it turns out, Columbia is not so far removed from.
