Created last summer, @sadcolumbiaboys is probably the one of the most popular Columbia-related social media accounts to exist (RIP Ivy League Bitch). Inspired by @sadyaleboys, and now the inspiration for various other sad accounts, it has garnered 1726 followers as of today. Connoisseur of Columbia Sadness Rachel Deal talked to the creator(s?) of @sadcolumbiaboys over Instagram DM about […]

CDCJ’s been doing their thing the past few days—but where’s PrezBo? We bring you answers, in the form of a night in the life of our beloved university president.  8:52 pm It’s been nice working from home for the past few days! God knows I don’t spend as much time as I should with my family. […]

On Tuesday afternoon Bwog sent staff writer Nikki Shaner-Bradford to a talk and Q&A with entrepreneur Miki Agrawal, organized by Barnard’s Smart Women Lead and Pre-Health Organization, so that she could learn more Agrawal’s start-ups, scuffle with the MTA, and thoughts on how to do “cool shit.” Yesterday afternoon Miki Agrawal, CEO of Thinx and an […]

So you’re definitely getting Baked by Melissa, going to the Tank Top party (once the “Pot Party”), or getting seeds from the John Jay Lounge. It’s cute how CU students come together on 4/20 to produce the most insinuation-laden event names. That said, you can’t really compete with your professor’s itinerary on 4/20—they’re in academia! We […]

Perhaps disoriented by the room change, the GSSC meeting was surprisingly short. And you don’t have to miss a single second: wily correspondent Jennifer Nugent was on the scene and taking notes. Last night’s General Studies Student Council (GSSC) meeting was off to a raucous start with a room change to Pupin. Latecomers even fell […]

Peter Liang, the NYPD officer convicted of second-degree manslaughter for killing the unarmed Akai Gurley, will not face any jail time. Instead, he he will face five years of probation and 800 hours of community service—provoking outrage from some quarters. (ABC News) The NY primaries were yesterday, in case you didn’t notice the ecstatic Bernie volunteers […]

Tempted by the promises of good baklava, turkish coffee, and a possible connection to Lin-Manuel Miranda, Bwogger Romane Thomas headed over to Hamilton Hall for The Turkish Engima, an event put on by the Alexander Hamilton Society. Though she missed out on Lin-Manuel, she instead found an intelligent and striking lecture on the role of Turkey […]

For the first time in a while, SGA had lots of substantive and contentious debate. Well, maybe not SUPER contentious, but better than usual. SGA Correspondent Raji Ganapathy reports on the resolutions and suggestions made by SGA yesterday.  This week SGA clustered around a different square table than usual, on the first floor of Elliott Hall, […]

Barnard students just received an email announcing tuition and fees for next year, as well as changes to the dining plan. Though Barnard students lost JJ’s Place access last year, they will once again be able to swipe into the dining hall in the fall. The email announced other changes as well, such as dinner being […]

Each year, current students enjoy checking out the prospective students at Days at Campus and remembering the days of their youth. Times have indeed changed, yet some things, and some people, will always stay the same. Here are some archetypal prospective students for the enjoyment of prospective and current students alike. One ubiquitous stereotype is […]

Spring is in the air and, just as all the new prospies are visiting campus, going to bars, and somehow finding their way back through the dark night, ESC is slowly but surely working its way through the darkness of its new members’ bureaucratic ignorance. ESC Correspondent Finn Klauber reports on the many important updates […]

Did you hear that? There’s a whispering in the air. Is it an activist’s megaphone, the voice rebounding through Low Rotunda? No, that’s not it. Is it the distant chanting of hundreds of Bernie-bros on 109th, walking lockstep in matching Bernie 2016 shirts like Marinetti-esque robots? No, that can’t be it. Is it the Zionism conspiracist […]

Today is the day all those Bernie-bros and Hillenials who have been pestering you on College Walk were waiting for; the beginning of the New York presidential primaries! The nearest voting location, if you’re registered at Columbia, is at PS 165, 234 West 109th Street. Get out there and do your civic duty. (NBC) Can today mark […]

Trash: New York City is full of it, Columbia is full of it, and Bwog is also, probably, full of it. (At least, that seems to be the opinion of many of our commenters recently.) And now that the weather is nice enough to actually venture outside for more than the five minutes it takes […]

This week, CCSC tackled the issue that’s been literally sitting in the forefront of campus for the past couple of days: CDCJ’s protest. Bureau Chief Joe Milholland reports on the council’s resolution, as well as on the statements made by a representative of CDCJ at last night’s meeting. “I don’t care if this group is […]
