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 […]

This afternoon, the Columbia Journalism School announced the 2016 winners of the Pulitzer Prize. As is the tradition (and, perhaps, to make directions easier for the older writers attending the event), the prizes were awarded in Pulitzer Hall. You can watch the live announcement on Pulitzer’s website. Notable winners included Lin-Manuel Miranda for Hamilton, Associated Press […]

That’s right, today’s the day: registration for the fall 2016 semester officially starts now. Ready the list you’ve been preparing since February, check CULPA to see if any new reviews popped up, and open the page you bookmarked during NSOP – or, if you’re like us, scroll through a department at random looking for professors […]

Last night, the Columbia Elections Board ruled to disqualify General Studies Student Council University Senator candidate Jeffrey, GS ’18 from the race, effective immediately. This decision was a result of remarks made by Jeffrey at a debate yesterday afternoon. In Jeffrey’s introductory statement, he mentioned another candidate, Ramond Curtis: “I’m someone that’s really committed to making […]

After 17 years of sleep, hordes of cicadas will be emerging from the ground all over the Northeast. If you hail from Maryland, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, or Virginia, get ready for a noisy summer. (CNN) Rihanna and Leonardo diCaprio were photographed together at an after-party of the 2016 Coachella Music Festival on Saturday night. […]

In light of the recently removed post regarding alcohol in Kappa Alpha Theta’s brownstone, Bwog’s Editor in Chief, Mason Amelotte, has resigned from all involvement with Bwog, effective immediately. The post was created in poor taste, without considering the full implications it may have for the woman in the photograph. As an organization that strives […]

It’s no secret that Bwog hearts BarnLib, and we’re super excited about their event in LeFrak tomorrow starting at 6 PM. (aka 24 hours from now!) The BarnLib babes will be whipping up some Millie the Bear-shaped cookies for students to decorate and munch on to brighten up their Monday night. The event will have cookies catering to […]

Bucket List represents the intellectual privilege we enjoy as Columbia students. We do our very best to bring to your attention important guest lecturers and special events on campus. Our recommendations for this week are below, and the full list is after the jump. If you notice any events that have been left off the […]
