Fall 2015 marked the fourth semester in a row in which a new board took the helm of Bwog: in August we lost former Editor in Chief Taylor Grasdalen to Duluth, Minnesota. Britt Fossum, CC ’16, took Grasdalen’s place as EIC. Joseph Powers, CC ’16, took Fossum’s place on the board as Internal Editor, with Courtney Couillard, BC […]

Take a break from studying (or not studying) an mosey on down to Broadway Presbyterian Church for some pancakes and midnight solidarity! From 11 pm to 1 am tonight, our friends at everyone’s favorite progressive church in MoHi will be servin’ up fuel for your late-night/early morning trips to Riverside Park (we all know what you’re […]

We weren’t sure what this “reading week” stuff was all about, so we sent staff writer Phoebe to find out. Turns out, we’re actually expected to study this week! Well, that wasn’t going to happen, so instead Phoebe compiled a list of 10 alternatives to this “studying” nonsense to get you through the next seven or […]

You know a Facebook event is going to be good when the host puts up a disclaimer: “this is just a joke i am just a bored lady making a joke pls dont arrest me (sic).” Friends and friends of friends and maybe even that weird kid with the wraparound sunglasses in your Orgo class have all […]

The second (and more controversial) round of Orgo Night posters have hit Butler bulletin boards (you can look at the first round of posters here). As one would expect, the posters contain Donald Trump jokes (Is he still funny? The world seems undecided), a play on Hotline Bling’s album art, and yet another reference to […]

Last was a night completely dedicated to informing the student body about all the health services available at Barnard. The guests were MJ Murphy from Primary Health Care, Mary Commerford from Furman, Jessica Cannon from Well Woman, and Carolyn Corbran from the office of Disability Services (ODS). As a frequent user of the services, I can personally say […]

Surprise! Jesus may not have looked like a skinny white dude with perfect hair! He might have looked like… well, like you’d expect an ancient Semite to look. We still think you look fly, Jesus. (Epoch Times) Though Jesus might not have looked much like his artistic image, this girl sure as hell looks like […]

Remember those fun emails we used to get from Ben & Viv, sometimes at 3 am? Or remember that time they tried to make a website? We miss the good ol’ days. But hark! CCSC has graced us with another Ben & Viv Classic, and we’re just tickled pink. Perhaps it was an effort to […]

As one Bwogger put it, it’s been a week of degeneracy. We’ve succeeded in setting our sights low, lying to ourselves, and mentally preparing for a week of agony that should be followed, theoretically, by a month of bliss. As you read through these field notes, (a) feel grateful you’re not us, and (b) consider sending […]

“XMAS!10: O Christmas, Where Art Thou?” is this year’s original, student-written holiday musical. Last night, Bwog writer (and Christmas-finder) Betsy Ladyzhets had the honor of attending the dress rehearsal, and abused that honor by nearly falling out of her chair several times because she was laughing too hard. XMAS!10 is playing tonight, in the Roone […]

If you’re having real drama with your faux-family, has Bwog got some advice for you! Some of it is good, but most of it is (arguably) not—instead of studying for finals, try to distinguish which is which! Dear Bwog, My friend group is going through some weird tension right now, and it has to do with […]

CCSC got down to business at last night’s meeting, formulating what specific requests they would send to Deantini after the results of the recent survey were examined. Joe Milholland, from behind a cup of Starbucks coffee, reports on what CCSC eventually decided were the most pertinent issues. They’ll be easy to guess if you’ve read our […]

Celebrate the end of something special (the end of classes, Bwoglines for this semester, etc.) with some strange and slightly chilling headlines. A disconcertingly soulless Ted Cruz has been lambasted by both Donald Trump and Ben Carson in response to comments he made at a private event. Trump said, “I get along with everybody,” and […]

Bucket List represents the inordinate 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. There’s not a ton going on this week as finals are rapidly approaching, but take a break from studying with one of our recommended events. The full […]

Well, folks, this is it. The last meeting of the semester. Someone bring the Kleenex. But it’s not all bad news. This means Winter Break, and going home for the holidays, and time spent with friends and family! We’ll miss you all, but Bwog will still be here when you return. Be sure to come to Lerner […]
