Wait, fall break is officially titled “Election Day Holiday?” Wtf? Whatever. You may have read our recent predictions about students’ 2016 presidential picks. This post is not about voting (which we assume all of you do). Bwogger and semi-pro mathematician Sarah Dahl calculates about what percentage of time you’ll be politically campaigning this break. B-of-the-E […]

Dear Bwog, I’ve been having some problems with my roommate since we moved in before NSOP. He always leaves his stuff around, meaning I have to walk around his dirty clothes, class books, and used plates/utensils if I want to get to my clean half of the room. He also keeps the room really warm, […]

Eschewing the celebration of Halloween. It might be an unpopular opinion, but it’s an important one (arguably, even, the moral one). Bwog staffer Phoebe Newton bravely faces capitalism and the masses to stand up for what she believes in–what is truly right–the eradication of Halloween. Of course I hate Halloween. I can understand the overwhelming […]

What happens when GSCC meets in Roone Auditorium, instead of the Satow Room? A whole lotta updates. Bwog’s got you covered on the run-down, thanks to staffer Joe Milholland’s council reportage. The General Studies Student Council’s abbreviated meeting last night took place in the Roone Auditorium (the Satow Room, where they usually hold meetings, was […]

Cosmetics Company Urban Decay just released a new Naked palette: Naked Vault Volume II. It costs $165 (better than last year’s Vault I price: $265), but it’s still a lot to pay, unless you already(!) have your summer finance internship lined up. (Bustle) Author, Republican, and former neurosurgeon Ben Carson topped Donald Trump in a […]

It’s the thick of midterms. Fall break is merely days away, but it feels like we will never escape the bleak days of studying in Butler and crying into our Blue Java coffee cups. Alas, we will make it through even the darkest of nights somehow. To ease the pain, we bring you some of the […]

This morning, an anonymous tipster sent us a message about CCSC’s new website, though to call it a website may be a bit of a stretch. The page is full of cracked-out emoticons, grimace-y pictures of council members, and the default Lorem ipsum that no one’s bothered to change as of yet.   Is this page […]

Can you handle today’s scary story, written by Daily Editor Betsy? Have a nightlight and a happy puppy video at the ready, ’cause you may not be able to sleep after this one. The sky is dark when you step out of Butler late one night. Buildings are dark, trees are dark – as though […]

It’s that time again… Bwogger Caroline brings you this week’s SGA report, full of sisterly love. This week, Angela Beam (the SGA representative for college relations) gave a rundown on the upcoming Seven Sisters Conference. This year, the conference will be held in our ‘hood from November 6th-8th. The Seven Sisters Conference is a yearly event where […]

This edition of Night in the Life comes in the form of imagined conversations between Benjamin Makansi and Vivek Ramakrishnan–a.k.a. Ben and Viv, your notoriously fearless leaders of CCSC. 10:59 pm Ben: Oh crap! We forgot to send an email about CCSC! Viv: Are you sure we did anything this week? B: I don’t know! […]

Midterms are still in full swing, and as work piles up, any unexpected complication can feel overwhelming. Whether that means suddenly catching the flu or going through a breakup, this playlist is here to commiserate with you (and if you’re simply just stressed out by midterms, that’s fine too!!). Flesh without Blood by Grimes – The […]

A World Health Organization study linking processed meats and colorectal cancer has been backed by many experts in the field, adding snacks like sausage to the seemingly ever-increasing list of Things That Can Give You Cancer. Don’t fret too much though–the risk is minimal in comparison to, say, smoking a pack of Marlboros. (Mercury News) And […]

Lately, it’s seemed like everything has been topsy-turvy. Babies are just hanging out in pumpkins, parents are eating at Hewitt, and random women are getting pepper-sprayed on the subway (although that might just be an #onlyinNewYork kind of thing). We know it’s been weird, but allay your fears with some field notes. As always, send […]

You can probably tell Bwog is a big fan of The Weeknd given how frequently he ends up on our playlists. Well, imagine our surprise when we spotted the new King of Pop on campus this afternoon! It’s unclear whether Abel is out on College Walk doin’ promo for his new tour, or just looking […]

Ferris Booth is not usually a place of productivity. A crowded feeding trough for busy students, it becomes even more of a pressure-cooker area during midterms. Everyone’s in a rush to get into the pasta line, then everyone’s hurrying to grab the silverware before it runs out, and then comes the mad dash for a […]
