Yesterday in Alaska, north Texas man was mauled by a bear while hunting moose – which is, apparently, still something people feel the need to do. The man, sustained several lacerations, but is expected to make a full recovery. If he’d been hunting moose anywhere near Barnard, our local bears likely would not have been nearly […]

In quaint Hewitt fashion, a temporary beeping noise (barely) interrupts diners just about every hour. The reliable noise causes no one to stir, and people continue to munch, socialize, or watch Netflix on a side table. But what is the source? Aliens? An undercover Soviet sleeper cell? PrezBo’s private subway stop? Daily Editor Betsy Ladyzhets, unlike […]

You’ve stared longingly into the seductive eyes adorning their CV, wondering if one day, just maybe, you could wake up next to them and discuss sustainable development over chocolate fondue. Maybe you’re just looking for a fling and bonus points on the midterm. Maybe you want something built to last, with someone who can rapidly […]

Ever wonder what dorm guards do in their spare time? Ever walk into Carman and hear some chill beats and velveteen vocals in the background? Bwog had Daily Editor Finn Klauber capture the romantic essence contained in the mixtape, The Master of Love, of Carman security guard Michael Layne. It’s easy to find yourself tapping […]

Pope Francis landed yesterday in Washington, greeted by the Obamas, Catholic school children, and friendly chanting. Francis is the fourth Pope to visit the United States, nearly 50 years after Paul VI first visited. Just keep an eye out on Thursday (and send any pics you take to Bwog) when he’ll be in New York. […]

Bwog’s veteran Barnard Bearoness, Maddie Stearn, is back to give you the SGA news you’ve been craving these past few months.

Ever had the urge to mercilessly roast the Columbia community? Have big dreams of one day achieving a level of self-deprecating humor comparable to ours at Bwog? Did you read Aziz Ansari’s new book and think “psh. I can write better jokes than this clown” (keep dreaming, kiddo)? Swing by the 122nd Annual Varsity Show […]

What’s worth more than a drug that could help thousands of people survive a life-threatening parasitic infection? Money ($$$), at least according to sketchy former hedge fund manager Martin Shkreli.  (New York Times) “What A Time To Be Alive” indeed… Future and Drake just dropped a mixtape and it is fire. One appreciative fan recommends listening […]

Columbia students are great at finding new and creative ways to hurt themselves, physically and emotionally. Sometimes there’s a reward, but usually the result is deep and existential dread/the shattering of a once dearly-held worldview, just like an angry 1020 line-dweller shattered a V&T window during the wait to get in. To contribute, share details […]
