At 3:00 this afternoon, the Undergraduate Admissions and Financial Aid offices crowded onto College Walk to send the first batch of admission letters for the Class of 2019. Despite the cold weather, the officers somehow managed to remain cheerful—along with their sizable array of camerapeople toting DSLRs, point-and-shoots, phones, and iPads. (Bwog estimates there was […]

President Spar sent an email to Barnard students this afternoon explaining the Board of Trustees approach to adding a transgender policy to Barnard’s admissions for the future. A handful of all-women’s colleges have already implemented transgender policies in their own admissions. On campus, Barnard students have called for a change to address the non-existent admissions policy for […]

Like us, you probably harbor a burning hatred for the Columbia Business School. Perhaps it’s because they dare claim a building on campus so we have to look  at them as they go to class. Perhaps it’s because of that ridiculous sculpture out front, a testament to their lack of culture and also to how they […]

Tonight, we celebrate our school as best we know how with communal food before finals and offense given to everyone and everything! At precisely the stroke of midnight, in Butler 209, the Columbia University Marching Band will be hosting “the 60th consecutive 69th semi-annual Orgo Night.” This alleged act of public service (as well as […]

Take a moment, this finals season, and remember this school’s long and noble past. Remember the simpler times, the more idyllic times, the times when prostitutes gathered across the street and young men stole wine from our president. Debauched Bwogger Henry Litwhiler brings you a moment from our glorious, degenerate history.  “King’s College” summons up certain idyllic images […]

You don’t have time to read a full Bwoglines; Bwog doesn’t have time to write a full Bwoglines. Slack this morning with a Bwog in Bed secure in the knowledge that there is no judgment here, only commiseration.  Bwogline: Last night, Columbia men’s basketball took on Kentucky, number one in the country. And it forced Kentucky to […]

Dear Bwog, One of my friends is having a hard time finding mental health help. She has panic attacks and really severe depression. She was really triggered by the recent death, and went to counseling services in search of immediate counseling and medication to control her panic attacks. She asked Furman for immediate counseling and […]

Bwog likes to inform our readers of every event around campus, from social justice jamborees to science seminars. We sent our own little Martian Mason Amelotte to space Low Library on Tuesday to learn more about Mercury. Why do we explore our solar system? It’s a question people don’t often think about. Most would say […]

Tired of Butler? Sick of burning your tongue on another scalding Starbucks latte? Want to pretend you’re spending your winter break in Europe?

Around 3:30 AM last night, residents of 114th St. between Broadway and Amsterdam were awoken from their peaceful slumber by the most courteous neighbors of all time: Beta House. In keeping with their recent tradition, most of their blaring music consisted of tunes from Disney that may be enjoyable in small doses, but not at […]

In attempt to instill some culture in our staff, we sent our Sunday daily to review CUBE’s performance of The Nutcracker Suite. Mason Amelotte brings you his thoughts below. For the second time in less than a month, I was forced had the opportunity to spend my Saturday night alone in some foreign theater surrounded […]

Now that it’s reading week, we’re transitioning from Bwoglines to Bwog In Bed. Are you really spending these next couple of days studying, or are you just listening to Drake and drinking wine in your room? Let us know in the comments! Bwogline: You’ve all probably read Le Petit Prince, whether in English as a child or […]

What’s going on at two in the morning after the first day of reading week? The Starbucks on 110th Street is closed; the Starbucks on 113th is open. There are many more drunk students making their way home, Public Safety vans prowling. Undergraduate ladies in very high heels and bare legs, and guys in sweatpants with […]

Yesterday was the last day of classes, but more importantly, it was the night of XMAS!, Columbia’s annual winter musical comedy. What better way to celebrate finishing the semester on a good note than to take in your peers’ creative talent and get a good laugh. Our Arts Editor rejoiced in the revelry and wants […]
