Sun, 2/16: Opening Ceremony Dinner Roone, 7:00 – 9:00 pm Open to: entire Columbia community Sun, 2/16: Launch Week Light Display College Walk, […]

Early criticism of Obamacare’s consequences on working families might be premature; such consequences couldn’t possibly be realized until it all actually goes into effect. Would it really be a “job killer”? (The Washington Post) (NY Daily News) CVS won’t be selling cigarettes anymore as they further expand their in-store clinics. They don’t play around. (Los Angeles Times) […]

Looking for someone to woo you on the back of a motorcycle? Someone to share a Milano sandwich with you, lady-and-the-tramp-style? Someone who will warm you up after you get sprayed with icy sludge while trying to cross the street (lookin’ at you 115th street intersection)? Well look no further than Bwog to find true […]

There’s been a lot of talk lately about fostering community on campus.  Here at Bwog, we couldn’t care less have other priorities, namely, avoiding the cringe-worthy awkwardness that comes with making eye contact with people you just really don’t want to say hi to. So for everyone who just can’t bear another uncomfortable encounter on […]

Would you rather have a livefeed of people in Butler, Valentine’s Day grams, or class pajamas? We sent the Kindly Kilted Keenan Albee to listen to such important deliberations at ESC’s weekly meeting. Prep for some big upcoming events loomed over this week’s ESC meeting up in the Lerner Lair of Doom (more formally known […]

Members of the Columbia Prison Divest campaign sat down with Bwog to talk about the letter they’d sent around and had publicly submitted to PrezBo.  The campaign has only just started, but it seems the group is focused on success—they want Columbia to get rid of its investments in private prisons and, perhaps more importantly, […]

Somewhere between Homer and Thucydides, we started evaluating Lit Hum characters based not off the timeless themes of eternal glory and homecoming, but off how shitty they are as people and how good they’d be in bed. Actually, tbh that’s how we always evaluated the great works; that’s why our papers were always graded so […]

It’s the beginning of the semester so you’re still telling yourself you’ll actually “broaden your mind” and “take advantage of the city” and everything else your mom told you to do when she first saw the tuition bill. Sounds great except that it’s so damn cold and you’re so damn lazy. Solution? Arts editor Madysen […]

Everyone/many people have heard about weird porn in Butler. Our legacy, ladies and gentlemen. (NY Daily News, NY Observer, HuffPo, NY Mag) School of Public Health recently conducted a study suggesting that happier people may be likelier to have safer sex. Granted, the experiment was conducted purely on sexually active, HIV-positive men so it may […]

In which we present another preview from the upcoming edition of The Blue and White, coming to campus soon. Jen Sluka, CC ’17, brings us this report on Columbia’s investment into fossil fuels and the student groups working to divest. For other news on divestment, see here. Since Barnard Columbia Divest for Climate Justice (BCD) was […]

Were we ever this embarrassing? Yeah, okay, maybe. Still, it’s our turn to laugh now. Here are the worst of the Class of 2018 early decision Facebook intro posts. Read ’em and weep, folks. Prefrosh: We don’t really hate you. And actually, the class before you accidentally uploaded a ton of their admissions essays to […]

Columbia is now accepting applications for students to form a new Special Interest Community house.  So if you’re feeling premature in your panic about housing and have a Columbia-recognized student group you think would be perfect to fill the 1st floor of River (1 double and 7 singles),  you should check out the online application. […]

It’s your 8:40 a.m. English seminar. Within the first three minutes it’s become abundantly clear that you are far from the only person to have maybe lightly skimmed the reading, and you just cannot bring yourself to deal with/listen to/humor this shit. For your viewing pleasure, we bring you the only way to stay awake/alive […]

Deantini’s love of Bwog contests knows no bounds. In a recent meeting, he told us that Columbia College is trying to step up its social media game and desperately needs a witty hashtag for Twitter and Instagram. “I’ve been wracking my brain, losing sleep for weeks, but I just can’t think of a good CC-related […]
