Between International and Liquors on La Salle, Columbia students have limited options when it comes to where they can buy their alcohol. Enter the three self-titled ‘Mead Meisters’: homebrew enthusiasts and free-spirits set on providing the Columbia community with the opportunity to join a ‘mead club’ for a small monthly ‘contribution.’ Two Bwoggers sat down with the […]

Isn’t the Friday before Bacchanal just glorious? Birds are singing, sorority girls are bedazzling their fanny packs, and students are picking up from their dealer just in time for the big day. To help you get through the big day, we have put together our annual Bacchanal survival guide with all the info you need […]

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 […]

Carman may be known for its athletes, alcohol-stained carpeting, and the fact that the bedboards can be removed and placed across two chairs to create beer pong tables, but one freshman is doing it better with his daringly decorated dorm.  Filled with K-pop tchotchkes, this poppin’ room was calling for a RoomHop feature. We sent […]

Libby Kandel and Christina Clark, aka Bwog’s kangaroos of room-hopping, went to get the story behind the intriguingly bare room of a John Jay resident. “Did you just get robbed?” would be an appropriate question when you walk into the room of Resident X* on John Jay 13. He’ll shrug his shoulders and say, “I […]

Bwog took a trip to the LLC on the rumor that a simple single had been converted into a castle. And indeed, the rumors were true. As always, if you find a room that you think should be hopped, send it to tips@bwog.com Rienzi Gokea has a creative soul, but he decided to take the […]

It’s time to bring back our somewhat regular In Defense Of feature, where we uphold the hated, disgusted, and all-around avoided Columbia establishments. This week, food eater Josh Dillon leaves the Ferris omelet line to grab some yogurt and support Uni Café. I don’t consider myself a foodie, food connoisseur, or even healthy. I’m a sophomore with 14 meals/week […]

You’ve seen them around campus, in your friends’ room, in your room, in your bed..? We’re speaking, of course, about your friendly neighborhood mice! Here, Bwog presents five cute li’l critters who are just looking for some love in a lonely world. Hit them up (if you dare). Señor Pancho: Originally my family hails from […]

With the new semester comes a new pair of girls, anonymous and cynical toward the world, to tackle 2girls1snack because Bwog knows you missed this series dearly. In choosing the snack for this edition, the two girls really just were craving dessert and settled on the classic cheesecake. Bwog knows mom and grandma have told […]

Note: The author of this post definitely does not advocate that others eat the same food groups she does. She grew up in an Italian family, eating some sort of pasta six out of seven nights per week, and she has never broken the carb addiction. See your elementary school cafeteria for recommendations on healthy […]

The romantic nights of spending some quality time with your lover, Butler Library, are upon us all with midterms here for some. Bwog ventured into the place itself to see what are the weirdest things you have snuck into Butler to get you through those long study nights. 2nd Floor: My friend took his dog […]

Tomorrow morning is the beginning of sophomore suite selection. Rising sophomores, your housing options will pretty much be Schapiro, Wien, Nussbaum, Broadway, or the most notorious of sophomore dorms, sometimes known as Carman 2.0, occasionally called McBizzzzz, often referred to as a pit/dump/hellhole: McBain. The distant noises of sophomore selection are all singing the same […]

This Valentine’s Day, Bwog wants you to stop grumbling and be happy.  We enlisted Alexander Pines and Alexandra Svokos to cover both sides of the argument—Alexander has barely been single since he was 14, while Alexandra has avoided relationships since she was 14.  Will you please stop posting Adele gifs, please? Alexander: Sure you like […]
