The Remaking Of Aleppo Under Nur Al-Din And The Early Ayyubids

By Romane Thomas on Feb 19, 2016 0 Comments

Islamic art is complicated and utterly unique–quite unlike other religious art. We sent bwogger Romane Thomas to explore an intimidatingly titled lecture on architecture in ancient Aleppo, and here’s what she took away. “We begin to think about things when they’re gone.” Thus unfolded the first lecture in the Disrupting Unity and Discerning Rupture Series, […]

Bwoglines: [Insert Enemy Here] Ain’t Sh** Edition

By Bwog Staff on Feb 19, 2016 0 Comments

Pope Francis called Donald Trump a heathen –suggested Trump was un-Christian, due to the presidential candidate’s stance on Mexico, but we’re pretty sure most of Donald’s other opinions are also effed up. (NY Times) Apple is fighting the FBI, and might win. The feds possess a dead terrorist’s encrypted phone that they can’t unlock, and […]

Get Your Shit Together, Columbia

By Bwog Staff on Feb 18, 2016 1 Comments

Dear Columbia, You need to get your shit together. Like, okay, we understand that midterm season is approaching. Exams are stressful, grading curves are harsh and unyielding, you really just want to go to sleep. We feel the same way. But at the same time, isn’t midterm season pretty much always approaching? And should that […]

Marginalia – The Iliad and The Odyssey

By Ross Chapman on Feb 18, 2016 2 Comments

In a new Bwog feature, we go into Butler Library to explore some of the most checked-out books at Columbia. Once we find them, we look not at the content of the literature but at the discourse around them. The notes written in by generations of students, if they don’t illuminate some new feature of […]

Books At Bars: How Does 1020 Rank As A Study Destination?

By Bwog Staff on Feb 18, 2016 0 Comments

Apparently, studying in bars is something students at this university do–there’s nothing like reading St. Augustine’s Confessions over a Long Island Iced Tea, right (we’re kidding)?? We sent one of our staff writers to 1020 this past Sunday to check out what the ambience is like for doing homework. I made the icy trek to 1020 late […]

Bwoglines: Existential Crisis Edition

By Bwog Staff on Feb 18, 2016 0 Comments

The Hubble Telescope recently captured a photo of a black hole! Cool, right? Also, the black hole happens to be about 21 billion times bigger than the Sun. Just in case you were thinking about having an existential crisis tonight. (Yahoo) South Dakota reminded everyone of its existence in the worst way possible–by introducing discriminatory legislature […]

In Case You Missed Yesterday’s Hurricane

By Bwog Staff on Feb 17, 2016 1 Comments

We’re not sure how you could have missed it—the high-speed winds, the slanted rain, the overwhelming sense that you were fighting against nature and ultimately, would lose. At some point, while trudging along Upper Campus and courting your anxious umbrella (who really wanted to get away from you), you felt as though the wind was the […]

USenate Sends Updates On Student Space, Course Evaluations

By Bwog Staff on Feb 17, 2016 0 Comments

USenate doesn’t send updates too often, so we were surprised by their recent email detailing ongoing policy discussions. The initiatives mentioned were increasing space for students (for studying and clubs) as some schools begin to move uptown, a revamping of course evaluation protocol, and a mention of the movement to commemorate the Lenape peoples with a plaque on campus. Additionally, […]

PSA: Vine Is Not Responsible For Your Life

By Jennifer Nugent on Feb 17, 2016 3 Comments

Vine truther Jennifer Nugent refuses to keep her mouth shut, and delivers to you a tale of stunningly terrible customer service. Recently, I have been hearing a lot of horror stories about Vine, Columbia’s most convenient sushi supplier. Just last week, I witnessed a customer in the process of getting reimbursed for a meal he had at […]

GSSC Undergoes A Makeover And Makes Decisions

By Romane Thomas on Feb 17, 2016 1 Comments

Upheaval, new faces, rap music, and fractions were what best characterized last night’s GSSC’s meeting, at least according to our resident Roone reporter, Romane Thomas. With a notable lack of alliteration, she breezily gives us all the deets. Yesterday night’s General Studies Student Council (GSSC) meeting turned theatrical when the student council moved from its normal meeting […]

Bwoglines: International Intrigue Edition

By Bwog Staff on Feb 17, 2016 0 Comments

Has PrezOb taken a page out of Shonda Rhimes’s playbook and murdered a United States justice, a la Scandal’s Fitz? Well, at least one person thinks so. (Black Bag) A presumably wide-eyed Arkansas tourist had his skull fractured by a mysterious ex-con; the tourist had refused to buy tickets to the Statue of Liberty from his […]
