ESC was up to its usual shenanigans last night, discussing reforms, dressing up for important administrators, and thinking about things to repair on campus, (sprinklers, for example). Bureau Chief Aparajita Maitra was there to get the fix. The ESC meeting last night was more official than usual, with members on council dressed in formal attire […]
Today is Tuesday, October 7, and if you’re in CC or Barnard, that date holds special significance for you. Alas, today is the deadline for dropping a non-Core class (the Core deadline passed a while ago) if you don’t want that nasty W on your record for all of your potential employer’s hiring managers to […]
The Supreme Court upheld the decisions of several federal appeals courts that ruled in favor of same-sex marriage in five new states, including historically conservative Oklahoma and Utah. What would the Book of Mormon say? (NYT) USA Swimming has suspended Michael Phelps from USA Swimming competitions (and funding) for the next six months and next […]
Since Friday, we’ve been flooded with suggestions about what to name the newest addition to our Columbia family. After all, in a world filled with MoHi and Prezbo, a name like Bernheim & Schwartz doesn’t exactly roll of the tongue. We extend claps, emoji stars, and bittersweet participation trophies to everyone who submitted names to us — the competition was steep […]
This weekend’s athletic pursuits started off October on the right track (no pun intended, it’s not even that sport season, right?). Sportiest Bwogger Ross Chapman brings you this weekend’s victories by golfing queens and field hockey stars; read on for upcoming opportunities to spectate during homecoming month. While Columbia Athletics lagged a bit this weekend compared […]
Brave souls Maia Berlow and Robert Sheardown brought the exaggerated phrase “I literally live in Butler” to credible life by spending their entire weekends actually cooped up in Butler. Starting on Friday and ending on Sunday, they’ve somewhat surprisingly lived to tell you the tale of 48 hours in The But. Backpacks stuffed, extra bags […]
In honor of Barnard’s 125th anniversary, the Empire State Building’s glowing color of choice this evening will be Barnard Blue. We anticipate students will be flocking to find a good view on a high floor of glassy NoCo, squinting really hard on the Amsterdam bridge to East Campus, or calling up their friend-of-a-friend that has an upscale […]
Key notes from keynote visitor to the CCSC meeting last night and other miscellaneous points summed up for you by veteran CCSC correspondent, Joe Milholland. At Sunday night’s Columbia College Student Council meeting, Dean of Advising Monique Rinere from CSA came to talk to the council about changes to the leave of absence policy and […]
Surprise! Your childhood nightmare of that one time when Pluto lost its elite status as a planet has now been reversed. Maybe. (USA Today) “Occupy” is reemerging as a political battle cry, but this time on the opposite side of the world. (NPR) The Amanda Show star might be one push of a pedal closer […]
Last Monday, the Global Mental Health Program and the Center for the Core Curriculum hosted “Far From Home—Syria: The ‘Trojan’ Women.” Daily Editor Rachel Deal gives her account of the presentation. The presentation featured an adaptation of the Trojan Women production, performed by Syrian refugee women in Jordan as a form of art therapy. The creator […]
One of the bathrooms on John Jay 13 has been “occupied” for the past two weeks. Why is this the case, you ask? We conjectured that someone was cooking valuable quantities of meth (Breaking Bad is still big after all). Hell, a new resident might be living there. As it turns out, however, our favorite freshman shit hole dormitory is simply falling apart. […]
