Anyone who visits Tea Magic will notice these two weird signs on the counter, alarming and urgent in the way zoo signs can say, “DO NOT feed the lions!!” The signs have been there for a while. So what exactly happens if you do speak to the tea specialist…? We asked three different Tea Magic […]
Many students have finally cozied into their new homes in the dorms, beginning to realize that they love or hate the decision they spent months making last spring. Big Plimpin resident Courtney Couillard defends the choice of living in dorms farther from the main campus. Living away from campus in either off-campus housing or some […]
Big Lots has taken product review to the next level. In their ad, they have created a “Pet Focus Group” to better determine the quality of their products. Needless to say, there was a slight loss of communication. (Adweek) The Staten Island Zoo attempted to coverup the death of groundhog Staten Island Chuck after he […]
On Tuesday night, a group of brave bwoggers ventured where no CU student had gone before: the recently opened Beer Hall, Bernheim & Schwartz. Warning: choices not suitable for a Tuesday were made. Bernheim & Schwartz (aka the place where Havana Central used to be) doesn’t exactly roll off the tongue. However, the possibilities for “Weekend […]

Deresiewicz, author of the widely-read “The Disadvantages of An Elite Education,” is well known for his anti-Ivy-League stance (or, rather, his anti-sheep stance), making his visit to Columbia especially intriguing. Below is an open letter from a self-proclaimed “spectacular sheep,” addressing many of Deresiewicz’s main points. Dear Mr. […]
Monday night’s SGA meeting was really short again, so Barnard Bearoness Lauren Beltrone reiterates what SGA has been trying to communicate to you via emails you probably haven’t had time to read. Have you ever imagined how great your life would be if you were more involved in SGA? Have you ever walked past the […]
In a school with few traditions, and fewer moments of unity, the Varsity Show stands as one of our most celebrated, and important, institutions. Whether by articulating a culture as hard to define as it is to find, reminding us of those shared moments of Columbia life, or else by mercilessly satirizing the administration, the Varsity […]
You can dine in high style at little expense. Or at least as Michelin (the ones who assign stars) would have us believe with their new list of the best New York meals under $40. (Business Insider) Air conditioning units will occasionally fall on you. But only occasionally so you probably shouldn’t worry. The last death was […]
Last night, Téa Obreht spoke at the Maison Française about her critically-aclaimed book The Tiger’s Wife, her writing process, writing as part of the healing process, and her new works.

People usually take a night in the But to study, but recently there have been several eyewitness reports of various people masturbating instead of studying (or maybe while studying? Who knows). According to our reports, these self-pleasuring booty calls to […]
