College Walk Archetypes: Chain-Smoking Intellectual

By Bwog Staff on Dec 14, 2013 12 Comments

Remember the glory of Butler Archetypes? We missed them on Bwog so we’re bringing them back with an eye for College Walk (and being incredibly liberal in our definition of “College Walk” such that it basically constitutes anything between Butler and Low). First up, we asked Features Editor Alexander Pines to give us the chain-smoking […]

Actual Quote: “I sat on Lee Bollinger’s bed and was watching football on TV.”

By Bwog Staff on Dec 14, 2013 12 Comments

Before Bollinger was president of Columbia, he was president of Michigan. And despite the way he left—setting off a not-minor kerfluffle at UMich by leaving right after averring that he had no intention to leave—PrezBo left his mark on UMich. See, at right, PrezBo at a house party he hosted after a huge UMich football […]
