Oh, Republican Party. You and your emails. (The Nation) Columbia’s resident Olympian Sasha Cohen might be hoping for the U.S. to win in Sochi, but naturally she’s betting on South Korea and Russia. (People) Pussy Riot is still under attack. (CNN) When good movies are left to mediocre critics, unfortunately “it’s still obnoxious hokum.” (BuzzFeed) Damn. (YouTube) […]

Late last night, Bwog was ushered into the back room of Havana, usually reserved for drunken revelry and awkward hook-ups, for a different sort of party—The 120th Annual Varsity Show’s West End Preview. Although it still had its share of awkward premises and jokes that fell flat, we should note that we’re going to be […]

Bwog was just tipped that there is a manhole on fire on the corner of 113th and Broadway. As of now, the street is closed off. Residents along 113th street smell smoke, and firetrucks are on the scene. We’ll update as we hear more.

PSA: Lena Dunham is judging Quarto’s nonfiction writing contest this semester. We repeat, Lena Dunham. Regardless of your taste/distaste for her, she’s at the very least “a voice of a generation” (yes we quoted that line.

The results from the SGA grant proposal are in: the Diana roof will now be open full-time for “recreational purposes.” Although a seemingly simple concept, opening the room actually requires installing a ten-foot high fence, which will cost between $50,000 and $60,000. It’ll be partly subsidized by the Barnard administration, but the project, the first […]

Charlyne Yi, she of House, Knocked Up, and Paper Heart fame, is coming to Columbia! In Live at Lerner’s first “evening” program of 2014, she’s speaking/making you laugh for two hours tonight at 8 in Lerner Party Space. In case you didn’t know (as if), she’s cool and hilarious and once hung out with Fred […]

New CBO study shows that increasing minimum wage might increase paychecks, but also decrease jobs. Well, duh. (NPR) The guy who shot someone at a Walmart isn’t being charged because he claimed self-defense.  (NY Daily News) City council in Stoke-On-Trent wants to text its overweight citizens. Tax dollars at their finest. (Slate) NPR’s got the […]

Ben Kornick’s spot as CCSC 2016 representative was up for the grabs Sunday night, when Daphne Chen announced Kornick’s resignation from his position for “personal reasons.” CCSC just released a statement announcing that the elections to fill the vacancy will be direct, and that interested candidates can register here. A major issue in the recent deliberations between […]

Bwog is getting to be sick of SparkNotes, which seems to be lacking a lot of key core texts (we’re looking at you, Herodotus).  Lucky for us, we recently learned that Rap Genius’s poetry site has a section devoted to Columbia’s Core texts. Although most of them only have annotations on the first few books, there […]
