Last night’s Halloween revelries marked the beginning of Fall Break, which means that Bwog is hopping on a train home to eat take-out on the couch with their dog/cat/alone all weekend long. A.k.a, we’re on break. Take a break and relax too, you deserve it. OR go and fight inequality abroad for four days. Whichever […]

In part two of a two-part series, Bwogger Alison Herman argues in favor of pulling out all the stops tonight. Because you’re better than “guy who escaped from a painting.” Fall is a lot of things: sweater weather, decorative gourd season (motherfuckers), Pumpkin Spice Latte time. But most importantly, it’s time for the ONE DAY […]

It’s Halloween! The most frightful part this holiday is not the ghosts and ghouls. No, the scariest aspect is the ritual where it’s perfectly acceptable to wear nearly nothing and dress like a pimp or a ho. To build up your courage to wear the itchy, or slutty, costume you’ve chosen for the party circuit, […]

Perhaps you’re just a huge fan. Regardless of your stance, Diego Zogbhi, one time Bwog Costume Contest honorable mention (submit yours!), is clearly […]

Today Bwog’s decidedly daring correspondent Dara Homer venture’s deep into the depths of Schermerhorn to visit one of it’s…creepier settings: 506. BOO! Schermerhorn Hall is usually known for frightening students by its labyrinthine layout and terrifying scarcity of bathrooms.  But a certain room on the 5th floor contains horrors that are slightly less infamous but […]

At least one […]

In part one of a two part series (suspense!) Bwogger Claire Friedman discusses the benefits of having a really bad Halloween costume. Lazy is not a negative, people. It’s an art. I’ve never been one to go all-out on Halloween. Even when I was in elementary school, I was Pippi Longstocking for three years straight. […]

To Sleep No More?

It’s the tail-end of midterms time, meaning that you don’t necessarily need to pull an all-nighter. But should you stay up an extra hour or five? Bwog’s Alexandras have kind of morphed into the same person by this point, but they disagree fundamentally when it comes to staying up.  To Sleep, Or, Am I Really Making […]
