By Bwog Staff on Feb 20, 2014 0 Comments

We really love keeping you up to date on all of the student government councils on campus. There’s ESC…CCSC…JCCC…SGA (obviously)…but wait, what about the other one? This Monday’s SGA meeting was all about one of the acronyms you probably don’t hear as much, GSSC, and how to change that. Bwogger and lover of abbreviations/GS Lauren […]

Columbia University’s own theoretical physicist and “World Science U” founder Brian Greene was recently a guest on The Colbert Report, where he gave Stephen Colbert a crash course in Einstein’s relativity theory, and explained why anyone would even want to teach (or learn about) science on the Internet anyway. Enjoy the clip below, or check it […]

“You’re In Bad Taste!” And Other Information From the Best End Preview

By Bwog Staff on Feb 20, 2014 4 Comments

Orgo Night previewed this past Tuesday night in a totally free event held on Low Steps, a clear spoof on the West End Preview. Bwog’s own #1 Band Fan Claire Friedman checked that out, reluctantly. I wrapped a scarf around my neck and pulled on a hat, turning to tell my roommate that, “I just […]

By Bwog Staff on Feb 20, 2014 2 Comments

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) […]

V120 West End Preview Review

By Bwog Staff on Feb 19, 2014 11 Comments

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 […]

Lena Dunham Judges Nonfiction Contest, Entire Campus Submits That One Piece They Wrote in UWriting Freshman Year

By Bwog Staff on Feb 19, 2014 1 Comments

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. Of course we quoted that line), and we know there was at least one week in 2012 when Girls […]

Diana Roof To Be Permanently Opened (Later)

By Bwog Staff on Feb 19, 2014 13 Comments

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 […]

By Bwog Staff on Feb 19, 2014 2 Comments

New CBO study shows that increasing minimum wage might increase paychecks, but also decrease jobs. Well, duh.
