By Bwog Staff on Nov 21, 2013 7 Comments

Bwog’s been thinking a lot about deans lately. Walking around campus and looking at signs on doors and titles on emails, we realized that you can’t throw a rock on this campus without hitting a dean.

By Bwog Staff on Nov 21, 2013 0 Comments

CUMB Gets Made Fun Of, Doesn’t Like It

By Bwog Staff on Nov 20, 2013 52 Comments

By Bwog Staff on Nov 20, 2013 1 Comments

This week Bwog received a tip about a student, Sonya Li, who baked a ludicrous amount of baked goods last week. Unfortunately she sold them for money instead of distributing them to downtrodden passersby on College Walk free of charge (just kidding, kidding). Fortunately, she sold them for a good cause.
