By Bwog Staff on Feb 08, 2014 0 Comments

Despite controversy surrounding Russia’s gay propaganda laws, the Sochi 2014 Winter Olympics started off with a bang last night. The opening ceremony oscillated between creepy, glitchy, and magnificent. Bwog wants to share our favorite parts of the show with you: The light-up Olympic rings fiasco, which became a t-shirt the instant it happened. How did the designer […]

Overseen: Dark Fortune

By Bwog Staff on Feb 08, 2014 1 Comments

Some bitter soul tucked this foreboding fortune into the blueprint of the Barnard pool. To them, we ask, “who really needs a pool when the tunnels around Hewitt always smell like one anyway?” RIP pool

Bwoglines: Getting Wild Edition

By Bwog Staff on Feb 08, 2014 1 Comments

A comment on female hysteria? Hear from the artists themselves. (HuffPost Live) He probably just wanted to give the First Lady a hug. Because unfortunately, President Obama is out of town. (NY Daily News) The fencing team’s 82-year-old coach is basically “Yoda.” (NY Times) We started the Olympics off in our usual dominant fashion. U-S-A! […]

Named Scholarship Reception Speaker Makes Surprisingly Ungenerous Remarks

By Bwog Staff on Feb 07, 2014 21 Comments

Last night, Deantini held a reception for recipients and donors of named scholarships. One of the speakers was longtime donor Daniel Loeb ’83, the founder and CEO of an “event-driven, value-oriented” hedge fund headquartered in New York. And apparently he held some intensely fiscally conservative views. All of our staff who were invited had, um, […]

PSA: Broad Daylight is No Longer Safe

By Bwog Staff on Feb 07, 2014 7 Comments

Announcements from Barnard and Columbia Public Safety confirm that yesterday at 2:10 pm, two students were robbed at gunpoint by an unknown male in Morningside Park. In broad daylight, people, midafternoon, almost tea time. Morningside Park may look like a pretty park full of adorable cats, but apparently it’s also a hotbed of crime. No […]

Bwoglines: Jobless Edition

By Bwog Staff on Feb 07, 2014 0 Comments

Here are the new numbers that your parents can forward you from their more politically active friends reminding you why you’re getting that economics degree instead of a BA in Francophone studies like you’ve always dreamed.

By Bwog Staff on Feb 06, 2014 12 Comments

As you make your way through the snow and slush that have recently taken over our campus, consider taking shelter inside one of Columbia’s most… interesting buildings: The Seeley W. Mudd Building, home of Columbia engineering. It was built in 1966, as a celebration of Satan’s 1300th anniversary. Go ahead, make your way there—you’ll find […]

#tbt: Twins

By Bwog Staff on Feb 06, 2014 2 Comments

Bwog’s lifeblood is institutional memory. Britt Fossum delved into the archives of the RBML just in time for #tbt. This week’s edition just kind of happened by accident. One of the boxes of historical photographs of Columbia in the rare books and manuscript library is labelled simply Columbia: Traditions. Within this box were pictures of […]
