Bucket List represents the unbelievable intellectual privilege we enjoy as Columbia students. We do our very best to bring to your attention important guest lecturers and special events on campus. As always, feel free to mention any events we may have missed in the comments section and we’ll add them. Our recommendations for this week […]
This afternoon, a group of Columbia students will be protesting at the White House against the signing of the Keystone XL pipeline. The Columbia Democrats in particular have advertised the non-violent protest. Bwog received a tip that there are currently over 500 students chained to the White House fence, including at least 20 Columbia students. […]
Housing approacheth. And, unless you’re on top of it, it’s probably coming up sooner than you think. Before you start knocking on random doors and demanding to know how many tennis balls could fit into the room if the room is haunted what they’ve named their mouse and what its living habits are the room’s […]
Be healthy: Seeing Barack and Joe break a sweat is a sure fire way to make anyone want to spend a couple extra minutes on the treadmill. (The State Column) Get drunk: Don’t worry—bottomless brunches are still legal in New York and it is still socially acceptable to be tipsy by 11am on a Sunday. […]
Archbishop Emeritus Desmond Tutu and his daughter, the Reverend Mpho Tutu graced Low Rotunda with their presence Friday evening.

Back in December Bwog told you about the über-talented Taylor Simone, CC ’14, and her campaign to bring her music to life. Well the wait is over, and the spectacular music video for her song “Greedy” is here. Check out the video, made by her friend and roommate Soleil Grant, CC ’14, below. You can […]
Hillary looks perfect to us, but apparently her advisers think otherwise. We don’t think it’s negative that’s she’s an unstoppable badass. (Washington Post) If you think the snow here was bad, we actually did alright. (Houston Chronicle) Some ventures are really worth dropping the big bucks on. The Core Curriculum would approve. (Chicago Tribune) Pertinent, […]
CC major declaration is around the corner (March 10-13th), which means that this is a grand time for sophomores to watch all of their friends oscillate between English, Anthropology, Art History, and that Stats degree their dad’s friend from high school thought they should get—only to end up declaring Political Science or Econ, of course.
