A tipster sent us this photo of progressive house DJ 3LAU‘s spring touring schedule. It’s also posted on his official Facebook page. Look at April 18th: “New York, NY Columbia University” It’s not clear exactly why he’ll be playing here, though.

Picture this scenario: it’s 3:40 am, and you’re lying in bed trying to fall asleep and subsequently wake up for your 8:40 class tomorrow.

Should You Open the Blinds?

By Bwog Staff on Mar 07, 2013 3 Comments

In the February issue of The Blue and White, Torsten Odland and Matthew Schantz tangle over whether you should, well, open the blinds. You should read the full issue either by (1) picking it up on campus or (2) letting your fingers do the walking, and logging on to theblueandwhite.org. I like to have the blinds […]

How Much Is That Nutella Really Costing Us?

By Bwog Staff on Mar 07, 2013 18 Comments

By now you’ve probably heard about Columbia’s issues with Nutella. As campus comes to terms with the fact that we’re all apparently hoarders, the Nutella story continues to grow. Our chocolatey addiction and its exorbitant cost has received a surprising amount of attention, causing us at Bwog to wonder: how much of this is really […]

Bacchanal Finally Releases Statement

By Bwog Staff on Mar 06, 2013 46 Comments

Because Bwog has been excluded from Bacchanal coverage, Bacchanal has released a statement only to Spec. It doesn’t really say much, unless you read between the lines. When Bacchanal says they’re “looking forward to announcing this year’s lineup, and nothing has changed in that regard,” the implication is pretty clear: what has changed is that Macklemore […]
