Femsex is our awesome sex positivity group on campus. While most meetings are a safe space, feministic explorer Isabella Johnson attended a special facilitator meeting to hear the deal. The meeting begins with check-ins: name, preferred gender pronoun, access to space (physical/ emotional), and your answer to the daily question. The meeting took place on […]
The moment we have all collectively dreamed of has finally arrived: come October 8th, the WKCR Classical Verdi Bicentennial will begin, and it will be everything the Wagner Bicentennial was and more. A 48-hour broadcast will celebrate Verdi’s life and work, and general musical delight will abound. While the full schedule has yet to be […]
So much for a Saturday off: the House Republicans will meet in a rare Saturday session to try to keep the government open past Monday (NYT). How early is too early to leave New York? (Answer: never leave.) And then, how early is too early to write about it? (Gothamist) The drama behind the end […]
Last night in Hamilton 602, German archaeologist Sigrid Vierck charmed Homer enthusiasts and Lit Hum students alike. “Who is that boy in the movies? Indiana Jones…? I think I’m more like Lara Croft because I’m a woman.” Vierck may not be the next Indiana Jones or Lara Croft, but her lecture on Homeric objects had […]
FIRST: From 6 to 8 pm tonight, the Columbia University Film Production crew is throwing a Meet & Greet in the Carman Lounge. Not only will there be meeting and greeting, but also Bwog’s fav activity: trivia! There will also, as with every other event, be pizza. SECOND: Tonight at 9:30 pm, the West Campus […]
There’s a smattering of musical events featuring your classmates around the city tonight and through the weekend. It’ll probably be more fun than breaking into some rando senior’s EC townhouse. NEWER SOUNDS: Back to School When: Tonight from 5-10 pm Where: Hostelling International at 104th and Amsterdam Cost: $5 for students Who: Not one but three […]
The week your walk to class continued to be impeded by security for the World Leaders Forum. Yesterday in Low Enrico Letta, Italy’s Prime Minister, spoke. Italian idol Alexandra Svokos tried to make her nonna proud. There is no form of gradual disillusionment worse than going to your first World Leaders Forum in freshman year, […]
I lost my blue camelback water bottle in Milbank Hall on the 3rd floor. It’s medium-sized. If you found it or know where it is, please email me at rht2111@barnard.edu
Everyone needs a way to relax. Columbia offers meditation every Wednesday at 6 pm in the Schapiro main lounge. Meditative martyr Fainan Lakha looked to unite with the Divine. I’ve been feeling a little stressed out lately; it’s the end of the third week of classes and everyone is starting to become very enthusiastic (read: […]
Lots of important people have been stopping by Columbia for the United Nations General Assembly just to talk to you! We sent our Mindful Minion Miranda Kantor to see what Herman Von Rompuy–a mild-mannered Belgian whose hobbies include winning the Nobel Peace Prize, writing Haiku, and being president of the European Council–had to say at the World […]
We’re all to blame. (BBC) Too many cars are to blame. And maybe cheese? (CNN) We’re gonna go ahead and blame Ted Cruz for this one. (NYT) Blame it on some Yankee dirt in your eyes. (NYDN) Are you kidding me HuffPost? Just an honorable mention? After all we’ve been through?! Blame listicles and the […]
One of the most beloved features of Columbia housing is the lack of any sort of ventilation system in the majority of undergrad buildings. People who’ve moved into McBain/Watt/Woodbridge/etc during the blazing heat of August know what we mean. There’s nothing quite like lugging boxes, altering bed heights, re-arranging desks, and generally exerting more physical […]
