On Wellness, Semantics, Transparency, and Other Buzzwords

By Bwog Staff on Nov 23, 2013 49 Comments

Bwog Editor Alexandra Svokos is tired of hearing the word “wellness.” This past Sunday, the Student Wellness Project hosted their second Wellness Summit from 1-4 pm in the Diana.

By Bwog Staff on Nov 23, 2013 3 Comments

Five and a half hours into the CUDM for pediatric AIDS prevention and things seem to be going swimmingly. Bwog popped in and spotted a number of things: lots of falafel and Havana empañadas, Venom and Onyx performing, and, most importantly, Danza Kuduro blaring through the speakers. But things were looking kind of sparse so maybe […]

By Bwog Staff on Nov 23, 2013 1 Comments

In our somewhat-regular feature In Defense Of, we bring much-needed support to the most maligned Columbia (or life) institutions.

Intrigued by the intersection of sadism and masochism, Shelley Farmer reviewed the play for Bwog. The 1947 drama centers on two maids, Claire and Solange, who engage in ritualistic, sadomasochistic “games” while their employer, […]

Overheard: Adderall Papers

By Bwog Staff on Nov 22, 2013 7 Comments

While waiting for a class this week, Bwog overheard a group of TAs for a class on Buddhism talking about their students. First TA: “They’re grumpy because they don’t get any sleep and it’s also a side effect of the Adderall. You can always tell when you’re reading an Adderall paper—they think we can’t tell, […]
