FYI Our Mascot Was Almost a Goat

By Bwog Staff on Jan 23, 2014 2 Comments

In 1910, Columbia chose the lion as its official mascot. While you might be nodding along with that decision (and why not? Lions are pretty badass), we invite you to consider one word before solidifying your opinion: Matilda. And if you need a second word: goat. Matilda was a goat who lived with squatter Patrick […]

Please Drop This Class

By Bwog Staff on Jan 23, 2014 7 Comments

Registration has never been particularly kind to the Creative Writing Department. Students apply for workshops right before the semester starts and have to get an Add/Drop form signed and brought to Kent, conveniently right downstairs from CW classes! the CSA. It’s not uncommon to hear complaints of a $15 “late registration” fee charged on top of tuition […]

A Conversation With BuzzFeed Editor-in-Chief Ben Smith

By Bwog Staff on Jan 23, 2014 5 Comments

Bwog loves BuzzFeed. We couldn’t make it through recitations and reading week without 27 Cats in Santa Hats Playing the Piano or 44 Ways Being A Twenty-Something Is The Greatest. We do enough reading already, dammit, and we just want to look at gifs. Naturally we were very excited when we heard the the Columbia […]

Candidate Mixer for CCSC and ESC Spring Elections

By Bwog Staff on Jan 23, 2014 0 Comments

Vote or die, according to the Columbia Elections Board. They are hosting a candidate mixer with free pizza this Thursday for students interested in running for CCSC and ESC in the spring. Maybe this year won’t be quite as uncontested as the last, though we’re not especially hopeful. According to their Facebook event: Spring elections aren’t until late March, but we encourage […]

Bwoglines: Earth-Shattering Edition

By Bwog Staff on Jan 23, 2014 1 Comments

Just yesterday, Obama spoke out about the college sexual assault epidemic and presented a White House report detailing how “1 in 5 female students assaulted while only 1 in 8 student victims report it,” now initiating a “task force” to work on this issue.

Opening Remarks

By Bwog Staff on Jan 22, 2014 7 Comments

Classes begin once again, and the first class is always the time that professors try to woo you with humor and niceness before they push you into Butler for many a busy night. But hey, that doesn’t need to spoil the humor. We think some of these professors could just as well be on Comedy […]

Columbia’s Ever-changing Bureaucracy

By Bwog Staff on Jan 22, 2014 3 Comments

Update, 12:05 pm: CCSC President Daphne Chen has reached out to us to note that CCSC member Kareem Carryl is responsible for getting the changes made, in order to “help students feel like administrators do care at least a little about students’ lives and achievements.” Thanks, Kareem! It has come to Bwog’s intensely wanted attention that Dean’s […]

A Study of Techniques For Removing Snow From Shoes

By Bwog Staff on Jan 22, 2014 0 Comments

January 22nd, 2014. Columbia University. I continue my observation of the students at Columbia University. The weather is unusually cold today and snow covers the extensive walkways except where some sort of magical melting powder has been spread; this causes the students to rush from class to class with twice the speed they usually do.

We overheard two gentlemen at the Columbia bookstore buying their books for CC, and it doesn’t seem like they know what they’ve signed up for. Guy: I’ve got to buy two more books for CC, one’s called Three… Jinnies… and the other is by… Frehd, Frawd… Frohd? Guy’s friend: How do you spell that? It’s […]
