Actual Quote: “I sat on Lee Bollinger’s bed and was watching football on TV.”

By Bwog Staff on Dec 14, 2013 12 Comments

Before Bollinger was president of Columbia, he was president of Michigan. And despite the way he left—setting off a not-minor kerfluffle at UMich by leaving right after averring that he had no intention to leave—PrezBo left his mark on UMich.

After hearing about toddler frat Sigma Alpha Epsilon having their recognition withdrawn, Bwog’s Sarah Faith Thompson sat down with two former senior brothers.

It took one brave, yet disgruntled mechanical engineering student to finally do something about it. Your not-so-anonymous tipster/resident tinkerer, […]
