What the Flip are Honorary Degrees?

By Bwog Staff on Jan 24, 2014 1 Comments

What do Maurice Sendak, the Dalai Lama, Tim Berners-Lee, Georgia O’Keefe, and PrezBo have in common?

A tipster on College Walk overheard this intriguing tidbit: “No way! So, your uncle makes murder porn!?” Bwog has two questions. First, what the fuck is murder porn (please DON’T answer that in the comments), and second, why would you let your niece/nephew know that? Sexy murderer via Shutterstock

By Bwog Staff on Jan 24, 2014 3 Comments

Tipsters report that “some dude in a suit being filmed as he leans nonchalantly by the banister to some awful europop being blasted on speakers” and there’s some “weird pole dancing going on.” Bwog investigated and found a photo shoot for a “big fashion magazine,” according to the photographer, happening in front of Low’s scenic […]

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.

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 […]
