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.

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.
