By Bwog Staff on Nov 24, 2013 2 Comments

Bucket List represents the unbelievable intellectual privilege we enjoy as Columbia students. Aka, you’re paying for tuition and might as well get the most out of it, right? This is a short week because of Thanksgiving break, but the pickings are good across all disciplines. Recommended: “NYC Summit on Children: Keynote With Mayor-Elect Bill de Blasio” […]

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.

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, […]
