Bwoglines: Things Come and Go Edition

By Bwog Staff on Jan 29, 2013 1 Comments

New York has finally acknowledged that those ‘No Honking’ signs were not stopping anyone. The honking never seems to stop anyone either, so the whole debate seems futile. (NYT) Trying to escape death is also futile. Apparently the average life span of a species can usually be determined from its average size. (NPR) Detroit may […]

Bwog Asked: “Why Are You Here?”

By Bwog Staff on Jan 28, 2013 2 Comments

Work may not be bothering you in Butler yet, but Bwog is! We spent our Sunday night asking the few souls who are already studying in Butler, “Why are you here?” only to quickly realize that it was a silly question. While Bwog’s shoddy work ethic keeps us from the depths of the library until […]

What the Core Should Teach

By Bwog Staff on Jan 28, 2013 15 Comments

As spring internships start, we here at Bwog have realized that knowing exactly where Odysseus went, the intricacies of a Hobbesian state of nature, and the proxies involved in fMRIs aren’t very useful in a real workplace. With that in mind, we have compiled a list of classes the Core should teach in order to maximize […]

Lecture Hall Reviews: NoCo 501

By Bwog Staff on Jan 28, 2013 16 Comments

Remembering our fine tradition of reviewing things that don’t really matter pass over the undiscerning eye (such as pastries, cafes and chairs), we mark the beginning of a new semester with the beginning of a new set of criticisms — in this case, the lecture hall. After all, environment is everything. Our first assessment comes from […]

Overseen: John Jay Goes Cray Cray

By Bwog Staff on Jan 28, 2013 19 Comments

One of John Jay’s elevators has been undergoing emergency repair since the beginning of the semester. The oppressed and alienated residents of the 15-story building now have to make a choice: to arduously wait in line for up to 20 minutes or to scale the building’s interminable stairs. Enraged, the John Jayites are rising against […]

Bye Bye Card Catalog

By Bwog Staff on Jan 28, 2013 19 Comments

Half of the space in Butler 310 that was taken up by the card catalog is now occupied by new neat-o desks and chairs for studying. Which is a good thing, since apparently the catalog hadn’t been updated since 1985. You can go ahead and leave your condolences for this dying and painfully time-consuming research […]

CCSC: Back to Reality

By Bwog Staff on Jan 28, 2013 1 Comments

CCSC is back, and so is Bwog’s coverage of it. We sent someone to report on this magical mystery: Maren Killackey. Here’s her account: After a slight mixup with the Georgian Students Association (yeah, it exists) regarding whose turn it was to use the Satow room (cue typical-Columbia-with-its-space-issues eyeroll/politically incorrect and unfunny joke about South […]

Bwoglines: Shit Edition

By Bwog Staff on Jan 28, 2013 1 Comments

Literal: Dung beetles apparently use the Milky Way to guide their poo-hauling journeys. Maybe they could bring some here to unclog McBain toilets? (Reuters) Potential: Rumors that the iPad 4 is coming are already coming. Apparently the new model features a revolutionary change: a larger memory. *gasp* (CNET) Figurative: As sanctions increase, so do fears of cannibalism […]

Fencing cleaned up at the Penn State Invitational on January 12th, winning nine […]

So You Think You Can Dance….For 18 Hours?

By Bwog Staff on Jan 27, 2013 2 Comments

Looks like attendees were having a good time (18 hours worth of time) at the Columbia University Dance Marathon (CUDM) last night. All proceeds from the “dance party” fundraising event went to the Elizabeth Glaser Pediatric AIDS Foundation towards the fight against pediatric HIV/AIDS. Congrats to everyone who participated, even though you’re all probably asleep right now […]

This Is Not A Test: Pipe Bursts In Hewitt

By Bwog Staff on Jan 27, 2013 2 Comments

A concerned tipster clued Bwog in on a pipe allegedly bursting in the basement of Hewitt on Barnard’s campus. The building was evacuated, but students have been let in again, although water has been turned off for 3-4 hours. Computer labs in Sulzberger are currently flooded. Bwog is still awaiting a reply from the Barnard […]
