Hometown heroes Vampire Weekend took to Reddit this morning to promote their brand spanking new album, Modern Vampires of the City. Along with vital topics like salmon shorts selection and Ezra Koenig’s cameo on Girls, the bandmates also upped our collective street cred by chatting about Columbia for a bit. Turns out either Chris Baio or Chris Tomson didn’t […]
In the first Senior Wisdom of the day we bring you the wonderful James Bennett II, star of Columbia’s Harlem Shake, Sensual Sundays, the International Butler Anthem, WKCR jazz shows, your dreams, and so on and so forth… Name, Hometown, School: James A. Bennett, II; Baltimore, MD (the original Bay Area- Chesapeake what up); Columbia College […]
Bwoglines: Although there probably is serious news, Bwog still cares about Jennifer Aniston. In totally unrelated news, the new Daft Punk album, Random Access Memories, leaked yesterday, but if you really love Daft Punk you already have it. Finals Tip: Have sex instead of studying for finals. According to the ever-reliable WebMD, it cures everything but cancer, as if you need a reason. Also […]
Tonight’s second Senior Wisdom: Eva Suarez, who will marry every single one of you. Name, Hometown, School: Eva Suárez, Washington DC, CC Claim to fame? I was the best RA you ever had. Or, the worst. I don’t do anything halfway. Where are you going? Most immediately, I’m moving to Brooklyn and working at a […]
Just as the collective hopes and dreams of Columbia’s campus were being crushed by the weight of finals… ducklings appear. Mama Duck and her dozen or so babies, waddling and quacking their way around the side of Butler today (did these guys get busy?!). Alas! A heavy wind sweeps a few duckling off the ledge, […]
Bwog has gotten a few tips from people who are way too stressed out lately: bwog, i want to cry. And: Lost – Motivation. Not sure where I lost it, I just kind of woke up one morning to find it was gone. Can’t write my papers without it. If found please return. We want […]
I go to Dodge all the time. And when I say Dodge, I mean Dodge Hall, where the Gabe M. Wiener Music & Arts Library is—but I did go to a basketball game once in the more athletic Dodge. The beauty of the music library is precisely in that almost no one knows where it […]
In these times of trial and tribulation, we could all use a little lovin’— and a new service backed by Senior Week hopes to fulfill your long-overdue fantasies of commitment-less sexual encounters via the Internet! CUScramble allows anyone with a UNI (not just class of 2013!) to submit up to 13 UNIs of Columbians they always wanted […]
Next in the never-ending stream of Senior Wisdoms: Natalie Robehmed, a former WBAR staff member who eats beer for dinner and loves a red lighthouse. Name, Hometown, School: Natalie Robehmed, Dubai, U.A.E., Columbia College (not “the” college.) Claim to fame? WBAR DJ/staff member emeritus; New Poetry person; loud laugher. Where are you going? Joining the […]
Bwoglines: ARRESTED DEVELOPMENT FROZEN BANANA STAND IN REAL LIFE. Today, from 11 am- 6 pm, across from radio city music hall. Some of the cast may make an appearance. Drop everything you are doing and go. And don’t forget to leave a note. (Gothamist) Finals tip: tip about finals. Procrastinate: so meta. (Wikipedia) Last night’s primal scream. (Youtube) […]
Tonight’s second Senior Wisdom: Michael, who’s heading back to the woods, and remembers a very very important Columbia graduation requirement involving the stacks. Name, Hometown, School: Michael, Wayland, MA, CC Claim to fame? When the weather’s nice I like to sit on the steps at night and play music. Sometimes people stop and listen, which […]
After a week of campus imploding in nearly every way possible (still waiting on a legitimate protest of anything, though) in the midst of finals, Bwog thinks we all need a moment to give into that tingly feeling in the pit of your stomach, lean your head back, and just scream. That’s right, tonight is […]
