BoardHops: What Madness Is This?

By Bwog Staff on Dec 11, 2012 0 Comments

As classes end and real studying begins, it is easy to get stuck in your head. Especially when you’ve been doing readings all day. Seemingly innocuous boards turn into something much more significant as the layers of meaning come to life and confound through what you learned in Psych 101. After all: Life is the same. […]

RoomHop: The Land Before WiFi

By Bwog Staff on Dec 11, 2012 20 Comments

Sparsely decorated and warmly lit with incandescent bulbs he installed himself, JG’s Woodbridge room is nice enough to look at. But it’s not what’s in the room that caught Bwog’s attention; it’s what’s notably absent—namely, the Internet. Unlike the rest of Columbia’s Gmail-addicted, Twitter-happy student population, JG, CC ’14, prefers to minimize his use of […]

A Great, Late Nite

By Bwog Staff on Dec 11, 2012 6 Comments

Alex Jones was there, and now shares his late night Latenite experience. Latenite rarely fails to deliver a raunchy, relevant, expletive-filled wham-bam of a show, and this fall’s anthology was perhaps the best in four years. I’ve always been a fan of Latenite, and so I decided this time to get the full Latenite experience: […]

Getting The Hell Out Of Butler: Cafe Reviews

By Bwog Staff on Dec 11, 2012 9 Comments

Columbia has a wealth of libraries, abandoned classrooms, dorm rooms, and various corners in which to study for finals. But after the 5th day in a row wandering around Butler for 45 minutes trying to find a seat, even the most impressive library can get a little dull. Sometimes you need to practice your liberal-arts-hipster-cafe-typing […]

Closing Remarks: Presidents, Sex, and Course Eval Ambivalence

By Bwog Staff on Dec 11, 2012 3 Comments

The official last day of classes was yesterday–despite the 5 make-up classes you’re taking this week because of Hurricane Sandy. Take a deep breath and read the words of professors’ end-of-year nostalgia exasperation. Herbert Sloan, Survey of American Civilization to the Civil War: “Unfortunately, the president during all of this is James Buchanan, who has […]

XMAS!7 APOCACHRISTMAS: Yeah, They Did All Die

By Bwog Staff on Dec 11, 2012 15 Comments

XMAS!7 was performed only one night—Monday, December 10th at 8 PM and at 10:30 PM. Kris Kringle-Crazed Mollie Krent reviews. Student directed, produced, choreographed, composed, and, most impressively, written, this show brought it. For those of you that failed to leave the dregs of Butler 209—first of all shame on you, I bet you were […]
