High-Fives for Elyse Pitock, BC ’15

By Bwog Staff on Dec 03, 2012 10 Comments

As December 21st creeps ever closer, there’s a lot to worry about—should I stock up on water or tequila? In the event of zombies, should I invest in a chainsaw? Should I start taking notes when I watch “Doomsday Preppers?” While Bwog sits and counts its anxieties on its fingers, Elyse Pitock, BC ’15, went […]

Deantini’s Brain-Buster

By Bwog Staff on Dec 03, 2012 42 Comments

During the tree-lighting ceremony last Thursday on College Walk, our darn-diddley Dean added to the College’s finals-burden by announcing a little extra-curricular pop quiz. Though the quiz is merely a pesky distraction for our more SEAS-minded peers, Bwog is skittish (and uncomfortably reminded of consulting interviews). The Dean, however, says it’s something technical yet accessible. […]

OKC Thunder Practicing in Levien Gym

By Bwog Staff on Dec 03, 2012 13 Comments

Levien Gym is officially “on lockdown” as the OKC Thunder prep for tomorrow’s game against the Brooklyn Nets. Bwog couldn’t catch a glimpse of Kevin Durant (though his presence was confirmed by one, very confident bro), but 2003 NCAA NPOY, First Team All-American, and Kansas’s second all-time leading scorer, Nick Collison, was confirmed in attendance via blurry […]

Bwog Asked, “What Would You Rather Be Doing?”

By Bwog Staff on Dec 02, 2012 21 Comments

Last week, Bwog asked Sunday night Butler residents if they were happy. This week, we wondered what they would rather be doing. Here are your replies: Guy in polo: “Hanging out with friends.” Girl with cool scarf and really white teeth: “Raging on a beach at a party.” Girl with warm fuzzy jacket: “I’d be […]

How the Other Half Lives

By Bwog Staff on Dec 02, 2012 36 Comments

At Bwog, we know that not all Columbia students are the same. And we know that most people’s classroom experiences are not the same. What we wanted to find out was just how different they can be. So, in a form of cruel experimentation, we sent an English major to an engineering lecture, and an […]

Bwog Sports Sunday: Win More Indoors

By Bwog Staff on Dec 02, 2012 0 Comments

Even as the impending doom of finals approaches, the Lions remain in action and thankfully move indoors for the winter sports season. Unfortunately, it was a better weekend for individual performances than team results, especially in basketball. In a sold-out Levien Gymnasium, Men’s B-Ball let a 17-point lead slip away against Bucknell, even as senior […]
