Remember Betty Friedan, the original independent woman, from AP US History? Well it’s been almost 50 years since her manifesto, The Feminine Mystique, was published and changed (or didn’t change?) gender equality forever. (New York Times) Beyoncé’s documentary aired on HBO last night, and we learned some things about Queen B—namely that she’s still perf. (The […]
Valentine’s Day is over, but there’s still a shot at love. Tonight’s personal profiles reject cuddling and believe in common human decency, respectively: meet Sam Schipani and Matt Martinez. Your one-email stop to love, as always, is personals@bwog.com. Name, Year, School, Major: Sam Schipani, CC’15, Sustainable Development Preference: Girl for Guy Hometown: The cultural mecca […]
Oscar-winning actor Forest Whitaker claims that he was accused of shoplifting at Milano’s Deli and then stopped and frisked by an employee!

They were out in the cold protesting an event being held on campus titled “Family in Modern Society.” It includes such riveting talks as “What is Marriage? Man and Woman: A Defense” and “Everything is […]
Overheard a few nights ago on the way to Pupin: “Ya, my pupils get all weird and change sizes. It’s like my ‘tell.'” (A tell for what? Imagine playing poker with this person…) Overheard at Ferris: “You went to sleep and woke up naturally at 7? You know what that’s called? Cocaine.” (We wonder if there is […]
Headlocks: Congress has defied everyone’s judgments and actually come together on an issue for once. No, not Hagel’s appointment. I’m talking about the good, old fashioned sport we all know and love – wrastlin’! (CNN) Hitler: A large number of paintings that had been stolen from fleeing Jews during WWII are being returned to their rightful owners […]
Valentine’s Day may have passed, but love is still a thing. Tonight’s single guys have written each other’s personals rather than their own (awww), so the third-person answers are not signs of mental instability.
