Christopher Julius Rock III, that is. Numerous tipsters have told us that the comedian was filming a movie at Columbia. The movie, Finally Famous, also stars Kevin Hart and Rosario Dawson, but we haven’t seen either of them on campus yet.
Much like your peers, you may have taken a well-deserved, month-long, post-finals nap. Perhaps you’re feeling disconnected from the Columbia community as of late. Luckily, Bwog doesn’t sleep very much. Broadway Lobby gets a grassy makeover for Summer! The sports season may be over for the Columbia Lions, but Lions Basketball star Brian Barbour and […]
The storefront formerly occupied by P&W Sandwich Shop—which closed in December 2011 on account of “lease termination”—has a new tenant. That would be Insomnia Cookies, a business which delivers cookies to your dorm until 3 a.m. and can evidently afford the new lease. So, Bwog views this development with mixed feels.

SIPA students, faculty, and staff are receiving sad news tonight: Mustafa Bicer, who just finished his first year at SIPA, has passed away. An impressive MIA student full of promise, he came from SIPA after working in the Directorate General of Exports in the Ministry of Economy of Turkey, his home country. We extend our […]
Yesterday, the Supreme Court sort of upheld race-based affirmative action. In the case of Fisher v. Texas, in which a white girl named Abigail Fisher sued the University of Texas for not admitting her and practicing race-based affirmative action, a lower court ruled in favor of the University.

Bwog is checking out for summer (unless something marvelously big happens that we simply must tell you about) as it is officially June, but first we’d like to give you a round-up of what’s been going on in the CU world these last two weeks. It has definitely been a memorable semester and we hope you […]
Now we have one final Senior Wisdom to close out the Class of 2013. We love you all and wish you all best! Name, Hometown, School: kapwatt. As true as it is that I was born and raised in Queens, I can’t deny that I’m an NJ’er at heart. If browntown were a real word, it […]

However, throughout my time at Columbia, at some point or another, I have been called Malik Newton, Xavier Lee, Brother CUSH, or some combination of these names, usually began with the honorific, Brother. South Central Los […]
Ladies and gentlemen, your CCSC President. Name, Hometown, School: Karishma Habbu, Atlanta, GA, Columbia College Claim to fame? Oddly the most visible thing I did as Columbia College Student Council President was harass you with a weekly email called Lion Bytes (Secret: those things took me 3 hrs each so I’m as glad as you are that […]
And now we bring you one of Bwog’s favorite people at this entire school in his reveal as the voice behind @Butler_209, who got us through many an all-nighter–not to mention his work on Carman Forever and Ni**as in Ferris. Name, Hometown, School: Jasper L. Clyatt, Rye, NY, CC Claim to fame? I photograph a […]
