By Bwog Staff on Aug 13, 2012 8 Comments

Tipster Ron G. sends us these screenshots from the latest episode of Futurama. The school has everything from iconic gates… …to red-brick, neoclassical buildings and the Van Am tholos … …to cheap tuition. But Columbia(c) is not the first university to be featured on Futurama. A few weeks ago, an episode set in the sewers […]

Overheard: Authentic French Dining

By Bwog Staff on Aug 12, 2012 23 Comments

At Le Monde’s bar, a portly man—apparently a manager of sorts—blowing haute air with two old, midwestern friends who were visiting the city. They ask him about working so close to Columbia, with the students and all. Yeah, but we keep it too expensive for the kids. Mostly professors and faculty in here. They agree: That […]

It’s Fun to Stay at…

By Bwog Staff on Aug 10, 2012 40 Comments

Personally, we think it’s better when college magazines start blogs. But you know those NYU kids. From the Observer: NYU Young Media War Rages On: The young folk of NYU Local—the pirate NYU news publication/blog, as opposed to the officially-mandated NYU publication, Washington Square News—is going to wage further war on its rival by putting […]

The Downtown Express

By Bwog Staff on Aug 08, 2012 10 Comments

Two, twenty-something co-workers—a plain, yet handsome, white man, and an Asian woman with good enough English—unexpectedly meet as they board at 96th street. They talk. On the train, as is the case with most train cars at 7:45 am, silent contemplation of the impending work day, one’s success in life, or unmet hopes and dreams […]

Matthew Parker has a story and he knows how to tell it. He first tried pot at age 13 when he was living in Bridgeport, CT; soon after, he began to help his mom deal out of their house. He spent the next 27 years in and out of jail, using harder and harder drugs—eventually, […]

What happens when you’ve graduated from the Columbia theater scene and can no longer book space in Lerner to put on plays?
