With a smaller audience than they’ve seen this semester, SGA’s Rep Council met last night in the Diana Center Café for a meeting that was short and pretty sweet. Renée Kraiem’s report in honor of yesterday night’s brevity, is also pretty short. To everybody who meant to apply for one of the open positions on […]

On college walk: Guy: You know what I like about this campus? Everything looks like it’s under an Instagram filter. Girl: Is that how hipsters say something is beautiful now? The days when we compared scenery to a painting or movie are over. Fake vintage photography is where it’s at now.
In case you live under a rock (or maybe you haven’t talked to any British-obsessed people in the past 24 hours), Kate Middleton is pregnant. (E!) NASA is coming to the conclusion that the Solar System is larger than previously thought. The Voyager spacecraft should have left the Sun’s magnetic field a while ago, but […]

Matthew Renick, GS/JTS ’13 and former President of AEPi, was Chairman of the Greek Judicial Board—until today, when he resigned by email. “My decision,” he wrote, “is based in large part on my reaction to the Brownstone Application Committee’s decision.” He called Dean Martinez’s management of the committee “absurd and out-of-line,” and protests that the committee […]
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 […]
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. […]
Oh, the perks of living in New York City! An FX show called “The Americans” is filming on Amsterdam in front of the Italian Academy. If you’re in the area, be sure to take a gander.
