THE SYSTEM, IS DOWN

By Bwog Staff on Oct 09, 2012 9 Comments

UPDATE: Wi-Fi seems to be working in Butler now. Confirmed in Butler Cafe. Rumor has it that all of NINJA printing is down. Tweets suggest that printers are down in the Diana and Barnard Library. The campus network definitely isn’t working in Butler, and hasn’t been for over an hour; hearsay is that it’s been out […]

Bwoglines: YOLO edition

By Bwog Staff on Oct 09, 2012 1 Comments

The Yellowist movement has taken a Tate Modern canvas victim—Vladimir Umanets, one of its representatives, has vandalized a 1958 painting by Mark Rothko. He claims his signature adds value to the piece. (CBCNews) Huawei and ZTE, two of the biggest Chinese telecommunications companies, have been classified as national threats by a congressional committee. The House Intelligence […]

Why Are We Excluded from CAFA?

By Bwog Staff on Oct 08, 2012 23 Comments

CAFA, the Committee on Admissions and Financial Aid that governs CC/SEAS, has been made anew. It used to be under the Dean, but now it’s under the Provost. It used to have student reps, but now instead has professional school reps. There should be student reps on CAFA. Please make that happen, “student leaders.” Not […]

The Other Milano

By Bwog Staff on Oct 08, 2012 6 Comments

When Bwog found out there was another Milano Market in the city, we dropped everything (read: skipped our pass/fail class) to launch a full-blown investigation. In case you ever get excommunicated from the Upper West Side location for stepping on the cat’s tail or decide to transfer to Hunter College, here’s everything you need to […]

CCSC: Because Everyone Deserves a “Better Bathroom Experience”

By Bwog Staff on Oct 08, 2012 1 Comments

Given last week’s break, Sunday night’s meeting was surprisingly brief, most of the agenda given over to updates and introductions with one resolution passed mandatorizing post-event evaluation surveys or PEES… kidding, they’re called PERFs, Post-Event Review Forms. But yes, PEES would have been so much better. Updates: Class of 2014 is working on implementing their […]

Overseen: An Early Sunday Nap…

…Or a late Saturday night crash? Yesterday, a freshman tipster found this well-camouflaged sleeper dozing in the warm, soap scented humidity of Carman’s laundry room.

B@B is Back

By Bwog Staff on Oct 08, 2012 15 Comments

Once the backwater of Columbia’s depressive, sex-deprived Internet underbelly, BoredatButler lingered, neglected or scorned by most students, until it was mothballed a few years ago. Other Ivies embraced the hyper-anonymous format—Dartmouth has BoredatBaker (part of the once-great boredat empire), and Cornell has Ezrahub (which broke the Pornell story)—, while Columbia was torn asunder by a dozen […]

A Rumi (But Not Roomy) Night of Poetry

By Bwog Staff on Oct 08, 2012 1 Comments

Bwog’s Persian Poetry Aficionado, Sarah Thompson, braved crowds of poetry lovers on Friday to attend the Rumi Night of Poetry. Organized by the Columbia Iranian Students Association, the night was filled with music and the works of Rumi, recited and sung in both English and Persian. I was one of the lucky ones who snagged […]

From the Archives: And Now A Word from The New York Post

By Bwog Staff on Oct 08, 2012 21 Comments

Today is Columbus Day! Two years ago, New York Post columnist Andrea Peyser criticized Columbia for holding classes on Columbus Day, which prompted Jim Downie, Bwog’s editor at the time (and now op-ed web editor for the Washington Post), to pen a brilliant critique of the NYPost column. For your edification: As the coda to today’s […]

Bwoglines: Having Class on Columbus Day Edition

By Bwog Staff on Oct 08, 2012 2 Comments

Happy Columbus Day, Columbians! This is what it feels like to go to the only school where there’s not a long weekend. Ugh. (Time and Date) In Venezuela, Hugo Chavez was re-elected as president by a narrow margin. (CNN) For the record, we here at Bwog would be super okay with Adele showing up out of the blue, […]
