Update, 4/7/12: Looks like all that voting was for naught, as Columbia comedians and comediennes Bob, Eli, Katy, and Orli lost to NYU’s team. Or, at least Columbia’s stand-up comedy team thinks so. This week, they are competing in a virtual match-up against stand-up comedians from NYU. It’s North vs. South, Uptown vs. Downtown, Morningside […]
Bwog has obtained only scant reports about the goings-ons inside the ex-frat houses on 114th. The description of amenities below is from 546, and the pictures are from both 536 and 546. Location: 536, 542, and 546 W. 114th St. Nearby dorms: Ruggles, Carman, Broadway, Hogan and other brownstones/Greek houses. Stores and restaurants: As central as […]
I lost a light brown (cognac) women’s leather bomber jacket, which has a tag that says “Members Only” on the front. I most likely left it in Lerner Cafe. If found, please contact me at ace2120@columbia.edu or (516)385-0975. REWARD and eternal gratitude if returned!
It’s not every day that the New York Times titles an article about you: “A Promising Star, Rising Above the Horizon,” or that New York Magazine runs a feature on your life before you turn 18. But then again, Conrad Tao is not just any Columbia College student. For one, he is one of the […]
From the producers who brought you N*ggas in Ferris comes Hogan, a mature new track about growing up and moving out. As with all albums, the follow-up lacks the certain sparkle of the debut, but does reflect the artists’ emotional growth as they peer into the dark heart of the real world/suite selection. Full lyrics […]
In an email yesterday, Student Affairs sent out an email announcing the Senior Dinner, which is slated for April 30th at 8 pm, and the menu, which is strange. Wondering what a “cranberry gastrique” is, Bwog turned to resident foodie Matt Powell. The Fish Option: The fish option may be both the most substantial of […]
Life is about the Tiny Victories. And so is Live at Lerner. Today, from 12 to 1 pm, they host the Brooklyn band, which NPR has described as one of the most promising up-and-comers in the country. Even if you aren’t lured by the sound of “smart, catchy electro-pop hooks,” we can’t imagine you’ll say […]
…unless you’re in the B-school. For us plebeians, there is such thing as a free root beer float, and you can get one in front of Earl Hall starting at 11 a.m. today. The cream will be floated by The Office of the University Chaplain, Community Impact, the United Campus Ministries and The Kraft Center in participation with Random […]
Hey Juniors! (And mixed groups.) You’ve spent the past two days watching the seniors snatch up all the good housing, and now it’s your turn to have a go. Don’t forget, this year is different—if that Ruggles suite is gone by your appointment time, you can still give Junior Regroup a go before dropping to […]
In a bout of Core-inspired rhetoric perhaps informed by his CC days, President Obama accused Mitt Romney of “thinly veiled social Darwinism” yesterday. (The Guardian) Meanwhile, Rick Santorum continues to struggle for existence. (NYT) In a world with limited resources, it seems that the Canadian penny just won’t cut it. (ABC) You gotta be smart to survive. […]
Existence moves through the 4th dimension; C2H5OH through arteries and veins. These two phenomena coincide with regularity on the weekend, but rarely are there observers interested—and sober—enough to take note. Compelled by the urge to be a little more “quanty,” Bwog’s award winning team of (social) scientists decided to conduct field work at a nearby […]
Last Thursday Zach Kagan, master of the arts of ventriloquy, ventured down to Prentis Hall to review a very unusual and politically themed puppet show. Here’s what he took away from the experience. Great Small Works presents “Toy Theatre of Terror as Usual Episode 13: Whistles and Leaks.” It’s a hell of a title. Of course, the particular get-together that […]
