According to tipsters, AJ, one-seventh of the Korean boy band U-KISS, will be officially joining the Columbia student body this fall.  In fact, he “safely arrived at the Columbia University a few days ago” “and was busy to finish some works prior to the beginning of the semester!” We’re not sure which one is AJ (here’s a […]

Hawkma Rules the Playground

By Bwog Staff on Aug 14, 2012 4 Comments

When we last saw Hawkma, she was homemaking on JJ 10. Today a tipster spotted her surveying Morningside Park. As she soared from perch to perch a father pointed to the skies and shouted, “Look, son, there she goes!”

AHinks Responds to Barnard Housing Crisis

By Bwog Staff on Aug 13, 2012 14 Comments

Late last week, we learned that Barnard students returning from leave or transferring in will probably have to live off-campus, which could mean the loss of some financial aid and on-campus housing the year after. We reached out to Dean Hinkson to hear the Barnard administration’s side of the story. Upside: Barnard students might not be […]

Columbia Class of 3012

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 […]

Barnard has a severe housing shortage. On Wednesday, residents learned that Plimpton rooms which in the spring were singles will this fall be doubles. Today, a student forwarded us an email from Barnard Res Life explaining that Barnard students returning from leave, and possibly transfers as well, may not get on-campus housing at all—may be […]

It’s Fun to Stay at…

By Bwog Staff on Aug 10, 2012 40 Comments

The Y (which is very much not the YMCA). Plimpton residents, you could have it worse. Barnard really, really, lacks space. A tipster forwarded us this “email [that] students received who are returning from time off, and (possibly) all transfers also.” The email opens ominously: Thank you for applying for on-campus housing and for your […]

College Blog Starts Magazine

By Bwog Staff on Aug 10, 2012 2 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 […]
