Goldean Takes The Gold

By Bwog Staff on Jul 15, 2012 17 Comments

We asked, and you answered—with a 90s reference, of course. With 46% of the total votes, Goldean is the official new nickname for interim Dean Goldfarb, to be used henceforth in all Bwog posts and relevant legalese*. No word yet on whether Goldean will embrace his new name, but we’re like 90% sure this makes PrezBo Ash […]

Royal Pains on Campus

By Bwog Staff on Jul 13, 2012 6 Comments

Fans of middling summer television will be whelmed to see episodes of Royal Pains being filmed right outside of Carman Hall. The show, which typically does not film in New York City, follows a concierge medicine business in the Hamptons (episodes air on USA, on Wednesdays at 9 pm; can we have our money now?). Overheard off […]

By Bwog Staff on Jul 13, 2012 28 Comments

Anonymous email sent in last night which recounts a critical moment in the Columbian life-cycle: At approximately 5pm EST, a shot was fired. “Housing?!” posted one eager student in the Columbia – Class of 2016 Facebook grouper, sending over 1,000 students into a rush to get to LionMail first. No doubt, this would create traffic; […]

Proof That the Sun Revolves Around Manhattan

By Bwog Staff on Jul 11, 2012 8 Comments

In a combination of astronomy and municipal history, the “Manhattanhenge” phenomena, “discovered” by Columbia’s own Neil DeGrasse Tyson, occurs today and tomorrow (July 11 and 12) at sunset. For more information about the science involved, Scientific American’s blog has some interesting background (and a tool to determine”-henge” moments in other cities), and Wikipedia has a nifty […]

Sherry on the Rocks

As debate continues over whether or not Sheherezade “Sherry” Jaafari, former press aide to Bashar al-Assad, should have been granted admission to SIPA, some of our own weigh in.

Because Science Is Never Conclusive!

By Bwog Staff on Jul 04, 2012 7 Comments

While we in America celebrate the signing of some yellowed document, physicists around the globe are engaging in a less nationalistic, but equally historic celebration: the elusive Higgs Boson, the “missing piece” in our current understanding of the subatomic world, has been confirmed to five standard deviations of significance. This discovery was made using the […]
