The furor is apparently a backlash against a Wall Street Journal story that ran this morning, quoting Columbia prof Hamid Dabashi: “This whole […]

By Bwog Staff on Aug 30, 2011 11 Comments

Bwog’s freshest freshperson correspondent Marcus Levine reports from last night’s annual NSOP event. Relive the naive skepticism below. The Class of 2015 has not had a smooth ride into college.

Orientation Photobwogging: Day One

By Bwog Staff on Aug 29, 2011 32 Comments

The triumphant shouts of eager RA’s echoed around the quad. The sun shined blissfully and the skies were clear. Today was move-in day made in heaven. Irene left hundreds of cancelled flights, blocked roads, and disrupted trips in her wake, so only some freshpeople made it to move-in. The NSOP committee expects the stragglers arrive […]

Find Peace in the Zen Garden

By Bwog Staff on Aug 29, 2011 7 Comments

The powers that be have bulldozed the thicket between Hamilton and John Jay and replaced it with this sandy, serene seating area.
