On the aural menu today is Tall, Tall Trees, a Brooklyn band that self-describes as having “evolved from a quirky bluegrass […]

EC High Rise residents got a slap on the wrist today concerning some questionable activities, the specifics of which Bwog can only speculate about. Wrote an RA the AD: It has been brought to my attention that there are items “being thrown on a regular basis, during daytime hours, from an East Campus high rise window(s) […]
Political correspondent Maren Killackey returns from the slightly sparse field of the Satow Room to report on the latest CCSC meeting. The Satow room at 8 pm last Sunday was noticeably empty, with a number of CCSC members (newly elected and not) mysteriously absent, including the entire Class of 2014 Council. There weren’t even enough […]

Clearly, someone has some Mad Men episodes to catch up on. Start a scavenger hunt through campus to find the Golden Green Ticket! No guarantees that it’s still […]

At 6:45 pm, the chosen ones will will the Rotunda—just remember your CUID. The doors will open to the public […]
Architectural aficionado Alexandra Eynon ventures through that weird little stairway into that weird—nay, that AMAZING—little space known to the masses as the Carman Mezzanine. What otherworldly mysteries lay within? Only time—and this floorhop—will tell. The Carman mezzanine is an architectural anomaly, consisting of a pair of suites tucked snugly next to the elevator shaft. What […]
Functional formalist Renee Kraeim reports from last night’s SGA meeting. Last night SGA welcomed our very own VP Beltrone, the VP of Campus Services. Basically, she’s in charge of what goes on on campus: special events, public safety, your mail…and, apparently, also in charge of what will happen on campus. Though Beltrone is new to […]
