Well, the wait is over; Bwog has a new arts editor, Alexander Katz, and in addition to providing you with information on the best of Columbia’s art scene every Wednesday, Alex is pushing for Bwog to get real and preface every […]
If college is supposed to be a time to excel at new things, Trey Johnson and Sean Von Ohlen, CC’14, are doing it right. As self-taught DJs under the stage names Vidda and Vonzie, respectively, you may have found true love dancing to their beats at a frat or bar. Moombah mastah Alexandra Svokos watched them create […]
Before heading downtown to tell FoxNews that Columbia loves Hannity, Herman Cain spoke in Low last night at the invitation of the College Republicans.

EC High Rise residents got a slap on the wrist today concerning some questionable activities, the specifics of which Bwog can only speculate about.

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 […]
Reformer-in-disguise Brit Byrd brings back progress notes from yesterday’s lecture with SFER and TRACT. Last night TRACT and new kids on the block Students for Education Reform (SFER) hosted a discussion with David Hansen, Professor of Philosophy & Education at Teachers College, and Shamus Khan, Assistant Professor of Sociology, as the inaugural event of SFER’s […]
It’s almost time to start lining up for Herman Cain tonight—that is, unless you’re quick enough to snag this ticket on blatant display in room 616 (building unidentified). 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 […]
