Bwog’s correspondent Renée Kraiem reports on the first SGA meeting of the semester. The Rep Council reunited last night at 8:10 to discover that a significant proportion of the group had either grown or cut their bangs. Then, the group got down to business. Turns out that SGA is redecorating—and I’m not talking about the bangs. […]
Remember when puppies came to Columbia? So does Bwog. Some of Columbia’s more unorthodox study break tactics—including the biannual Primal Scream and therapy dogs bringing furry comfort—were chronicled in a spot on various schools’ stress relief methods.

As we mentioned before, last night was CCSC’s kick-off 2012 event, “What’s Wrong, Columbia?” This morning, Kem Walker gave a more lyrical take of it. Now, Sarah Ngu and Maren Killackey bring some hard numbers to the table (which is good, because scientific truth is the only truth with any value). Sunday night’s townhall was the […]

A couple of people in butt pads threw around a ball last night and it was kind of a BD. As the Giants go into the Superbowl to face the Patriots in almost identical circumstances as the 2007 season, ESPN is calling it déjà blue. Is that similar to browning-out?
