Bwoglines: The Future is Now Edition

By Bwog Staff on Oct 05, 2011 6 Comments

Columbia’s Professor Stiglitz, who’s been making the rounds recently, published a commentary on the economic recession in Slate and, well, the headline says it all.

It’s a shame the name is destined to be the […]

By Bwog Staff on Oct 04, 2011 5 Comments

The cash supports Jewish Studies collections and funds a new Jewish Studies librarian position, filled by Michelle Chesner. Bwog initially thought that the new Jewish Studies library would be in Butler lobby, but that […]

Green Means Go, 2 Means Sprint

The powers that be have installed new pedestrian crossing signals along Broadway. Who knows if these have any safety benefits, but they add a sort of “missile launch” chic to the neighborhood.

An Iridescent Worm Wanders Through the Ruggles Windows

By Bwog Staff on Oct 04, 2011 5 Comments

A Ruggles resident, also responsible for last year’s inflatable tube man meets party streamer french fries, created another art installation. It kind of reminds us of an an iridescent worm or a rogue shower curtain. Maybe a wisp of pensieve escaping as our beloved dorm dies, while its windows trap its noble spirit to linger […]

Is Your JJ Single Looking Sparse?

By Bwog Staff on Oct 04, 2011 1 Comments

And you just don’t have that creative spark to turn nothing into something? No biggie. Stop by the flea market currently taking place on Low Steps.
