Overheard: N00bs Edition

By Bwog Staff on Mar 06, 2011 8 Comments

Outside the Law School, two female adolescents: “Wait, where’s NYU?” Overheard on campus, “uptown”: “I’m going downtown today, to 96th Street.” Two CPJ conference attendees standing by the gates spot Alan Brinkley leaving campus: “See that man there? He teaches here. That’s Alan Brinkley, the famous scientist.”

Bwoglines: Procrastination Edition

By Bwog Staff on Mar 06, 2011 1 Comments

Play ‘Sheen, Beck or Qaddafi?’.

Grammar Police, Assemble! (Updated With Response)

By Bwog Staff on Mar 05, 2011 38 Comments

As Bwog knows all too well, there’s nothing a Columbia student hates more than bad grammar.

Still, every now and then, even we can’t help but get caught up in all the sporting excitement. After Friday evening’s double-overtime men’s basketball game against Yale, Bwog daily editor Sameea Butt was inspired […]
