SantaCon 2011, the perhaps purposeless assembly of Santa impersonators, was yesterday. Merriment ensued. (Daily Mail) Another Republican Primary debate was held last night, during which Mitt Romney connected with the common man as he casually bet $10 grand with Rick Perry. Our Men’s Basketball team beat Long Island yesterday 63-53. Columbia improved to 7-4 on […]
The other day, Barnard’s Dean of Studies sent out what seemed like a typical administrative email about academic procedures: finals, incompletes, grades etc. But we were kinda… put off by the last part. Emphasis and italics by us: “I wish it were different, but many of you seem to feel great pressure about grades (really? […]
We’ve already shown you feminist Democrats, pizza-loving student council members, and adventurous Harry Potter fans. This week, Bwog visits a Powersuite full of artists and performers who also love to bake. From Suite 4C in 600, Mahima Chablani and Raphaelle Debenedetti report on these multi-talented ladies’ homemade treats and weekly cleaning parties. There is always […]
Remember when Yo Momma jokes were cool? Neither do we. Remember when Fes from That ’70s Show even had an MTV show dedicated to solely Yo Mamma battles? Neither do we. Okay, maybe we watched it once or twice, but still, it looks like a few Columbians can’t grasp the fact that talking about moms […]

Including a few old faves, consider: Garb: Snoods Gloves that your grandmother knit so you can use your smartphone Sweaters with elbow patches […]
With the trees lit, phase two of holiday-zation has begun. Initiate cookie sequence. Matt Powell of Cooking With Bwog is here with a triple whammy of festive treats that will make you and anyone you decide to share them with jolly. Coming from California, I associate the holidays with about 60 degree weather. Even though […]
Columbia’s theatre community is on fire this semester. With everything from songs of Autumn to the Prince of Denmark, stages have been lit up again and again. This week, Bwog’s favorite zombie aficionado Kem Walker stopped by Lerner 5 for an undead surprise: The premise of “Zombie Prom,”— essentially a satire of ‘50s teen romance, isn’t one […]
You know those days when you wake up after a solid 8 hours feeling like P. Diddy (or Diddy or Diddy Dirty Money)? But then your hopes for the day are thwarted when you look in the mirror expecting to see Venus, and all you get are the craters of Mars? We all know at […]
It’s that time of the year again. We whip out our handkerchiefs, and pen some prose in honor of the changing Managing Board of the Columbia Daily Spectator. Congratulations to departing Editor Sam Roth, Managing Editor Michele Cleary, and Publisher Aditya Mukerjee, and a hearty welcome to the new fearless leaders. Pinkberry all round! Editor in Chief: […]
Columbia computer science professor Julia Hirschberg has created a computer program that analyzes human speech and detects lies with a 70% success rate. (NYTimes) An off-duty cop shot and arrested a mysterious man at the 125 St. subway stop who was groping girls waiting at the station. (Gothamist) A U.S. spy drone crashed in Iran on […]
He already made it rain, now, in anticipation to get Hardcore, he’s going to make it pour. Tonight at 9pm Pat Blute invites you to join him at the Village Pourhouse (located on Amsterdam between 108th and 109th) where he will be getting his drink on and filming his version of Katy Perry’s jam Last Friday Night for […]
