Or at least on College Walk! Public Safety can’t take it all to the office so they’re handing it out for free while supplies last. Update: Apparently, Public Safety managed to reel it all into their office. No more water! Which is kind of a shame, considering it looks like some freshmen in JJ15 could […]
As we’re starting to feel the first chills of fall, it gets harder to live that “casually active” lifestyle you’ve been rocking all summer. This means dealing with the smells and interactions of our own Marcellus Hartley Dodge Fitness Center. To prepare you for your descent to Pupin’s not-so-seedy underbelly, Bwog has compiled an etiquette guide […]

Keep your eyes open for the September issue of The Blue & White, coming soon to campus. Until then, Bwog will honor our heritage/amorous affair with our mother magazine by posting highlights of the upcoming issue online. Among the treats to look forward to: a litany of bizarre and outdated freshman hazing rituals, a conversation with a luminary on DIY […]
Reflect on the lessons you learned in your Art Hum, Lit Hum, CC and Frontiers classes today. Everything is relevant! The logic in these Filipino women’s attempts to bring peace sounds all too familiar. (Gawker) Perhaps you might suggest a tour through Riverside Park’s underground Freight Train tunnel as a potential Art Hum field trip. […]
Bill O’Reilly can have his war on Christmas, but here at Columbia a long-smoldering war has been newly stoked —the war on smoking. For millennia, men, and then most recently women, had lounged inside the confines of Butler Library relaxedly puffing away towards a state of greater tasty tobacco-scented peacefulness and pseudo-philosophical coolness. First they kicked […]
Admit it. You’re a little jealous of those elusive few with summer transfer housing who now get to shack up in one of the frat-houses-cum-dormitories on 114th. Check out their new digs, sans sticky floors (we hope)—the former Psi U house, pictured below. Update: The building formerly known as Pike is available for your visual […]
With 600 votes and over 50% of the vote, Deantini is the winning nickname for Columbia College Dean Valentini! So that Deantini can uphold his end of the bargain, we request that winning commenter (this comment!!) contact us at editors@bwog.com. Will the real nicknamer please stand up? Relief via Examiner
Bucket List represents the unbelievable intellectual privilege we enjoy as Columbia students. We do our very best to bring to your attention important guest lecturers and special events on campus.

Update: Tipsters tell Bwog that there was a Federation of Black Cowboys parade in Harlem today. While Bwog can’t independently confirm that claim, it sure makes for a great story. Update 2: The Federation of Black Cowboys accidentally loosed one of their horses around 110th and Broadway. No one was hurt. All the pretty horses […]
