By Bwog Staff on Aug 27, 2011 43 Comments

If you haven’t heard, there’s a hurricane approaching New York, and it has shut down MTA and postponed NSOP and Move-In. Since Bwog never strays from Morningside, we’ll be wandering sadly through the rain, keeping you updated on what the scene is in the neighborhood. If you have any observations, picture, quotes, or musings on […]

By Bwog Staff on Aug 27, 2011 2 Comments

Columbia scientists take no vacations! Defying conventional medical technology, one Columbia engineer has decided to build his way out of the HIV/AIDS pandemic in Africa. The mChip, now passing its fourth year of testing, aims to deliver the diagnostic capabilities of a full-fledged lab to patients on a hundred-dollar chip. In case that’s not impressive, […]

By Bwog Staff on Aug 26, 2011 4 Comments

If you planned on getting off campus tomorrow and enjoying the city one last time before Hurricane Irene sweeps through, be sure to make it back before noon! Governor Cuomo has ordered a complete shut down of MTA services starting at noon tomorrow. This means subways, buses, LIRR, and the Metro North will begin their […]

JJ will offer new items such as “sandwiches and sliders at the Pizza Station, and new specialty burger and sandwich options at the grill.” JJ’s Place will have expanded hours […]

By Bwog Staff on Aug 26, 2011 15 Comments

Inclement Weather Update #5 has just been released, and the whole city is abuzz! Here’s what Student Affairs has to say to a presumably rather confused Class of 2015 this morning: don’t bother coming to college until the hurricane ends.

A Look into the Policy and Planning Committee of the Faculty of Arts and Sciences

By Bwog Staff on Aug 25, 2011 3 Comments

Moody-Adams’ reasons for resigning probably surrounded decisions made by the Policy and Planning Committee (PPC) of the Faculty of Arts and Sciences (FAS). Executive Vice President Nicholas Dirks focused his reaction to the dean’s condemnation of FAS on defending the PPC and stressing that whatever Moody-Adams found objectionable has not been set in stone. We’re […]

Summer Reading: Is Your Degree Worth It?

By Bwog Staff on Aug 25, 2011 26 Comments

Oh, The Places You Come From And The Things You Do Here

By Bwog Staff on Aug 25, 2011 11 Comments

Raining on NSOP’s Parade: Convocation Canceled and COÖP Curtailed

By Bwog Staff on Aug 25, 2011 18 Comments

In case you weren’t aware, there’s a pretty big rainstorm that’s going to hit the northeast this weekend, just in time for NSOP. Bwog has been mystified by the Weather Channel the past few days (Seriously! 24 hours devoted just to weather! What is this madness) and really, the coming Hurricane Irene is no joke. […]
