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 […]

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

Whether thoughts of the coming year bring joy or fear, recent months’ debate over the value of higher education should give you good reason to have second thoughts.

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. […]

Like a fuzzy caterpillar wrapping itself into a cocoon, Lerner’s Citibank outpost asked us to pardon its appearance for a few weeks this summer while it was busy becoming a butterfly.

Columbia Drug Ring Has Cable TV Premiere

By Bwog Staff on Aug 25, 2011 7 Comments

With a plot ripped from the headlines, Monday’s episode of Weeds brought the hunky Hunter Parrish up to our Morningside Heights campus to confront the leader of a fictionalized Columbia drug ring. Though, the stock footage of campus appears to be outdated. Does anyone remember when exactly we had recycling bins like that?
