Professor Wisdom, Gloom, and Harry Potter Fandom

By Bwog Staff on Feb 17, 2011 14 Comments

Dear Professors, We hear you. Sometimes we under-hear you (read: 9 a.m. class), but when we’re very lucky, we overhear you! And not just while you’re weighing in on important international issues; we also hear those cavalier comments you improvise in lecture. And since we like what we’ve heard lately so much, we thought we’d share: Shamus […]

Everybody Calm Down!

By Bwog Staff on Feb 17, 2011 0 Comments

In light of today’s beautiful weather, we would like to think that our hot-chocolate-to-warm-our-hands days are over for now. However, we do not protest free food/drinks. Right now, the Business School’s behavioral research lab is attempting to woo new participants by giving away free hot chocolate. They’re located right next to the lion statue outside […]

By Bwog Staff on Feb 17, 2011 7 Comments

By Bwog Staff on Feb 17, 2011 3 Comments

Apparently, it’s supposed to be 50 degrees or warmer today! This is weird, but we’re not going to question it. Instead, we’re probably going to stop by the Greenmarket, and you should too. Today’s offerings include: A new product—Berkshire pork. Greenmarket-ers inform us that “It’s a heritage breed of pork,” and has been “genetically unmodified […]

Foner Gets Phallic

By Bwog Staff on Feb 17, 2011 0 Comments

There’s nothing Bwog loves more than to wake up to a boner joke. Aren’t you glad we said “joke” at the end of that? Anyway, Columbia’s very own superstar Professor Eric Foner stopped by The Colbert Report again (!) to discuss his new book “The Fiery Trial.” But before he even began to share his […]
