Your NSOP 2011 Theme is “Taking Root, Branching Out”

By Bwog Staff on Aug 24, 2011 13 Comments

Take heed, 2015ers! “Taking Root, Branching Out” is this year’s NSOP vanilla, and will likely affect what goes on the t-shirts. It’s a clever choice of theme.

By Bwog Staff on Aug 23, 2011 27 Comments

Bwog just recieved the following e-mail, sent by Executive Vice President for Arts and Sciences and Dean of the Faculty Nick Dirks. The e-mail is essentially a complete refutation of every concern that Moody-Adams expressed in her e-mail.
