Journalist and researcher Evgeny Morozov may not share Gladwell’s beloved frizzy halo of hair, but they both recognize a dark side of internet activism.

The Columbia location of Joe will be having a free “cupping” event today at 3 pm.

By Bwog Staff on Jan 27, 2011 0 Comments

PoliticalLine: Our very own Jeffrey Sachs (director of Columbia’s Earth Institute) did not approve of Obama’s State of the Union Address. Media caught up with him on a bus from Zurich to Davos.
