Professor Archetypes: The Dress Sneakered TA

By Bwog Staff on Dec 17, 2010 8 Comments

Grad students spend a lot of time talking about binaries, which, if you think about it, is sort of fitting. Being in grad school is a kind of middle ground, and binaries are everywhere! Think about it: you’re not quite a student, but certainly not a professor; you want to be friendly to undergrads while […]

The Graveyard Shift: WKCR

By Bwog Staff on Dec 16, 2010 27 Comments

During finals, people stay up late and then talk a lot about how late they stayed up. But there are some people who stay up all night, every night—not just when they have a Sustainable Development paper due. In a three-part series we’re calling the Graveyard Shift, Bwog hangs out with people ’til dawn and […]

Lit Hum Limericks: There was once a final exam…

By Bwog Staff on Dec 16, 2010 16 Comments

…for which not even the gods could cram. Hark, freshpeople! Way back when, a few Bwoggers converted several thousands of pages of reading into limericks—the perfect size for you to memorize in between sips of Red Bull and Pepsi Max. Read on for anapests aplenty! Homer, The Iliad Achilles, the raging Achaean, Agamemnon’s war plans […]

Dead White Men Go Dancing: CC Selections in Song

By Bwog Staff on Dec 16, 2010 8 Comments

Sometimes Bwog procrastinates by reading Bwog. While digging through our archives, we found this gem of a playlist by 2006 CC prof Dermot Albert Ryan. Descartes, Meditations on First Philosophy The Police: “Spirits in the Material World” Locke, Second Treatise of Government The Beatles: “Mother Nature’s Son” Hebrew Bible, Ecclesiastes The Byrds: “Turn! Turn! Turn!” […]

Why I’m Scared of Midnight Breakfast

By Bwog Staff on Dec 16, 2010 66 Comments

Lily Icangelo satirically explains why horror, bemusement, and brunchfoods go hand in hand at Barnard’s traditional last-night-before-finals feast. Midnight Breakfast is as absolutely terrifying as it is incredibly awesome. Walking into a crowded gym of highly stressed out, type-A personality, sleep-deprived girls? So, SO scary. The nervous energy that fills LeFrak Gym during Midnight Breakfast […]

Professor Archetypes: The Superstar

By Bwog Staff on Dec 16, 2010 29 Comments

The Superstar is often late for class on account of just having flown in from Singapore/Zurich/LA. Nevertheless, s/he breezes in casually. S/he chills with presidents after all, it’s no big deal. While the Superstar may be calm (they have seats that recline to become beds in business class), their brilliant TAs (who actually read what […]

The World Still Turns While You’re Stuck in a Finals Frenzy

By Bwog Staff on Dec 16, 2010 19 Comments

Former Bwog energy explorer, Armin Rosen, and The Curent‘s Editor Emeritus, Jordan Hirsch, report for the New Republic on Columbia’s new Center for Palestine Studies. “Unaccompanied by a dedication to real expertise,” the pair writes, “the CPS will be little more than a clique of like-minded academics whose defining commonality is a hostility toward Israel.” […]

Orgo Night: This One Was Too Easy

By Bwog Staff on Dec 16, 2010 55 Comments

Tonight was Orgo Night, that (rare) cherished Columbia tradition, in which The Cleverest Band in the World occupies Butler 209 and strives to “lower the curve on the orgo exam” by telling raunchy jokes with topical music interspersed. Likely due to a number of recent events, 209 was buzzing by 11:10 p.m. By 11:20 Public […]

Orgo Night Has Begun!

By Bwog Staff on Dec 16, 2010 44 Comments

In the wise words of Jody Zellman: “bummer, bro.” We also hear that there are Public Safety officers directing traffic at Midnight Breakfast. Expect a review within a few minutes. E-Z on those butt-comments, we took the original picture down at the request of the, um, involved parties.

Tonight! Orgo Night! Midnight Breakfast! Don’t! Study! Orgo Night will take place, as always, at midnight in Butler 209. Get there early if you want to see anything. Midnight Breakfast is Candyland themed this year– Barnard freshpeople can get to LeFrak at 11 PM, Barnard everyone can get there at 11:30, and everyone else is […]
