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. Bwog daily editor Matt Schantz reviews the literature. Richard Heffner, host of PBS’s Open Mind, began an interview with former Dean Moody-Adams with a provocative quote form MiMoo […]

Oh, The Places You Come From And The Things You Do Here

By Bwog Staff on Aug 25, 2011 11 Comments

This morning, all of the COÖP students left for untamed nature outside the city. NSOP doesn’t start until Monday. But it’s not all bad news! Today is the move-in day for ISOP, the International Students (Pre-) Orientation Program. ISOP started last year as a pilot program meant to give international students a few extra days […]

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. Our shiny new friend has finally emerged from behind those temporary walls and fluttered its wings for the first time. The butterfly/bank, featuring updated […]

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 Though, the stock footage of campus appears to be outdated.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?

Worse Than A Hangover

To the lad that fellow ale-sipper-cum-tipster Amanda Gutterman spotted last night: That splitting pain in your head is actually from 1020’s massive front window that you plowed into.

By Bwog Staff on Aug 24, 2011 14 Comments

Michele Moody-Adams may have only been dean for a scant two years, but she has undoubtedly made her mark in Columbia history. Bwog’s Peter Sterne takes us through the short time she spent as Dean of Columbia College. When Michele Moody-Adams was first named as Columbia College’s new dean in February 2009, The New York […]

The newest freshpersons have arrived on campus! Look at them luxuriating in the shade of this Convocation tent and probably preparing to sing Roar, Lion, Roar and eat only hummus for four days. They head out to the woods tomorrow to make the best friends anyone on has ever had in the history of the […]

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. It potentially encompasses two stalwarts of undergraduate enthusiasm, environmental awareness and diversity (how many of you wrote your college essays about your grandparents, or other miscellaneous relatives?). And […]

The Behemoth of Columbia University

By Bwog Staff on Aug 23, 2011 23 Comments

Recent developments surrounding Moodygate have left all parties stunned and confused, but everyone can be certain of one thing: Columbia University is an organizationally complex machine, perhaps too much so. Investigations into the origins and circumstances of Moody-Adams’ resignation have revealed existing and historical rifts between deans, the Faculty of Arts and Sciences, and central […]
