While the Superstar may be calm (they have seats that recline to become beds in business class), their brilliant TAs (who actually read what […]

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 […]

By Bwog Staff on Dec 15, 2010 8 Comments

With pre-Kerouac horn-rimmed glasses and a penchant for using Yiddish terminology in lecture, the Tweedster is both your favorite professor of all time and your grandfather’s Long Beach High Class of ‘48 classmate.
