By Bwog Staff on Sep 07, 2010 29 Comments

Things are going to work a little different for on-campus dining this year. A round-up of the changes, straight from Housing & Dining, follows. Ferris Booth and JJ’s Place are now dining halls. This means they take meal swipes and operate in the same manner as John Jay Dining Hall did. But don’t worry, Ferris […]

Classroom Courtesy: A Primer

By Bwog Staff on Sep 07, 2010 3 Comments

It’s the first day of school, folks! Savor the crackling sound of creasing book binds and the strong scent of newly sharpened pencils. Freshpeople, Bwog can’t believe you kids are already starting classes. It was only last week you were loading taxidermy rodents into your blue bins. After a week- long orientation, get ready to […]

Call for Opening Remarks

By Bwog Staff on Sep 07, 2010 15 Comments

You know the drill, unless you were born in 1992. On the first day of classes, professors say sweet, funny, strange and wonderful things to try to keep you in their classes, and also because they are sweet, funny, strange and wonderful people sometimes.

Today is a hard day. Time for those rosy-colored (or Colt 45-colored glasses, perhaps) to come off. Classes begin tomorrow, and now you can only get drunk two or three nights a week.

By Bwog Staff on Sep 06, 2010 8 Comments

’14ers out there may have realized that Bwog can be a valuable source of information about Columbia. However, even seasoned Columbians may not know some of this carefully checked, entirely reliable trivial knowledge. Great for parents weekend, when you want to steer away from the topic of grades and significant others. Columbia has its own […]

A few points of note from today’s lovely Labor Day. Bwog spent $7 on a bagel and orange juice at Nussbaum this morning, and remembered how our money goes so quickly here. Dinner at Mel’s Burger Bar is 10% off tonight and tomorrow with a Columbia/Barnard ID. We also hear that Hewitt isn’t swiping IDs […]

The Bwogtionary: A Lexicon

Like Shakespeare and Sarah Palin, college students enjoy making up new words.

Where Morningside Is Actually a College Town

By Bwog Staff on Sep 06, 2010 6 Comments

Morningside Heights likes to pretend that it is a college town. In recent years, that has been an increasingly difficult image to maintain: there’s about a bank per block between 110th and 116th Streets, and many independently owned stores have closed in the last few years to make room for big chains like Chipotle and […]
