Class Act: 1,600 Kazoos

By Bwog Staff on Aug 31, 2010 8 Comments

For CC ’14er Gabby Beans, last night’s Class Act was a welcome opportunity to, as the 75-page NSOP manual put it, “sit back, relax, and enjoy.” But she found that difficult to do with a thousand little kazoos buzzing in her ears, and the sounds of Michael Bublé inexplicably wafting over the freshpeople-packed room. Her […]

Dear Bwog: Naked People Edition

By Bwog Staff on Aug 30, 2010 27 Comments

Dear Bwog, Is it acceptable to hang my super hot poster of Jenna Haze’s ass crack on my wall? ~Bro Dear Bro, Please, no naked chicks.

New Friends!

Orientation has begun! A few highlights from the morning: An OL helping a freshman move pulled a taxidermied rodent out of the trunk of a car.
