Freshpeople: Get There Early Tomorrow

By Bwog Staff on Aug 29, 2010 16 Comments

NSOP week will be hot! Waiting for 45 minutes for a John Jay elevator to take you, your mom and your mini-fridge to the 12th floor is going to be no fun anytime after noon tomorrow. And make sure you don’t get one of those awkward Convocation seats in the sun. See you bright and […]

Your New NSOP 2010 Theme: Absurdism

By Bwog Staff on Aug 29, 2010 27 Comments

The NSOP 2010 theme has, we hear, been altered. Instead of The Odyssey, our NSOP spies inform us that it’s…2001, uh, make that 2010: A Space Odyssey. Apparently, much distress was caused by Bwog’s call of CC-centrism. Despite the fact that the NSOP t-shirts and NSOP schedule books seem to be dominated by the theme […]

Oh, And Trojans

The Container Store is still open; return your stupid storage boxes today! If you’re anything like us, you’re spending hours researching and cross-referencing lists of things to take to school. Living in the storage closets that are Columbia dorms presents its own special challenges, however, so we’ve compiled a list of the things we Bwog […]

NSOP Gossip: Three Days Before NSOP Edition

By Bwog Staff on Aug 26, 2010 20 Comments

Christy Carlson Romano of Kim Possible fame is back at Barnard! She was spotted in the Reslife office today, and is here to finish her degree. Barnard deans have apparently forbidden Barnard OLs from high-fiving first-years as they walk through the Gates yelling and screaming on the first night of college. Columbia and Barnard OLs […]

Your NSOP 2010 Theme: The Odyssey

By Bwog Staff on Aug 26, 2010 39 Comments

NSOP schedules aren’t released till tomorrow, but Bwog’s been tipped that the 2010 Orientation theme is the Odyssey. You know, like the Core Curriculum, the cornerstone of your Columbia education unless you’re in Barnard or SEAS! We cry Columbia-College-centrism, just so you’ll stop accusing Bwog of it. We wait with bated breath for the activities […]

It Begins!

The Class of 2014 has begun to trickle in. Bwog extends a warm welcome to the COÖP fresh-people currently spending their first night at Columbia sleeping under the huge Convocation tent on South Lawn. Bwog found COÖP leaders and freshmen in a semi-circle on the lawn this evening, singing “Roar, Lion, Roar” together. One “fearless […]

Mel’s Burger Bar: Try It, You’ll Like It

By Bwog Staff on Aug 25, 2010 28 Comments

Morningside has food niches vacated and sort-of filled every few years. AmCaf, beloved steak sandwich locale in the early aughts, became a fancy tapas bar that no one you know eats at. The fabled West End became mediocre Havana Central, a shadow of its former Kerouac-hosting, drunk-makeout-and-beer-pong-haven self. You could get full and drunk for […]
