Kiss those tapas goodbye: Floridita owner Ramon Diaz loses his lawsuit, Manhattanville finally begins construction, and PrezBo celebrates (Spec). Remember what happened the last time Columbia tried to expand? Carle Hovde, CC ’50 and Dean of the College from 1968 to 1972, died last Saturday. Faculty mourns (Spec). As if the updated Kindle wasn’t bad […]
Good news, under-laid Columbians: the “sex positive” magazine C-Spot has announced that they’re expanding their sexcapades to other campuses. Now you can share your lust with your, er, friends from NYU. Or just read the current issue while your roommate is out. The gist: “I discovered that Robert’s foreskin acted as a fantastic penetration aide.” […]
After two years with an interim dean, PrezBo announced five months ago that SEAS has a new dean. Feni set up shop in Mudd this summer and to welcome him, ESC is hosting a picnic party on the plaza in front of Pupin from 4 to 6 this afternoon. This evening, when the indigestion from […]
Two pieces of good news came in over the official Bwog wire this afternoon. First, the first Mac Gray trucks have been spotted about campus after the Great Laundry Flex outage of 2009. Flex readers in laundry rooms all over campus have been out since just before the start of the semester, but as of […]
Bwog’s in the market for a daily editor or two for the new semester. The job: writing the various posts for your day, covering breaking news, and generally running the Bwog’s minute-to-minute operations. Perks include scaring administrators, advance free food knowledge, the chance to write witty headlines, and free extra emails. If that strikes your […]
The annual activities fair is now well underway on Low Plaza and the ruckus can be heard all over campus. This is your only chance to get on the mailing lists of groups you’ll never hear of again. Generosity is abound with free water bottles and free Dinosaur BBQ. The line is long so […]
Occasionally, Columbia professors break the monotony of Honesty Policy regurgitation to add a little spice to the first lecture of the semester. Here are this term’s quips: Xavier Sala-i-Martin, Intermediate Macroeconomics “Empirical evidence suggests that people die.” “There is one big difference between Microeconomics and Macroeconomics, and that is that Macroeconomics is useful.” “Let me […]
Bwog is still searching its Cabinet of Cleverness for a new name for the expanded morning news post. Share your ideas in the comments. Yesterday the Museum of the City of New York opened a new exhibit celebrating the city’s “ultimate movers and shakers” in the last 400 years. But where is PrezBo in the […]
Many undergrads will never have set foot in that peak of professor perks, the Faculty House. Under construction for the past year, the old space harbored cracked marble and un-airconditioned, dusty faux-Italian decor and no AC. But the new house is a sight to behold. Even if you don’t share our fascination with places you’re […]
Already tired of cooking in your nonexistent dorm kitchen? CCSC 2011 is hosting a welcome back-style dinner in Lerner Party Space tonight at 6:00 PM. The food will be from Indian Cafe on 108th and Broadway. CCSC 2011 President Learned Foote helpfully notes that the dinner will be “first come, first serve,” meaning that it’ll […]
A favorite start-of-semester tradition in Bwog-land is the release of the Heyman Center’s schedule for the upcoming semester. Some staffers get to pencil in talks and discussions they’ll later miss (thanks homework!), and some get to giggle yet again at “Heyman Center.” Because some of us are four years old, really. This year’s best bets […]
Journalists and hippies alike may rejoice on this, the opening day of the Journalism School cafe. Nothing but the combination of news tickers on the wall, various 1960’s references on the menu, and cheaper-than-in-Starbucks Starbucks coffee could bring so many happy lunchers here on opening day. After moving through a short, fast-moving line, Bwog was […]
