Things You Should Pretend You Already Knew

By Bwog Staff on Sep 05, 2010 27 Comments

Sometimes, fresh-people, in a seminar, or at a party, someone will reference something that used to exist and doesn’t anymore, and you will have to nod your head or laugh knowingly. Ah yes, Morningside is like, so gentrified, you will say. We asked alumni of The Blue and White and Bwog for places, events, and […]

Bwog will preview what’s new at the Greenmarket that week, what’s in season, what’s going out of season, any news that might aid your quest for good tomatoes. Today’s Market: Fall produce is arriving early because of […]

Residence Hall Etymology

By Bwog Staff on Sep 04, 2010 15 Comments

The Core, it has been said, is good for cocktail party chatter and not much else. You’ll be able to schmooze with people about Woolfe and iambic pentameter, yadda yadda. This post supplements the rather specific knowledge Columbia bestows on you (hey, no snark alert: we kind of love the Core) with some genuinely useless […]

Columbia Beats Harvard! And?

By Bwog Staff on Sep 04, 2010 9 Comments

The quick takeaway from James Piereson’s recent WSJ op-ed (excerpted from a longer piece in The New Criterion), “Where Columbia Beats Harvard”: our Core Curriculum is far superior to Harvard’s set of abstruse distribution requirements. So that’s neat! In fact, add to this upset CU’s recent jump up those knuckleheaded US News rankings, and Columbia […]

Wake Up And Learn Things With Bwog, Round 6

By Bwog Staff on Sep 04, 2010 5 Comments

Tomorrow, there will be no more advice. So relish it today. Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to get out of the Foreign Language requirement! Deans don’t like to enlighten frosh on how it can be done, but The Blue and White cornered one administrator and he spilled the beans. Apparently, to […]

Penis!

By Bwog Staff on Sep 03, 2010 11 Comments

Due to the change in the Navigating Health Services theme, Bwog was briefly under the alarming impression that consent was no longer sexy. To our great relief we confirmed today that consent is, in fact, sexy. Still. And… exhale! Proving that the Health Services team is an upbeat, if maybe not particularly creative bunch, today’s […]

Health Services Was Helpful Yesterday

By Bwog Staff on Sep 03, 2010 0 Comments

Upperclassmen, you’ve seen this one before. Peter Sterne, CC’14, writes from the Health Services Skit. NSOP is a strange time when normally impersonal and bureaucratic instruments of the administration try to humorously (and cornily) appeal to incoming, naïve freshmen. Every department does things differently: the Division of Student Affairs gives us Dean Shollenberger, who has […]

Batten Down the Hatches, Take a Nap

By Bwog Staff on Sep 03, 2010 6 Comments

Hurricane Earl is ready to spew some nasty moderate rain over Manhattan. Barnard Director of Public Safety Dianna Pennetti sent out a rather alarmist email to students this afternoon and here’s the takeaway: There’s a Tropical Storm Watch in effect for Manhattan this evening. So it might rain and be windy like Claremont Ave. in […]
