This just in, folks—recent incidents of alien activity around campus were not isolated events. Tipsters Candi Herschel CC ’14 and Maya Meredith CC ’14 alerted Bwog of the following phenomena:
It’s a small, handcrafted pewter heart that my mom gave me recently. I kept it the pocket of my jeans and I think I lost it 11/1/10 when doing wash, as I forgot to take it. I live in Schapiro so it might have been found in the laundry room there. It has a lot […]
HBO’s new movie Too Big To Fail is up on Broadway between 121st and 122nd. It’s based on Andrew Sorkin’s book of the same name. It’s got quite a cast, so go get starstruck! Photo by EJ
Two weeks ago, Ittai Orr finished a year and a half of work on a documentary about the lives of LGBTQ teenagers in his hometown of Tri-Cities, Washington. Bwog checked in with Ittai about making the film which is titled “Breaking the Silence.” Tell us why you decided to make the documentary, and how you […]
In case you haven’t checked your Cubmail (or still need to forward it), Housing Services has a new system in place. You’ve got to register if you’re planning on staying around for any part of the December 23, 2010 to January 12th, 2011 (!) window. It does not cost any (more) money, just time. Log […]
A beautiful butterfly is emerging from its cocoon before our eyes! The not-so-cleverly-conceived and evidently donor-deficient Northwest Corner Building’s entryway can now be seen behind a white picket fence stretching across the plaza—look, it’s suburbia! In the city! Photos by CCS
Nhon Ma CC ’04 has a startup, Tenka! Basically, it’s an app (that’s not really an app) for your phone which lets you get free stuff and sweet deals. Tenka and Korilla—also alumna-owned—have teamed up to give us three free tacos! This deal (steal?) lasts ten days, and is limited. Just as on previous days, […]
One of the greatest perks of an Ivy League education–right in NYC, no less–is having all sorts of guest lecturers and talks hosted right on campus. Yet many of these great talks are not publicized enough. Enter Bucket List, a weekly feature that aggregates these events in a single location that will hopefully make you […]
Give me Four Loko, or give me death! Or at least don’t ban it. (Spec) In case you haven’t heard yet, we have a Five Guys coming! Their burgers taste good. (DNAinfo) Peek into the lives of Jake and Marty La Salle CC ’07 under the big-top, on a new PBS series. (NYT) Democracy happened […]
… Anderson Cooper, Wrestling with his Sexuality! In addition, an honorable mention goes to Daniel Gutsche, CC’12, and Deaton Jones, CC’13, for their costumes as Achilles and Patroclus! The winners will be contacted regarding their prizes in short order. Bwog would like to thank everyone who submitted costumes and encourage everyone to participate next year!
The Heyman Center for the Humanities, a.k.a. the academic building oddly juxtaposed with the hedonistic wasteland of East Campus, hosts a great series of lectures throughout the year on subjects from a broad array of humanities fields. So whether you’re into Reconstruction or reification, you just might find something that suits your fancy. The Center’s schedule of […]
