Bwoglines: Truth Edition

By Bwog Staff on Dec 11, 2009 1 Comments

Barack Obama CC ’83 accepts the Nobel Peace Prize, tells the “hard truth” about war, annoys the entire population of Norway, departs with lingonberry jam and a bag of frozen Swedish meatballs; all in a day’s work.

Free Holiday-like Food

By Bwog Staff on Dec 10, 2009 0 Comments

The Club Sports Governing Board will have treats for you this evening in the John Jay Lounge. From 7:30 PM to 9:00 PM, gorge yourselves on eggnog, hot chocolate, and cookies. The eggnog will probably be nonalcoholic, but nothing’s stopping you from taking it back to your over-21 room and adding your legally-purchased rum.

By Bwog Staff on Dec 10, 2009 18 Comments

We’ve been hoping to see an agreeable resolution since it was discovered that we’d only have one study day this semester. Thanks to student government intervention, we now have two days, but many students still have to leave just two days before Christmas, a time of higher fares and overbooked flights. Columbia has traditionally started […]

Guess What? The Meal Plan Isn’t All That Popular

By Bwog Staff on Dec 10, 2009 23 Comments

As you may have heard, Barnard officially announced required meal plans for all students starting next semester year.

Looking forward to all the exciting new dining options, such as “a state-of-the-art dining room and Liz’s Place, an expanded and improved-upon replacement for Java City.” Well, even if you weren’t giddy with anticipation, you’ll have to spend some money there: […]
