By Bwog Staff on Oct 11, 2009 26 Comments

But there are many Columbians whose profiles are lower, yet their talents are just as (or even more) awesome.

Shiny Happy Professor Reviews Get A Makeover

By Bwog Staff on Oct 11, 2009 4 Comments

Several tipsters noted last night that the student resource par excellence known as CULPA was down. But after fretting over how we’d pick the easiest classes next semester, we were relieved to learn that CULPA 3.0 (as its staff calls the new version) is now online. What’s new, you ask?

By Bwog Staff on Oct 11, 2009 10 Comments

A CUID deity has fallen. Fraudulent CUID detective John Nordin has tipped that Rita Hollander’s ID– the CUID to which we are all meant to aspire– has expired! As of May 2009, the robotic Ms. Hollander, the (semi) anonymous face of the CUID, is no longer a registered member of the Columbia community. It’s going […]

Everyone Loves Bike Lanes

By Bwog Staff on Oct 11, 2009 12 Comments

That’s probably because everyone loves bikes – you’d be hard pressed to find a cooler eco-friendly, transportation-providing accessory. Turns out the Upper West Side loves bikes, too.

Netflix: The WTF Awards!? Edition

By Bwog Staff on Oct 10, 2009 0 Comments

Bwog’s “surprised and humbled” film guy Mark Hay is back with this week’s movie recommendations. So Obama got a Nobel Peace prize – how very strange.

Lecture Hop: Trends in Well-Being

By Bwog Staff on Oct 10, 2009 0 Comments

Thursday afternoon saw NYU professor Edward Wolff (the happy guy at right) visit IAB 801 to lecture on “Long-Term Trends in The Levy Institute Measure of Economic Well-Being, 1959-2004.” Sounds complicated? That didn’t stop Bwog’s Wealth and Mad Men correspondent Emily Ahn from filing a report. Like a book, you can’t judge a lecture by its title. […]

Bwoglines: Lucky Us

By Bwog Staff on Oct 10, 2009 4 Comments

Supplies of the regular flu vaccine are running low in some parts of the country. Good thing the patient patients among us were vaccinated on Tuesday.
