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.

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.

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.

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

By Bwog Staff on Dec 10, 2009 23 Comments
