This summer, Columbia introduced the Financial Econ major, allowing undergrads to enroll in B-School classes (and perhaps partake in B-School bacchanalia) and inching Columbia a little closer to pre-professionalism. Today, that inch becomes a mile: the Center for Student Advising has just announced a Special Concentration in Business Management. You can apply here. The Concentration […]
Columbia students will be shooting a short video on the Millennium Development Goals at 6 PM at the Sundial, and they need lots of extras. Free pizza (this time hopefully warm) will be provided. Bwog guesses that this video is being created in anticipation of this weekend’s Millennium Campus Conference, a meeting of student leaders to discuss international […]
On Wednesday night, Columbia’s Donald Keene Center of Japanese Culture hosted Dr. Genshitsu Sen, the former Grand Master of the Urasenke school of the Japanese tea ceremony. Bwog, recognizing that there is such a thing as too much coffee, spent the evening in the audience at Casa Italiana, to learn about the Japanese tea ceremony, […]
We’re back again with Cooking with Bwog. In this week’s edition, the Culinary Club’s chef extraordinaire Matt Powell features the last of summer with Island Burgers and Taleggio Pear Paninis. Forget about yesterday’s downpour and live like it’s still 90 degrees out. Island Burgers I must insist that although the weather does not reflect it, […]
A few dozen boxes of cold Famiglia pizza in Lerner lobby (on the Broadway side, next to elevators) and scattered around the SGO, leftover from an SDA events. Hay, acronyms. Cold pizza is still pizza!
Last night in the Roone Auditorium, the Muslim Students Association held their annual Fast-A-Thon. This year benefited Pakistani flood relief. The attendees had mostly been fasting since sunrise, so people came hungry. The program began with a call to prayer, and then those inclined were invited to pray. Following that, food was distributed and the […]

Today, 50 Park(ing) Spots may be found in all five boroughs of New York. For more information, check out blog.parkingdaynyc.org. Bwog visited Greenborough’s parking […]
Bwog hopes you all had a lovely Thursday night. If you think you might’ve lost something, tipsters Lily Keane and Maggie Alden have sent us photos that could help you retrace your night.
Item: A notebook with a yellowish cover. It has a red sticker with a cross cut out on the front, and the name “Alice” written underneath. Location lost: Not sure. Possibly Mudd.
The 9th Annual Fun Run took place this morning at 8:30am—an hour so early that Bwog was only just getting home when the race began. We hear that the race went swimmingly, but Bwog’s still bitter about getting waitlisted. Here’s a sample playlist from before the race began: Run (Vampire Weekend) Born to Run (Bruce […]
