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, […]

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.

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 […]
If you thought Columbia bureaucracy was frustrating, think again. Several Columbia international students still have yet to arrive on campus due to delayed visas. (Spec) France’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs’ Twitter account is hacked, and Sarkozy tells the Romanian people how he really feels. Prezbo, on the other hand, only seems to be worried about […]
It rained! Outside, like it normally does, but also inside 417 IAB. Thanks to Kristina Chen for the pictures, and big ups to Professor Sadighian for thinking ahead. The storm was actually pretty insane.
