By Bwog Staff on Sep 08, 2010 4 Comments

Dear Bwog: Cruisin’ for a Crew Edition

By Bwog Staff on Sep 08, 2010 8 Comments

Dear Bwog, I don’t mean to sound obnoxious, but people here aren’t as cultured as I expected. No one shares my music taste or gets my quirky brand of humor.

While You Were Tanning

By Bwog Staff on Sep 07, 2010 6 Comments

The Bwog editors didn’t take the summer off! Here are the highlights from when you were reading People instead of Bwog these past few months. GS Valedictorian Brian Corman “borrowed” a joke from a comedian in his speech. The 2011 Class Council used an idea from V116 for a new freshman initiative. F@CU announced its […]

Ain’t No Party Like A B-School Party

By Bwog Staff on Sep 07, 2010 3 Comments

B-School party outside Schermerhorn! Empanadas, asparagus in filo, tons of alcohol, fancy waiters, lots of ambition. There are legitimate ropes and officious B-school employees telling you not to eat the food. So just walk around those officious employees and take the food.
