By Bwog Staff on Sep 07, 2010 3 Comments

Columbia University health economist says weight gain in pregnancy can predispose you to obesity, opens a whole new realm of “yo mama” jokes. Columbia’s National Center on Addiction and Substance Abuse claims that 27 percent of public high and middle schools are just cesspools of gang activity and drug trafficking.

Classroom Courtesy: A Primer

By Bwog Staff on Sep 07, 2010 3 Comments

It’s the first day of school, folks! Savor the crackling sound of creasing book binds and the strong scent of newly sharpened pencils. Freshpeople, Bwog can’t believe you kids are already starting classes. It was only last week you were loading taxidermy rodents into your blue bins. After a week- long orientation, get ready to […]

Call for Opening Remarks

By Bwog Staff on Sep 07, 2010 15 Comments

You know the drill, unless you were born in 1992. On the first day of classes, professors say sweet, funny, strange and wonderful things to try to keep you in their classes, and also because they are sweet, funny, strange and wonderful people sometimes. When your professor says something worth sharing, email tips@bwog.com or write […]

Let’s remember NSOP 2010: A Whatever Odyssey together. We’ll see you in discussion section, fresh-people. We helped you configure your John Jay […]

Know Your Wikipedia

By Bwog Staff on Sep 06, 2010 8 Comments

’14ers out there may have realized that Bwog can be a valuable source of information about Columbia. However, even seasoned Columbians may not know some of this carefully checked, entirely reliable trivial knowledge. Great for parents weekend, when you want to steer away from the topic of grades and significant others. Columbia has its own […]

Labor Day Round-Up

By Bwog Staff on Sep 06, 2010 3 Comments

A few points of note from today’s lovely Labor Day. Bwog spent $7 on a bagel and orange juice at Nussbaum this morning, and remembered how our money goes so quickly here. Dinner at Mel’s Burger Bar is 10% off tonight and tomorrow with a Columbia/Barnard ID. We also hear that Hewitt isn’t swiping IDs […]

The Bwogtionary: A Lexicon

By Bwog Staff on Sep 06, 2010 12 Comments

Like Shakespeare and Sarah Palin, college students enjoy making up new words. HuffPo (that’s Huffington Post to you students who, er, haven’t read this article yet) recently did a piece on the language college students speak at schools that… aren’t Columbia, apparently. Here is Bwog’s comprehensive A-Z lexicon of all the words and phrases you will […]

Where Morningside Is Actually a College Town

By Bwog Staff on Sep 06, 2010 6 Comments

Morningside Heights likes to pretend that it is a college town. In recent years, that has been an increasingly difficult image to maintain: there’s about a bank per block between 110th and 116th Streets, and many independently owned stores have closed in the last few years to make room for big chains like Chipotle and […]

The Oracle is a Bust

By Bwog Staff on Sep 05, 2010 0 Comments

In May of last semester, CULPA came out with the Oracle, an algorithm that hoped to achieve the impossible–to predict the scheduling of Core Curriculum professors. For those wishing to avoid blindly selecting their Core courses, the Oracle stood as a beacon of hope. Unfortunately, when put to its first test this semester, the Oracle’s results […]

Things You Should Pretend You Already Knew

By Bwog Staff on Sep 05, 2010 27 Comments

Sometimes, fresh-people, in a seminar, or at a party, someone will reference something that used to exist and doesn’t anymore, and you will have to nod your head or laugh knowingly. Ah yes, Morningside is like, so gentrified, you will say. We asked alumni of The Blue and White and Bwog for places, events, and […]
