Small Tubes: The Bwog Internet Connection Survey

By Bwog Staff on Nov 05, 2009 10 Comments

One of the draws of coming back to school is the Super Fast Internet Connection. At Columbia, we boast a roughly 10 megabits per second internet connection for both uploading and downloading. Sound like gibberish? For reference, consider that a typical MP3 (music file) is about 48 megabits in size, so it would take about […]

Free Hot Chocolate on the Steps

By Bwog Staff on Nov 05, 2009 11 Comments

Courtesy of the V-Show, in advance of their info session on Saturday. No palm trees this year, but there are cardboard cutouts of James Franco and Prezbo for all your silly picture needs. Also, if you forgot yesterday, ProjectHealth is still offering free cupcake coupons for old winter coats at the Sundial.

Along with the rest of the cast from Law and Order Special Victims Unit.

True Life: I’ve Only Got a Buck

By Bwog Staff on Nov 04, 2009 17 Comments

There isn’t much of it in Morningside, but believe it; there really is food out there for just 1$. We’re not talking candy, fruit, teeny baked goods, or a single piece of popcorn shrimp either. Bwog combed through the dozens of pretenders (including City Room) who claim to possess the ultimate list to bring you […]

Free Food for Coats!

By Bwog Staff on Nov 04, 2009 2 Comments

Come one, come all for free cupcakes! Not actually – this only applies to you if you have a ratty, unwanted, or unfashionable coat lying around (which we know you do) and can carry it to the ProjectHealth Coat Drive between today and Saturday (which you probably can). If you do bring over your old […]

Sean Quirk has the last word on the trip. Disregarding the dismal polls, we awoke at 6:30 A.M., performed our morning kinesthetics, and began our work for the […]

AskBwog: What a Lovely Vacation… I mean, Election

By Bwog Staff on Nov 04, 2009 3 Comments

To Columbians, Election Day means more than the clatter of local politics in Wien. The coming of democracy signals the end of debauchery; Halloween and our four-or-five-day break is over. But why do we break now instead of earlier in the semester like our Columbus-Day-hating brethren? Bwog’s own David Hu looked the gift horse so […]

By Bwog Staff on Nov 04, 2009 1 Comments

The city elections wrapped up with a surprisingly small winning margin for Mike Bloomberg. Democrats took pretty much everything else in the city, while Republicans snagged two gubernatorial seats nationwide. (NY Times) Around 5:30AM yesterday a now identified NYU junior jumped to his death in Bobst Library. The library was reopened and tours resumed around […]

Gunpoint Robbery in Riverside

By Bwog Staff on Nov 03, 2009 16 Comments

PrezBo Gets “Uninhibited”

By Bwog Staff on Nov 03, 2009 10 Comments

Sure, the university’s fearless leader may have seen his salary slip slightly, but PrezBo’s got another trick up his sleeve for the holidays: a new book. Uninhibited, Robust, and Wide-Open: A Free Press for a New Century will be released by Oxford University Press in December, with Amazon and Barnes and Noble listing the official […]
