By Bwog Staff on Mar 31, 2010 6 Comments

The Columbia Political Union hosted another in its series of debates between the Columbia Democrats and Republicans. Senior Junior Political Correspondent Derek Huang was there. Ah, debate: an experience normally associated with eager high-schoolers who take themselves too seriously. Last night’s debate, though, involved a different type of hyper-argumentative youth.

By Bwog Staff on Mar 31, 2010 4 Comments

Food trucks have been all the rage for some time now, and they’ve begun to creep into Morningside Heights. We’ve had the Dessert Truck. We’ve still got the Wafels & Dinges truck. But how about something a bit less sweet, and a bit more personal? How about a student-run truck devoted to serving Columbia and […]

Some Things About Food and Drink

By Bwog Staff on Mar 31, 2010 5 Comments

First, overheard (overtexted?) from a Concerned Citizen: Sorry about our housing number dude. But at least someone filled 100 large Snapple bottles with water and put them in the McBain elevator.
