By Bwog Staff on Dec 16, 2009 74 Comments

Students from a Radical Democracy course are ending the semester with a bang: a truelife protest on Low Steps.

Ready, Set, Evaluate!

By Bwog Staff on Dec 16, 2009 7 Comments

You probably haven’t been as excited to evaluate your courses as that automated Courseworks student-pestering system thinks you are. Yes, robot, I must have just forgotten to do my evaluations, thanks for the reminder! But at this point you’ve got to start thinking about it, since the deadline for most class evaluations is tonight (presumably) […]

The Grant Houses Community Garden Project is exactly what it sounds like. Columbia students want to help public housing residents just north of us build a garden for communal use that could become a sustainable and nutritious food source as well as a source of community pride.

For Your Self-Reflective Procrastination

By Bwog Staff on Dec 16, 2009 7 Comments

In 15 days the decade will end (and no, we do NOT subscribe to the absurd theory that it actually ends in 2010). The idea can be rather shocking for those of us who passed our teen years entirely within the age they call “the noughties.” To get some perspective, Bwog takes stock of what […]

Bwoglines: Sustaining Losses

By Bwog Staff on Dec 16, 2009 0 Comments

Kids (who don’t live two blocks from class like most of us) could lose the free and discounted Metrocards that get them to school every day. (NY Times) No need to panic over 800,000 doses of H1N1 vaccine lost to a recall. Apparently, it just wasn’t “potent” enough. (ABC News) Empire State Development Corporation (which […]

So Long, Farewell

By Bwog Staff on Dec 15, 2009 24 Comments

As the semester draws its last rattling breaths, your professors offer their wit and wisdom to sustain you through finals. Bruce Cronin, American Foreign Policy, on cheating: “If you’re Jewish or you’re Catholic, this will eat away at your soul for the rest of your life.

Are You ROFL Yet?

By Bwog Staff on Dec 15, 2009 5 Comments

Bored @ Butler is on indefinite hiatus, FML is fast becoming a distant memory, and the short-lived MLIA is only funny for about two minutes. With such scant options, Columbia students have decided to take the new frontier of internet procrastination for their own: Jin Ha, CC ’12, started a Facebook group entitled Texts from […]
