By Bwog Staff on Dec 17, 2009 22 Comments

Multiple reports from the 209 front tell Bwog that about 10-30 people just entered 209 and played “YMCA.” A spate of vicious dancing ensued. Points to the merry pranksters for getting people to play along, with only a few points subtracted for being decked out in what several tipsters called “80s gear” and spandex. Unfortunately, […]

By Bwog Staff on Dec 17, 2009 4 Comments

A proposed secret international treaty would greatly heighten penalties for copyright infringement, some threatening civil liberties. SocketHop, the technology decoder for the literature-minded, takes a look. Everyone breathed a sigh of relief when it was announced one year ago that the music industry would stop its broad lawsuits against alleged file sharers. Since about 2003, […]

And The Band Played On…

By Bwog Staff on Dec 17, 2009 38 Comments

Bwog Sousaphone bureau chief Peter Krawzcyk stood on some poor first-year’s desk in 209 to attend this fall’s Orgo Night extravaganza. This may come as a surprise to anyone of the several hundred that packed into a sweaty Butler 209 at midnight last night, but not everyone attended the fall iteration of the Marching Band’s […]

Mama Mexico appears to have had some trouble with the authorities, as Lecture Hop Editor Emeritus Sara Jane Panfil notes that its 102nd Street location has been seized by “The Man” for non-payment of taxes. The website does seem to indicate the other two locations are still going strong.

AskBwog: The Little Fortress

By Bwog Staff on Dec 16, 2009 13 Comments

The abandoned stone structure on 119th and Amsterdam sort of looks like a medieval castle – a very, very small one. It isn’t quite the stuff of architecture classes, but the little building stands out – you’ve probably wondered what it is or was as you passed the forgotten, weedy lot. It’s not like there’s […]

A For Apathy

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
