Suffolk County on Long Island was open for hunting for the first time ever on Saturday, but barely any turkeys showed up. Go figure. (NYT) Speaking of eating turkeys, although fewer flights mean fewer delays, good luck flying out of the city for Thanksgiving and after exams. (NYP) Butler Lawns won’t be the only green […]
Bwog may not have on-campus free food tonight, but that doesn’t mean you still have to pay for dinner. New and Different Foodways Correspondent Peter Krawczyk reports on Columbia’s dumpster diving contingent. Let’s be clear: dumpster diving doesn’t involve jumping into any waste receptacles. That wouldn’t be any fun. It does, however, require digging through […]
While the football team’s semiotic deconstruction of Brown marked the end of their year, the basketball, wrestling, and swimming and diving teams are here to pick up the slack. The men’s team built on a close-til-the-end 59-53 loss to DePaul with a strong 72-61 victory over Longwood in their home opener. Sophomore Noruwa Agho paced […]

The second in Bwog Poultry Pundit David Hu’s serialized quest for the mythical Thanksgiving sandwich. Meal Two: Friday, November 20, 2009. 6:14pm Capri Panini from Nussbaum and Wu I continue my search for the elusive Thanksgiving sandwich in Morningside Heights. I’ll cop to disappointment–many places have said they do not have any special seasonal sandwiches […]
The latest issue of The Jester, Columbia’s humor magazine, is on newsstands now (full issue available here). Below, some highlights from their Plus/Minus offering. What every grad student TA wishes they could do to your abominable creative writing project. What pregnancy tests talk about when they talk about pregnancy. Reasons it might not be so […]
If you ask nicely enough, the Postal Service will send your letter to Santa. (1010WINS) If you fire a gun, the cops will hear it. With computers! (New York Times) If you’re a waiter and fail to bother your customers for their e-mail addresses, you will get YELLED AT A WHOLE %&$*@#$ lot. (NY Post) […]
The stereotypical Columbia football season may be one long fall, but this year’s version would be better described as a roller-coaster, and today’s 28-14 victory over Brown ensured that ride ended on a happy note. Senior safety Andy Shalbrack returned an interception 49 yards for a touchdown at the end of the first half, and […]
Bwog Official Economic Smackdown Arbiter Mark Hay joined the audience in 313 Fayerweather to hear from NYU’s significantly more sarcastic answer to Jeff Sachs. When, while hosting a speech by our dear Professor Jeffrey Sachs last weekend, Columbia’s Delta GDP group announced that outspoken Sachs critic NYU Professor William Easterly would be coming to the […]
Resident Movies ‘n’ Mashed Potatoes Machine Mark Hay is back with three films to enjoy in that post-turkey stupor. Thanksgiving approaches quickly and many of you will be returning to your families.
