QuickFed: The Discontent Edition

By Bwog Staff on Dec 04, 2009 5 Comments

As the last autumn of the decade comes to a close, celebrate the season’s bounty with the November issue of The Fed. It’ll be nice and alternative. The MLB is all kinds of wacky!

Bwoglines: Things that (Apparently) Suck

By Bwog Staff on Dec 04, 2009 4 Comments

Underperforming public schools—Bloomberg’s on the case. Natural History Museums that don’t grant PhDs in comparative biology—but Manhattan doesn’t have one of those anymore. Anything involving the New Jersey Nets—literally, anything. Being Hofstra and having a football team… wait, really? Drinking your alcohol. UPDATE: A commenter has notified us of a Columbia-related news item – James […]

Columbia Wants 60 Seconds of Your Time…

By Bwog Staff on Dec 03, 2009 7 Comments

To complete the “Campus Tobacco Student Poll,” which went out to pre-selected students’ inboxes earlier this evening. An informal and shockingly unscientific poll of Blue and White/Bwog staffers leads us to guesstimate that if you didn’t get an invite, you probably know several people who did (unless you really don’t get out that much).

By Bwog Staff on Dec 03, 2009 6 Comments

“Smuggler” refers to a production company based in New York, but, alas, it’s not actually a film shoot. A phone call to the company revealed that they’re shooting a Cottonelle commercial. Perhaps they’ll give us some samples to replace the wax paper currently supplied to dorms. Update, 5:07 PM: B&W Editor-in-Chief Juli Weiner says […]

The 3-to-2 decision […]
