Gravity Sucks: Learning From One Of NASA’s Best

By Victoria Arancio on Feb 23, 2018 0 Comments

While she may have pass-failed her Astronomy course, Bwogger Victoria Arancio has always had a soft spot for science. In all my time at Columbia University, never have I seen so many people eager to learn about science.

By Ross Chapman on Feb 23, 2018 2 Comments

Senior Staffer Ross Chapman is really hoping the men’s basketball team doesn’t disappoint this year, though they probably will. Every year in late February, I write an article about the pile of nonsense that is Ivy League men’s basketball and its tiebreaker scenarios.

Down The WikiCU Rabbit Hole

By Isabel Sepúlveda on Feb 22, 2018 1 Comments

We’ve all had that moment where we want to check the year the Defenestration of Prague took place, only to look up from our phone four hours later having read through the entire entry for rope.

CU Personality Drinks

By Mary Welsh on Feb 22, 2018 0 Comments

Bwog staff brainstormed to match the personality of Columbia colleges to their respective alcoholic drink. CC students are overwhelmingly vanilla. Think gin & tonic and vodka cranberry. Basically, anything of which Ron Swanson would not approve. The language kids, however, are known for the unremarkable red and white wines served at every open house. We […]
