The Final Degree: A Profile In Pre-Medicine

By Ezra Lerner on Oct 05, 2018 0 Comments

At Columbia, we all know pre-meds (or maybe we ARE one). Pre-meds have a reputation for their busy schedules, insane work ethics, and a seemingly built-in sense of delayed gratification. In this post, new Bwog staff writer Ezra Lerner explores what it means to be pre-med at Columbia. His laugh after the question is telling. […]

Theories On The Carman Serial Fire Alarm Puller

By Jordan Merrill on Oct 05, 2018 0 Comments

Close your eyes. Imagine it’s 2 A.M. on a Thursday night. You have a full 8 hours of sleep and the rest of your life ahead of you. Until you hear it–the beeps. Not small, tranquil beeps, but the deafening, monstrous beeps of the Carman fire alarm. For the past two weeks, many Columbia freshmen didn’t […]

Campus Dining Halls As Plato’s Five Regimes

By Bwog Staff on Oct 05, 2018 0 Comments

I’ve spent a lot of my time here on Bwog (perhaps too much time) writing about my favorite campus subject…the dining halls. This article will be no different. This time, we’re having a go at classifying each dining hall under the framework of Plato’s Five Regimes, which any CC student might be all-too-familiar with. The Kallipolis = JJ’s […]

Bwoglines: Ancient Swords And Allergy Pills Edition

By Nikita Desir on Oct 05, 2018 0 Comments

Happening in the World: This past summer in southern Sweden, 8-year-old Saga Vanecek discovered a sword that is more than 1,000 years old. The story was not published until now because officials feared that too many people would rush to Vidöstern lake, the location where the ancient sword was found (Time). Happening in the US: […]

At Fireside Chat, Bollinger Says Nothing Definitive

By Bwog Staff on Oct 04, 2018 2 Comments

Once a semester, a small group of students are selected to attend a Q&A at PrezBo’s house. They are treated to blintzes, fancy soda, and lots of very evasive answers. New Bwogger Yaniv Goren found this semester’s talk uncharacteristically dull, but not without highlights. Last night, President Bollinger held this academic year’s first Fireside Chat. […]

Conspiracy Theory: Schermerhorn Hall Is Not A Real Place

By Youngweon Lee on Oct 04, 2018 2 Comments

EIC Youngweon Lee asks a question that should be on all of our minds: does Schermerhorn Hall actually exist? My very first class at Columbia, a Tuesday 10:10 am anthropology class, was in 963 Schermerhorn Extension. I am adamant that this is probably one of the hardest classrooms to locate on campus, and it was […]

Or perhaps you’re a freshman yourself, preparing for the hell that is not having that backstage pass to JJ’s Place.

RoomHop: Not Your Classic Carman

By Tasnia Tasha on Oct 04, 2018 0 Comments

Upon hearing about the ten-person super suites of renovated Carman, this Bwogger knew she had to investigate. Having never entered the illustrious freshman residence hall that is Carman, there seemed to be only two possibilities of what was to come: either this would be an off-brand Bachelor in Paradise or the den of an above […]

By Abby Rubel on Oct 04, 2018 2 Comments

Happening in the World: Soil liquefaction is sweeping away already damaged neighborhoods in Indonesia. When soil is saturated with water, as it is after the earthquake and tsunami that ravaged the country, it can behave almost like a liquid.
