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.

The beautiful house that served as the setting of Call Me by Your Name is on sale in Lombardi, Italy. It’s fair game: anyone willing and able to purchase it can become its new, loving owner. The only caveat is that it costs $2.7 million. As broke college students, it’s hard to come up with that much […]
