By Levi Cohen on Jan 19, 2018 0 Comments

Happening in the world: 2017 was the second-hottest year on record, according to NASA. It is behind only 2016, most likely due to the La Niña phenomenon, which cool the Earth down.

Amigos In Memoriam

By Youngweon Lee on Jan 17, 2018 0 Comments

Another beloved MoHi staple, Amigos, closed at the end of the last semester.

Rush Bwog And Become A Daily Editor

By Betsy Ladyzhets on Jan 17, 2018 2 Comments

Daily Editors are the backbone of Bwog. They assemble our Bwoglines, they write our tags, they keep our site running when the rest of our staff is slacking.
