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. The room—even fifteen minutes before the start of the presentation—was packed, with people finding empty space on the floor […]

Liberate Me From Basketball Tiebreaker Hell

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. As we near the end of the season, anything could happen – […]

Tired of all the basketball hype? Check out what some of the lesser-known sports have going on this weekend! (Ok, baseball is one of the major sports, but almost no one goes to games, so it counts.)

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. But, what happens if you let your wiki-binge take on a more Columbia-specific flavor? You can make some…interesting discoveries about our institutional […]

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 […]

By Ross Chapman on Feb 22, 2018 0 Comments

If you’re a senior who’s tired of not having an answer to the question, “what are you doing after you graduate,” you may have applied to graduate school.

Bwoglines: Separation Of Church And State Edition

By Isabel Sepúlveda on Feb 22, 2018 0 Comments

Happening in the World: Ireland has ordered that state-run secondary schools can no longer assume that students will receive religious instruction and must offer alternatives to religion classes.

How To Get $2.7 Million To Buy The House From Call Me By Your Name

By Bwog Staff on Feb 21, 2018 0 Comments

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 […]

By Victoria Arancio on Feb 21, 2018 0 Comments

It’s the end of February—one of our least favorite (but necessary) months in the year. It’s still technically winter, but why is it so fucking hot? Hear us out: we think that we’ve figured out why it is so fucking hot on campus today. Do you remember when we first began to experience the trials […]
