Just a couple blocks north is the Studio Museum in Harlem, where new Bwogger Zoë and not-new bwogger Amara headed on Thursday night. While most students make the rounds at […]

Investigating The Mysterious Fuck Spec Flyers

By Bwog Staff on Sep 22, 2017 3 Comments

We’ve been spotting mysterious “Fuck Spec” flyers around campus. We kind of wish it was us, but it’s not. We sent Staff Write Abby Rubel to investigate. Approximately eight days ago, a flyer appeared in the Hartley lobby promoting a new website: fuckspec.com. I immediately investigated, because nothing excites a Bwog writer more than someone […]

Classroom Idiocy

By Gabrielle Kloppers on Sep 21, 2017 1 Comments

Sometimes, in our daily lives at Columbia, we see another student do something so inspiring that we feel compelled to share their story with everyone on campus. Managing Editor Betsy Ladyzhets had such an experience a few nights ago. At first glance, she seemed unassuming. Just another student milling through the Monday night JJ’s rush, […]
