Introducing The Class of 2020: Columbia Rox And Everyone Else Sux

By Bwog Staff on Apr 06, 2016 11 Comments

Most of us look back on the early posts of our class Facebook groups with shame and bewilderment—they are testament to the one quality that freshmen at every institution embody: utter doltishness. If you’ve ever hoped that the species would evolve past this kind of posturing, it was in vain, for the Columbia Class of 2020 […]

Fix The Carman Elevators: A Plea

By Bwog Staff on Apr 06, 2016 0 Comments

Ostensibly, Carman has three elevators: two slow people-movers right past the security desk, and one freight elevator, if you’re willing to climb steps and walk through empty, circuitous, vaguely-menacing hallways. Of course, this hasn’t been the reality for the past few days—nearly a week. Instead, there has been only one operational elevator in a building housing […]

By Romane Thomas on Apr 06, 2016 0 Comments

GSSC isn’t afraid to have a little fun…but that doesn’t always result in a balanced budget. Winsome Wednesday contributor Romane Thomas reports back on the goings-on at GSSC, from poorly Photoshopped images and website redesigns to frisbee games and Gala drama.

Bwoglines: Dying Mantis Edition

By Bwog Staff on Apr 06, 2016 0 Comments

The Statue takes the New York Times: news of our sit-ins and petitions over a hunk of metal has reached that intellectual bastion. The point of the piece: Columbians don’t not protest something when they can protest something. (New York Times) Iceland’s prime minister proves not so cool under pressure—he’s resigned after the leaked Panama Papers […]

It’s All Downhill From Here: SGA Town Hall On The Barnard/Columbia Relationship

By Mia Lindheimer on Apr 05, 2016 13 Comments

On Monday evening, the SGA town hall attracted staff writer Mia Lindheimer – mostly due to the free Thai Market. Little did she know, her eyes would be opened to one of the most heated debates on campus: the Barnard-Columbia relationship. Do we all attend the same “university”? Yes. Are we separate colleges?

Chuck Norris Vs Communism

By Gabrielle Kloppers on Apr 05, 2016 0 Comments

No, Chuck Norris didn’t actually fight communists, pistols blazing in both hands. But the infiltration of Western media into the Soviet bloc definitely helped to fan anti-communist dispositions. Staff writer Gabrielle Kloppers writes about the recent documentary, Chuck Norris v Communism, and its effects on communist Romania. For many Columbia students, movies represent an escape from […]
