In a new Bwog feature, we go into Butler Library to explore some of the most checked-out books at Columbia. Once we find them, we look not at the content of the literature but at the discourse around them. The notes written in by generations of students, if they don’t illuminate some new feature of […]

Apparently, studying in bars is something students at this university do–there’s nothing like reading St. Augustine’s Confessions over a Long Island Iced Tea, right (we’re kidding)?? We sent one of our staff writers to 1020 this past Sunday to check out what the ambience is like for doing homework. I made the icy trek to 1020 late […]

The Hubble Telescope recently captured a photo of a black hole! Cool, right? Also, the black hole happens to be about 21 billion times bigger than the Sun. Just in case you were thinking about having an existential crisis tonight. (Yahoo) South Dakota reminded everyone of its existence in the worst way possible–by introducing discriminatory legislature […]

We’re not sure how you could have missed it—the high-speed winds, the slanted rain, the overwhelming sense that you were fighting against nature and ultimately, would lose.

USenate doesn’t send updates too often, so we were surprised by their recent email detailing ongoing policy discussions. The initiatives mentioned were increasing space for students (for studying and clubs) as some schools begin to move uptown, a revamping of course evaluation protocol, and a mention of the movement to commemorate the Lenape peoples with a plaque on campus. Additionally, […]

Vine truther Jennifer Nugent refuses to keep her mouth shut, and delivers to you a tale of stunningly terrible customer service. Recently, I have been hearing a lot of horror stories about Vine, Columbia’s most convenient sushi supplier. Just last week, I witnessed a customer in the process of getting reimbursed for a meal he had at […]

Upheaval, new faces, rap music, and fractions were what best characterized last night’s GSSC’s meeting, at least according to our resident Roone reporter, Romane Thomas. With a notable lack of alliteration, she breezily gives us all the deets. Yesterday night’s General Studies Student Council (GSSC) meeting turned theatrical when the student council moved from its normal meeting […]

Has PrezOb taken a page out of Shonda Rhimes’s playbook and murdered a United States justice, a la Scandal’s Fitz? Well, at least one person thinks so. (Black Bag) A presumably wide-eyed Arkansas tourist had his skull fractured by a mysterious ex-con; the tourist had refused to buy tickets to the Statue of Liberty from his […]

Some of you may be familiar with the website Texts From Last Night (TFLN), where users submit screenshots of texts they sent during nights out. After looking at some of our embarrassing screenshots, we realized that a lot of our texts could have easily been submissions from the website, despite the fact that they were […]

“Did Columbia blow it or did Princeton swipe it away? Yes.” Ivy Hoops Online’s Mike Tony perfectly described Saturday night’s game at Levien, and perhaps the season for Columbia as a whole. Through a series of improbable events, a slew of amazing shots, and a pair of Princeton players who refused to go quietly into […]
