It may be cold enough to freeze your coffee inside its not-particularly-well-insulated Starbucks cup, but that’s not about to stop your new professors from piling you with work. But this semester is going to be The Semester – the one when you finally get ahead in your classes, find a cool paid internship, and figure out the secret […]

A passenger bus carrying 30 students and adult volunteers to the Toncontín International Airport drove off a Honduras highway into a ravine. All of the passengers were affiliated with the Columbia Medical Brigade. Three passengers are confirmed dead and eight are in critical […]

Like most schools, Columbia has a somewhat propagandist social media presence (like, where do they find all those pictures of smiling students?). Yesterday, to that end, Columbia’s Facebook page posted a “reminder of what a winter day should look like on campus”– you mean, because it’s so warm? Or because snow in NYC seems to immediately turn […]

As our semester draws to a close, we (as most Columbia students tend to do) are already looking to the new year. As you make your way home for the holidays, remember to take time this vacation to relax and realign (or something…do we sound like a Soul Cycle instructor?). Here’s a list of our […]

It’s (technically) the last day of finals, but we’re hoping your professors moved your finals that were supposed to be today to some time last week. Most of Bwog is home by now, and we’re using this winter vacation to relax, recharge, and return to school feeling like we’re “on a new level” (or something). […]

The outpouring of actual wisdom continues with Statistics professor Phillip Protter, who talks surprisingly little about statistics and surprisingly a lot about football and coffee houses. Justify your existence in 30 words or fewer: I click to save the world, therefore I am. Claim to fame: I took second in the mile relay for the state […]

Bwog Poetry

Now seems like a pretty good time to reflect upon the past year, so we used a website called Poetweet to turn some of our tweets from this year into poetry. Poetweet kindly produced a sonnet, a rondel, and an indriso, and even titled the poems for us. Some of the stanzas are quite apt, and […]

Per usual, science is terrifying and we’re all going to die. However, supposedly we’ll find love in the middle of [instert crisis here]? It’s a little unclear. Courtesy of the optimistic(?) Phoebe Newton, this edition of Bunsen Bwog is the apocalyptic version of spending an hour on WebMD (only to discover that you are for […]

Finals are almost over. Your ability to sit in a library for hours on end is running low. You’re starting to wonder if this is really your life, or some kind of hellish vision that your brain concocted during your freshman year of high school and has been punishing you with ever since. But don’t […]

Finals are a trying time – not only for our minds, but also for our hearts, bodies, and souls. But that doesn’t mean we can’t still have fun on the weekend … right? We’re stressed and we’re distressed, but we’re hanging on. At least, we’d like to think we are. And, as always, if you’d […]
