Diana Correspondent Renée Kraiem brings the latest from the SGA. DSpar stopped by SGA this week to give thanks and get thoughts from Rep Council about the College’s forthcoming capital campaign, its Global Symposia and its new Constellations program. Each conversation built upon the central topics of SGA discussions this semester: communication and cash, and what […]

For the second day in a row, famed NYC food trucks will continue their occupation of College Walk, courtesy of Columbia Cheatsheet and Bacchanal. Today’s on-the-go menu will feature drool-worthy offerings from the GO Burger Truck and the Treats Truck (we hear their Mexican chocolate is pretty delicious). They’ll be stationed there from 12 to 4 pm, so scurry on over […]

Lassen wir uns über Musik sprechen. Bacchanal took to Bwog last Thursday to stir up recommendations for Spring’s annual concert, and boy did ya’ll deliver. One hundred and seventy comments later, a ton of possibilities are on the table. The folks over at Live at Lerner conveniently created a Spotify playlist on Facebook sampling just a few […]

Update: Organizers of Bacchanal have pulled together funds from councils and are now at roughly the same budget they had two years ago for Chewbacchanal. Here’s an explanatory video CCSC made about the club’s financial situation: In the democratic spirit of the recent elections, the people from Bacchanal want to know what sort of band […]

Sean Zimmermann reports from last night’s Engineering Student Council Meeting. Bacchanal President Daniel Weinstein presented the group’s financial status to ESC, pleading that their current financial problems are the fault of university administration. As it stands, their budget is $38,000 less than it was last year. Bacchanal has already canceled its Fall concert (which costs […]

Columbia’s investments returned at a rate of 24 percent over the last year, edging out Harvard and Yale for the best-performing endowment among the Ivies.

Last week Sarah Ngu brought you the details of CCSC’s fall budget, a hefty $472,125. She breaks down two major and distinct issues raised in CCSC this week, course registration and its associated problems, and the fact that Bacchanal is missing a significant part of its budget. A quick note on ESC: this week’s meeting […]

Bacchanal 2011 in picture and video. Stay tuned for tales from the concert! The grand approach:

Bwog’s Wednesday feature, Where Art Thou?, is here to keep you posted on what’s going on in the A&E department in Morningside Heights and beyond (basically all the cool events your friends are in/on/at). If your club is bringing Snoop to Columbia, and you want it posted on Bwog, now you can make it happen! […]

Please note that Dean Peña-Mora does not endorse the content of this video. But…OMG.

A little bit of sour news, Columbia. Threatening precipitation has forced the good people at Bacchanal to move their Dark Side of the Oz screening indoors. Instead of once on the Low Steps, the movie will be screened twice, at 8 pm and 9 pm in the Lerner Cinema. Run time is about 45 minutes. According […]

Why is Columbia so violent? The Clash of the Classes continues unabated, the Battle for IAB ended in an indecisive slaughter, everyone is preparing for the upcoming Penny War, and tonight’s the Battle of the Bands! There are ten nine contestants, but only one will be victorious and perform during the Abacchalypse. It’s like the Highlander, if […]

The Space Shuttle Enterprise will touch down at the Intrepid! Cue NSOP 2011. A nugget of history for you: the Enterprise was the first shuttle orbiter, but never actually flew in space. Geek out. (Intrepid Museum) A Columbia Comp Sci study found that people can’t quite handle social networking privacy settings—they’re either “sharing something they wished to […]

The Abacchalypse approaches! CU Records has selected the 10 bands that will compete on Friday, April 15th to be the opening band at Bacchanal. A panel of 3 outside judges and an audience vote will determine the winner of the Battle of the Bands. Check out the bands’ websites to whet your palette: Simon Herzog […]

We’re not joking, just joking, we are joking, just joking, we’re not joking: much-hyped and utlra-hip “we’re kinda like rap/noise/pop” hip-hop duo Das Racist and Calvin Cordozar Braudus, Jr. aka SNOOP DOGG will perform at this year’s spring concert. The winner of CU Records’ Battle of the Bands (to be chosen on April 15) will […]
