Former Milstein correspondent, crafter of tweets, and Barnard’s hot OL shares her final thoughts on this finishing school. She loves you all.

It is the worst of times, and the most liminal of times. Reading week snuck up on us with a slap and here we are during finals: broken, disheartened, and yearning for summer (why is it still 40 degrees in May, anyway?).

 It’s our favorite campus holiday: Bacchanal! It’s the time of year when you shed your seasonal depression, wear shorts no matter the weather, and end your night at 3 PM only to wake up and party later. For the first years, transfers, exchange students, and any other Bacch virgins, Bacchanal is the Columbia version of fun, […]

If you’ve been enjoying the Bacchanal samples on our Instagram story this week, luckily for you, we’ve curated roughly an hour and a half of vibes and top hits by the Bacchanal artists.

We have an announcement.

Bwog Social Media Editor and Representative for Seven Sisters Relations on Barnard SGA Idris O’Neill is giving the lowdown on the changing SGA constitution. 

Social Media Editor and self-proclaimed Milstein expert (as well as IMATS employee, for transparency’s sake) Idris O’Neill is here to contribute to the actually insane amount of Milstein content on Bwog. It’s time to explore all the centers for learning that you’ve been missing out on.

Happening in the World: The Canadian diplomats to Cuba are suing the Canadian government for their inaction over an apparent epidemic known as Havana Syndrome. The government has insinuated that the symptoms, characterized as memory loss, dizziness, nausea, and headaches, could be psychosomatic.

In Social Media Editor Idris O’Neill’s utopia, Barnard’s dining points and Columbia’s dining dollars would be equal and Joe Coffee would accept said forms of currency. We’ll settle for finding a dining dollars daddy for now. Imagine: you’ve been in Butler for six hours (and yes, we know it’s the beginning of the semester) and […]

For as much or as little as you pay tuition, either way, there exist many resources at Barnard for low-income students to survive. Bwog has compiled a comprehensive list of resources at Barnard to help you get where you need to go. The most prominent resource for first-year students is the Barnard Bear Essentials Fund, […]

For those who have migrated from Butler to Milstein, Deputy Editor Idris O’Neill is begging you to abandon your old habits and adopt these new, more considerate ones. She’s tired of seeing you in group study rooms alone. 1. If you are a Columbia student, come with a buddy. Chances are you weren’t invited to the […]

In continuum with Deputy Editor Idris O’Neill’s complicated history with Columbia Crushes, she is broadcasting a Craigslist-guided job search for the new Columbia Crushes admin. Help us, anonymous Bwog reader, you’re our only hope.  I am an avid subscriber of the Columbia Crushes Facebook page and have recently not seen the Facebook page update as often as I […]

Year after year, you find yourself scrambling through your closet for clothes you can hastily turn into a costume. Despite knowing exactly when Halloween happens every year and the fact that it happens, again, every year, you are never ready for it. While you could settle for some of the real horrors Columbia has faced this […]

Bwog crashed the party of the year last night in the Glicker-Milstein Theater, where Prohibition was in effect yet ineffectual and the 20’s roared. Tuesday Daily Vivian Zhou and Deputy Editor Idris O’Neill lived to tell the tale of CU Players’ The Great Gatsby. The play opens with a casual atmosphere, inviting the audience to […]

The glaring red notification on your Mail app seems to glow just a little more intensely this month. You’re haunted by the drafted emails you’ve really only got as far as “Dear Professor” with. It’s been one week since you texted in Slack, five days since you emailed back, three days since you left your room–now […]
