Career development has been pretty fishy lately… with weird jobs posted on Nacelink, and the office’s awkward location on Claremont, one of our Staff Writers was pushed past her limit with her most recent experiences, described below.  I visited the Barnard Office of Career Development for the first time last week, when it suddenly hit […]

We’ve all had that moment: you’re looking in the mirror, examining your bedraggled second-semester face, and you have that thought: Why don’t I look like Ben Stiller in Night at the Museum, during his prime?? Well, unfortunately, you’re stuck with that embittered mug until you die (or earn enough to get the lines etched into your […]

Still scribbling out her thesis, Barnard senior and “self-hating Jew” Eva Kalikoff took a few minutes to share some thoughts about activism, sushi, and Senior Scramble. Let her wisdom blow you away, and peruse our library of knowledge at your leisure.  Name, School, Major, Hometown: Eva Kalikoff, Barnard College, Comparative Literature, Hastings-on-Hudson, NY Claim to fame: I […]

This past week, a few lucky Bwoggers got the chance to experience the glorious Diana Center rooftop and look over PrezBo’s Manhattanville. We were also lucky enough to catch a bird’s eye glimpse of the Barnard campus now that it’s under full construction. We figured it would probably still have the beloved walkway that connected Milbank and […]

You roll up your mom jeans to show off your Birkenstocks. Your men’s Bernie t-shirt is perfectly tucked in, and your undercut is perfectly arranged. As the 1 train pulls away from the station, you head up the stairs and use the exit on the west side of the station. You’re not going to Days […]

Barnard students just received an email announcing tuition and fees for next year, as well as changes to the dining plan. Though Barnard students lost JJ’s Place access last year, they will once again be able to swipe into the dining hall in the fall. The email announced other changes as well, such as dinner being […]

Dean Hinkson and Chief Operating Officer Robert Goldberg announced today that, in line with Columbia’s efforts, Barnard College will raise the minimum wage for students working for Barnard. The change, to be indexed over three years, will raise the minimum wage for student workers to $15 per hour by September 2018. Starting next September, the […]

Today is a momentous day! Ok, not really, but it is the last day for SEAS and Barnard students to make certain changes to their schedules. Today, March 24, is the last day SEAS students can elect to Pass/D/Fail a class and is also the SEAS R-credit deadline and class withdrawal deadline. Get on those computers and […]

Next fall may seem lightyears away, but Barnard Residential Life is here to shorten that distance for you. Today begins the week-long gap to register for Barnard on-campus housing for the next calendar year. Barnard students will have until Monday, March 28 to secure their guaranteed housing this g-around. Students can register on the Res […]

This morning, Dean Hinkson and President Spar sent an email to Barnard students informing them that Jessi Dietrich, BC ’16, had taken her own life. Jessi was a senior psychology major from Florida and vice president of the Pre-Vet Society. Dean Hinkson and President Spar reminded students that there is “no right or wrong way […]

Bwog has noticed that Columbia students tend to not be familiar with Barnard’s campus. In hopes of deducing just what these confused onlookers know about Barnard’s layout, we’ve asked some lucky CC/SEAS students to fill out blank maps of Barnard’s campus. Their—often completely wrong—assessments are included below. I was stopped by a confused woman the […]

Barnard President Debora Spar responds to recent student and faculty concerns regarding this year’s commencement speaker in a letter to-the-editor published on the Spectator website late this afternoon. Spar says that hearing from students and faculty about the lack of diversity in commencement speakers has pushed her office to begin working with the medalists who […]

This Tuesday is the last day to declare your English major, or whatever else you might be majoring in, Barnard sophomores! But don’t worry too much, ’cause that’s more of a soft deadline. Dean Kuan Tsu explains this in an email sent yesterday: Since there is no late fee attached to this deadline, it is […]

SGA sent out an email to Barnard students this morning concerning a referendum on Barnard’s fossil fuel divestment. Following several protests on campus and the Board of Trustees announcing they will consider divestment, SGA created the referendum to gage student interest on the topic, particularly if students support divestment. All Barnard students may vote via […]
