Think your life is Barnard? Well, there’s no knowing for sure until you cross reference it against the itemized guide below, inspired by the Twitter account and brought to life by Cartoon Architect and Sensational Satirist Julia Stern:

Some Barnard students are reacting with frustration and confusion to an email sent out by Dean Hinkson this morning. The message briefly outlines Barnard’s new tuition policy, which mandates that all students pay full-time fees, beginning fall next year. Traditionally, BC students taking less than 12 credits were able to pay tuition on a per-credit […]

We have a new concept space on campus, hot on the heels of the Zen Garden. A recent email from DSpar on Barnard’s renovations included the following message: “Thanks to the faculty and students in the Architecture Department, Altschul Atrium is newly reconfigured as The Hive. It’s an innovative space divided into lounge, meeting, and […]

If you saw free L’Oreal blush-bronzer combos being handed out today in the Diana, it was in preparation for this evening’s extravaganza: Update: The speakers included Meghan McCain and Taraji P. Henson. Bwog has obtained a picture of the gift bag. You may ogle the beauty products below.

A year’s tuition at Barnard gets you one year of bona fide Barnard education, or it makes you the owner of Barnard Island, Florida — only 45 minutes from Disney World Orlando! One of our most astute alumni tipsters noted that a recent roundup of private islands currently for sale includes the mythical isle for […]

We already told you why it was important that you use encrypted WiFi, back when Columbia launched its secure network. Directions on how to log in to “Barnard Secure” are included in the e-mail to students below. […]

Just because finals start tomorrow in earnest doesn’t mean you can’t have fun tonight! At midnight in 209, CUMB hosts Orgo Night. There will be music, shouting, school spirit, and Barnard jokes. Speaking of the ladies across Broadway, tonight is another Midnight Breakfast. There will be barrels of free food. Barnard seniors may start munching […]

In today’s EcoConch, we take you to Barnard! Perhaps you haven’t heard, but a recent streak of flagrant and wanton littering has hit the school hard. To combat this problem, Barnard decided to…spread fliers all over? That’s right, they spread ironically green anti-litter fliers all over the floor. So, EcoReps, we call on you! Tell […]

McAC will be serving up free sno cones on Lehman Walk from 4-6 pm! If it rains, the event will be moved to the Diana. That’s kind of funny, because if it rains then there is no point to sno cones! Fruit punch via Wikimedia Commons

For those of you who (a) didn’t know or (b) were all grumpy-dumpy, today is Barnard Spirit Day! Though events have already gotten underway, there’s still fun to be had. Until 4 pm, perky people will serve free ice cream in the 2nd floor dining room of the Diana. And, tonight from 4:30 to 7 pm, […]

This week, accepted Barnard prospies for the class of 2015 are receiving their letters–and they will have to wait, because Barnard holds to tradition in sending out only paper acceptances. So much admissions hoopla going on! And it was a notable year for Barnard. The college saw a 38% increase in early applications, from 397 […]

The Barnard public safety shuttle is currently out of service. Barnard Public Safety has emphatically assured us that if you call, they will provide public transportation, but declined to say when the shuttle will be back in service. Here’s the email that Barnard Public Safety sent yesterday to their friends: From: <agonzale@barnard.edu> Date: Fri, Mar 25, […]

Check out this amazing poster found at Barnard! Advertising the Barnard Writing Program’s Student Grammar Workshops, it makes a comparison between commas and bras. It’s funny.  

Bwog’s Thesp Crit Joshua Sorenshine caught the last show of the thesis festival last night: This weekend, the Barnard theater department opened its doors for the annual thesis festival, giving audiences a performance that left this reviewer heartily satisfied. Both Alex Brinkman-Young’s, BC ’11 rendition of Tom Stoppard’s Cahoot’s Macbeth and Katie Lupica’s, CC ’11 […]

Last night, the Barnard Student Government Association’s first Town Hall of the semester asked some pretty lofty questions—what does diversity mean? What can diversity mean? What should diversity mean? Bwog’s very own Katheryn Thayer reports back with some answers. Minori Takahashi, the Representative on Diversity, welcomed the program’s participants with a short speech urging us all to embrace our […]
