laLate yesterday afternoon, Bwogger and sophomore at Barnard College Elle Ferguson died unexpectedly after introducing herself to the wrong professor.
As is normal for a student, when you’re constantly analysing university texts left, right, and centre, picking up a book voluntarily is not very common. I too related to this.

What does our fearless leader do when he’s not, um, doing whatever he does everyday? He watches Dean Quigley buy soup and he appears on public television. Last night, Bwog stayed up past our bedtime to catch PrezBo on Charlie Rose. Bollinger and the nearly equally dapper Mr. Rose spent most of El Presidente’s half […]
A double dose of book news today: first, Senior Tome Correspondent Jon Hill notes that Book Culture looks to have finalized its expansion into the space formerly occupied by Morningside Books.

In light of this tragedy, Bwog provides an original, Smugopedia-style talking point: “while some consider Updike’s everyday subjects unworthy of his characteristically intricate prose, his novels–the […]
Come holiday season, there’s a lot of hubbub about joy and all that jazz. But here at Columbia the first two weeks of December are decidedly unjoyous times. With visions of forthcoming finals dancing in our heads, at this point in the year, many of us have had it with academia. But today, Bwog brings […]
