The realest evaluation of the main Barnumbia dining halls to-date—Halloween edition! Tricks or Treats, or Soon-to-Be-Ghosts of Halloweens Past?

Nothing better than your professors telling you, among other things, to get drunk, send nice emails, or vote for them in the future. Thanks for responding to our call and submitting direct quotes and/or descriptions of actions. A Bwog tradition, we once again bring you end-of-the-semester closing remarks! Alexis Soloski, LitHum: “Last week I threw […]

Unless you’ve been living under a rock since 2013, you know Bwog has a special affinity for Aubrey Graham aka Drizzy aka Champagne Papi aka Drake. We relate to his vulnerability and stuff, but mostly we love dancing like fiends to his hot, hot beats. As the superfans will tell you, this Saturday is a […]

There’s not much that’s better than Jeopardy. Well, unless you combine it with free pizza. And you can do just that tonight in Lerner 555, where Scientists and Engineers for a Better Society are hosting Nerdy Trivia Night from 5:30-7:00 pm. There will be free pizza and beverages, and the format of the night will […]

We enjoyed our first foray into the world of mixology so much that we decided to make it a weekly thing! Today, the Columbia Bartending Agency’s Nick Miyares shares a recipe for the Jolly Rancher Shot. Ever get tired of how disgusting alcohol can taste sometimes? Well, then try downing the delicious, yet very potent, […]

There’s a large bowl filled with a well-chosen and surprisingly photogenic mix of candy (gum, mints, SweetTarts, Laffy Taffy, etc.) currently waiting for you by the western elevators on Lerner 5. Be sure to thank your friends in the Varsity Show, who are the benefactors of your sugar rush.   UPDATE 5:18 PM: Candy time’s […]

Bwog kicks off Halloween early this year with a special guide to two of the neighborhood’s best costume purveyors, Ricky’s and  Possibilities @ Columbia. You can divide the world in two camps: Those who love Halloween and those who hate it.  Bwog falls into the former camp and we hope you do too. But we […]

As anyone who has stepped outside in the past hour might have noticed, there are swarms of over-studied, over-worked kids piling out of Butler and Lerner who are descending en masse on the Candyland BBQ. Lines stretch around the quad, with students at the beginning of the line providing Bwog with estimated wait times ranging […]

They’re setting up on South Lawn now—grilled meat, adult beverages (the usual 2 IDs to drink), and 200 pounds of sweet, sweet candy. It’ll go from 5 until 8PM.

Inexplicably, the Lions appear to be involved in a joint venture with Tic Tac at tonight’s game (they don’t say the sport in the hilarious press release, but Bwog will suppose it’s basketball). Coming soon: corporate naming rights for Baker Field? “Swish Undergraduate Athletics Center” has a nice ring to it. Long story made short: […]

Bwog is proud to announce the winner of our Valentine’s Day candy heart contest, in which we asked you to provide the best slogan to emblazon on one such heart. We’ve tallied all the votes, and we’re proud to announce the winning entry: YOU’LL DO Bwog congratulates Rob Trump for his ingenious wit and ability […]

Because there’s only one day a year and one candy medium that legitimate the claim that “heart” is a transitive verb, Bwog is celebrating candy hearts.  With a poll!  Here are the staff-selected finalists from the call for slogans we opened last week.  Vote away! {{poll “12”}}

This sign was spotted atop the muffin display case in Cafe 212. Coming soon: a crumpled piece of notebook paper tacked up next to the sandwich menu, reading, “Do u like me? Check box yes or no. Luv, Turkey.”

This installment of Cooking with Bwog may see a bit briefer than usual, but only because the recipe in question, Cookie Pizza, is profound enough stand on its own. If you can think of something more tasty, write it in the comments or send it along to bwgossip@columbia.edu. Cookie Pizza – The simplest version 1 […]
