No more CUnity this year. Orientating first-years, who arrived at Columbia a few years too late to have Edward Said tell them that they have in fact been Occidentating all along, instead had BlaZe–a kind of scavenger hunt / color war hybrid–sending them screaming across campuses on both sides of Broadway. Naturally, Bwog was there, […]

In which frequent Bwog contributor J.J.V Neun expounds on the importance of knowing Columbia’s most magnanimous employees.

It’s your first day at Columbia.  Mom and Dad just drove back to New Jersey, and you are ready to celebrate your newfound freedom.  But wait.  Shit!  You’ve heard that Columbia is an awful party school.  They say the only fun thing to do here is cocaine, but you don’t want to put anything in […]

Bwog isn’t sure what this poster found in a Carman elevator is meant to advertise (the e-mail address reads optimistsociety@hotmail.com, although we doubt they mean these people), but we are sure that the reactions to it are just terribly, terribly wrong.

There’s free food from Saigon Grill in the Carman Lounge RIGHT NOW. There’s plenty, but the event has ended, so they might take it away soon. Grab some ASAP!

Overheard on the Carman elevator: Guy A: Well, what are you going to do with a waffle maker? Guy B: Make waffles. Dear Feminism, Thank you for teaching men how to cook. Sincerely, The Bwog
