UPDATE 8:54 PM:  Shots of Jacks for Experience.  (Now playing: “Damn It Feels Good to Be a Gangsta” by the Geto Boys.) UPDATE 8:50 PM:  George just called his mom, screaming. (Now playing: “We Are the Champions.”) Results are in from CCSC Elections Board: George Krebs is your new CCSC President. (Now playing in Krebs’s […]

UPDATE 8:38 PM: Alidad informed Bwog that he received a text message that he lost. However, Krebs has not received a text informing him that he won. Stand by. Just over 45 minutes ago, voting ended for the 2008 CCSC Elections. Ballots were cast, the gauntlet was thrown. While the CC listserv won’t receive an […]

UPDATE 2:42 PM: Damooei just called Bwog to inform us that the final word from Robert Taylor is that the Elections Board is not going to consider Krebs’ rules violation complaint because of the deal struck between Ness, Krebs, and Damooei. No idea what we’re talking about? Read on…  The front page of today’s Spectator […]

Did you know that lately, some students have been running for CCSC positions? Well it’s true, and you can exercise your right to democracy by voting today and tomorrow, either at an old-timey voting site on Low Plaza or on online. Polls are open from 9 AM to 7 PM both days.  In case you’re […]

The chickens have come home to roost.  Krebs and Alidaddy slug it out for the final time. Student group endorsements, here have one.  They’re handed out like candy. Even with this, no one still knows what any of those funny acronyms actually mean. Take a brochure, get more confused about Barnard. Phillip Roth is glad […]

Well dressed and well rehearsed, CCSC E-board candidates strut their stuff for the final time this evening in Wien Lounge, as they debated for the second time, trying to wrangle every last vote before the moratorium on campaigning Tuesday morning.  Alidad and George, both looking dapper with slightly loosened ties, recited their stumps as a […]

Welcome to yet another issue of Bwog Personals.  This time we are advertising the most available 2009 Class Council candidates, so be prepared for some sexy electoral action.  This post is D, for explicit manipulation of Democracy.  Bwog is providing $10 for a date and as always, nominate your friends (or yourself) for a personal […]

While Bwog is trying to avoid posting YouTube video after YouTube video about CCSC—well, no we’re not—we couldn’t resist this gem from the LE:MON boys. Plus, it gives us a chance to tease the upcoming Bwog Political Personals™ feature, coming in the next few days. Potential “Kristens” take note.

With only a week more of campaigning left, both CCSC E-Board candidates are starting to gather up endorsements. While Spec, Christian groups and other heavyweights have yet to back a candidate, Camp Krebs got a big boost with a CU College Dems endorsement. Alidad countered with BSO’s first ever endorsement and is currently leading Krebs in Greek […]

As we reported earlier, CCSC presidential candidate George Krebs challenged his opponent, Alidad Damooei, to a basketball showdown which was to be played this Friday in Dodge. As we also reported earlier, Krebs threatened that Damooei and Connect Columbia “be there or be square.”  Neither there nor, arguably, square, Damooei has re-buffed Krebs’ basketball throwdown […]

Three reminders of interest to the competitive games-playing community: Bwog’s 1st Annual Mario Kart Tournament will be this Friday at 6:30 PM in Ruggles. All interested parties should email bwog@columbia.edu to sign up yourselves or your friends. We’ll provide the food and drink, you bring sportsmanship and good cheer.  Also, on Saturday in the Wien […]

Satow Room Bureau Chief  Martha Turewicz reports back from last night’s CCSC meetings. Spoiler alert: Calvin Sun and Lindsey Lazopoulos hotly debate a theoretical photograph of Michelle Diamond theoretically shotgunning a beer.  The first thing I noticed at the meeting last night was that the audience was packed, since all the CCSC candidates were obligated […]

DJ Tanner, the Pike-based hip-hop group comprised of Peter Capraro SEAS ’09 and Michael Kosdan SEAS ’09, has just released “The Experience,” in which DJ T thoroughly reps Krebs and company, citing, among other things, their fresh tattoos and an ability to rock gold hearts like ice cubes. While you can hear the tune here, […]

This just in: Colin Drummond’s CC ’09 Campaign will use 10% fewer posters after promising a poster-less campaign.  This is coming after Mark Johnson, current CC ’09 Vice President, submitted a rules violation due to early publication of this website.  The Elections Board felt that the violation was “not malicious, intentional, or fundamentally unfair,” so […]

Today we saw our share of CCSC election controversy, but the E-board race has not been stirred too much.  Now that policy can be discussed, however, more substance has emerged from the Krebs and Damooei camps.  Damooei seems to have taken the lead in the multimedia department, already having released five videos on Youtube.  Expect […]
