A new and improved Broadway Hall? Read to find out!

For everyone who does not go to floor 15 and wants to know about the full experience. 

A thoughtful collection of conspiracy theories on what is going on in the Barnumbia broken elevators! Could Hilary Clinton be hiding in the Lerner one? Or is your lost key card from freshman year just chilling out in Hartley’s broken elevator?

Located conveniently atop our favorite bagel and dumpling restaurant, 600 West 113th Street, better known as “Nuss,” gives you a taste of the sweet suite life.

An effusion of fancy . . .

If you’ve waltzed into Carman any time in the past few weeks, you’ve probably noticed that the elevators are pretty fucked up. And we’re pretty tired of it. So we decided it was high time for a callout… Over the weekend, I was sitting in my Carman suite watching Netflix and enjoying a breezy afternoon. […]

Just in case you needed another reason to hate hipsters.

Dear Bwog, Before I came to Columbia, I never realized how awkward elevator rides are.

Earlier this evening, and sporadically throughout the day, the East Campus elevators–yes, those shiny new transport cells–stood frozen in place for hours on end, forcing residents moving in to shlep their stuff up dozens of flights of stairs. According to the security guard on duty, a big moving bin had slammed into one of the […]

Frustrated with the slow progress of the Manhattanville expansion, Columbia instead decided to dedicate its resources towards constructing a magical Bridge to Terebithia, and annex a SUNY that doesn’t exist. Hurrah! Or maybe somebody has a plaque maker, a sense of humor and a little too much time on his/her hands. Thanks to Jonathan Bell for […]
