An anonymous tipster spotted the pictured stack of books in the Butler computer lab. “If only my finals were this interesting!” he laments.  The books include: Cannabis Culture Marijuana Marijuana-The New Prohibition Sexual Power of Marijuana Man and Marijuana Marihuana Reconsidered Marihuana Papers Bitter Pill Birth Control From Private Vice to Public Virtue New Concepts […]

Bwog ventured into the dark heart of Butler to snap some photos of the most lived-in cubicles, desks, and chairs. Columbia, what we saw, it frightened us: A Red Bull bottle converted into a flower vase for a single dying rose, sheets and sheets of notebook paper used as a make-shift gum cemetery, more of […]

In about a week, when we can barely even see the unfinished papers and problem sets behind the stacks of Redbull and tissues, Bwog will invite you to participate in the traditional finals week Primal Scream.  But this is not a time for that. This is a time to find great comfort in a class-free […]

A bit of belated news (as Bwog staff members also must make journeys to their respective motherlands), but it seems that there has been an accident! As for the “details to follow,” as far as we know they haven’t quite followed yet, although such incidents on the last day of finals do create potential imagined […]

BWOG IS STRESSED SHOUT IT FROM THE ROOFTOPS 12:00 MIDNIGHT ANIMAL NOISES WELCOME

Overheard in Butler: Woman A, shaking an empty Red Bull can, to random stranger at our table: “Excuse me, how many of these can I drink before I die?” Woman B: “I don’t know, three or four?” Woman A, still holding Red Bull can, to man next to woman B “Hey, how many of these […]

Finals are officially over.  You are done, done and done — even those of you in Intro to Accounting & Finance, Jazz Improvisation, and one section of General Physics II (the only Thursday 7-10 exams).   Congrats.  Go do something really fun. UPDATE: Some SEAS finals tomorrow? Bwog is doubly sorry.

Last night, tipster Ryan Withall recommended checking out 317 Hamilton, where, he wrote, students had gone a bit crazy on the blackboard during what must have been an intense study session. Curious, Bwog took a break from work and headed over, to find a creepy crop circle of chairs, arranged in the shape of a […]

Says the Primal Scream. Bwog concurs.

Need a finals boost? Be adventurous. Bwog freelancer Armin Rosen explores your options. If having to wake up at 8:30 in the morning four days a week for the past three months has taught me anything, it’s that getting through college is going to require some serious drug abuse. And if this fairly commonsensical realization […]

This week on Cooking with Bwog we bring you a special two-week grocery list and meal plan. Use it well. If you have ideas to add variety, please add them to the comment thread. The Menu Breakfast Oatmeal with raisins, brown sugar, milk, fresh fruit Cereal with milk and bananas Toast with peanut butter and […]

Bwog isn’t sure whether Barnard kids are all in Butler or whether they just don’t study, but it’s empty as a crypt over at Barnard’s Lehman library, and Bwog is lonely. Having trouble finding a seat for finals? Take a walk across the street! Not as many hook up nooks, but also not as many […]

We have only our instincts. This we call the delivery of events, a fragile striking, unexpected, a poison, more a poison, the blade and the poison, and the sound of keys. There is no possibility of downfall.

Leo Gertsenshteyn reports: A man in a banana costume just ran screaming through 209 Butler. Luckily, it has promptly returned to being an uneventful night of studying and NSA sex in the stacks. And overheard in Butler Cafe: Girl: Oh guess what! I’m soooo excited! I got my books on Mesopotamia today! Guy: Oh, cool. […]

Finals week, angry grad students, and vaguely racist comments do not a pretty picture make. According to an anonymous tipster, Russell BRickford, a TA for Barnard’s American Civilization Since the Civil War class, objected to a statement written by one student in the course’s final exam yesterday. And so e-mailed the entire class about it. […]
