From 12 to 2 pm, head to the Lerner Piano Lounge for Midterms Study Break—Serious Games, a stress break with free sushi, music, and “pwn-ware” procured from the depths of JJ’s Place. Expect board games and Gamecubes, and maybe even a foosball table. Also, “ambient-dance worthy music.”

Need we say more? We’re doubtful, but will continue nonetheless. Tonight at 8 pm in Hamilton 602, the one and only Eric Foner will be doling out “Words of Wisdom” to the class of 2012 over some Baked By Melissa cupcakes. We can’t help but feel that March 6th is a bit premature for closing remarks, […]

Walk into Lerner today to be greeted by a smiling CSA Student Affairs representative toting an artfully arranged tray of !free! cookies. The wrappers display CSA success stories and fun facts, so you can feel good while you eat. Come get cookies on silver wooden platters and have Kev$ho smile at you!

Bwog understands it’s midterm season and even we get too lazy to make ourselves ramen every now and again, too. So, if you’re interested in some free grub, make your way over to the Broadway Room in Lerner at 6:15 pm where the Committee on Global Thought will be providing free pizza, refreshments and a […]

Spring Break approaches, and Bwog wants you to begin it with no regrets. Remember, the memories you make and the free food you eat tonight at 7 pm in Lerner SGO will have to sustain you for the next few weeks! Join us at our weekly meeting to make or take pitches, contribute to the […]

Bwog is no stranger to weird happenings on campus that end up going viral. This one, though, has us stumped. Is this some sort of Baccha90s guerilla marketing campaign? Who is the “ring pop princess” and what does she want from us? Is this her organization’s manifesto? What follows is all of the evidence we’ve managed to […]

If you were wondering what the commotion is on Low Plaza right now, it’s the Occupy CU Student Worker Picnic.  Today is the National Day of Action for Education and workers, students, professors, and community members are encouraged to voice concerns over the state of education.  Free pizza, bagels, and potluck are advertised for protestors. […]

Hey sophomores! It’s time to decide what you want to do with the rest of your life: major declaration is a scant, fleeting week away. To guide your trembling self down that road, CCSC ’14, CCE, and CSA are hosting the event “Major Discovery — From Classroom to Career in Columbia College” (did you get the […]

Confused about housing? Bwog has been actively working to dispel your fears, and so has the CCSC. Tonight at 7 pm in the McBain Lounge, CCSC ’14 will host Joyce Jackson, Head of Housing, to give a short overview of what sophomores can expect from the lottery, especially given the junior regroup, which is new this year. […]

Bwog cordially requests the pleasure of your company at its weekly meeting, to be held tonight, Sunday, February 26, 2012, at 7 pm in at the Lerner SGO. We won’t talk like that at the actual meeting (unless you’re into it). Come with all the ideas, friends, pitches, suggestions, and constructive criticism you can muster! (Snarky, […]

Columbia bureaucrats and student groups alike figured out long ago that the key to our collective heart is an overstuffed, all-American, oh-so-irresistible burrito. Tonight, look forward not only to free food, but also to the fantastic music of your peers at SEAS Battle of the Bands. All of this will take place in the mysterious […]

To celebrate the launch of their Fall 2011 edition, Helvidius, the Journal of Politics and Society, invites you to drop by Lerner 555 from 6:30 to 9:30 pm today to pick up a copy of the journal, eat free Westside, and hear the wise words of Joe Nocera. Nocera is the author of many-a-NYT op-ed, and […]

Kind of on the fence about lending a hand to your fellow man? Columbia Community Outreach wonders—would it help if you got a free tee-shirt? No? Uh… how about a pair of sunglasses? Free breakfast? Free pizza, you say? Done. CCO’s promo vid misses the mark—after all, nothing says, “I’m an altruist,” like a video […]

Whether you’re attracted by NPR‘s description of Pearl and the Beard as “folksy pop trio with a flair for lovely acoustic Americana” or intrigued by Daytrotter‘s more colorful report that listening to the band is like “looking into the piercing eyes of tumult,” Lerner is the place for you to be this lunch hour. The group […]

Don’t worry: you don’t have to be either a Barnard student or a senior to join tonight’s 2012 Senior Fund Kick-Off. There will be coffee, Baked By Melissa cupcakes (which, for those of you who don’t know, are tiny little bite sized clouds of magic) and the company of President Spar and the Senior Fund […]
