B-School party outside Schermerhorn! Empanadas, asparagus in filo, tons of alcohol, fancy waiters, lots of ambition. There are legitimate ropes and officious B-school employees telling you not to eat the food. So just walk around those officious employees and take the food.

A few points of note from today’s lovely Labor Day. Bwog spent $7 on a bagel and orange juice at Nussbaum this morning, and remembered how our money goes so quickly here. Dinner at Mel’s Burger Bar is 10% off tonight and tomorrow with a Columbia/Barnard ID. We also hear that Hewitt isn’t swiping IDs […]

Look at how we caught your eye with that headline! Remember that sub-plot in V116 about Dean “Double D” Denburg’s Big Bear/Little Bear initiative? The one where DD matched Barnard first-years and upperclassmen in a binding friendship contract and Jenny couldn’t sneak out and meet Yonatan at 1020? That sucked for both of them, but […]

We’ve been reading the comments, and counting the thumbs down. You’re stressed.  We understand. And we want to help. Today, starting at 4 PM outside Butler, Bwog will inaugurate its Bitch Box. The internet is a great place to complain, but bitching in real life is much more satisfying…especially when there’s free comfort food. Butler […]

As we type! Baked ziti, mac&cheese, salad and a Wii. Third floor of Hillel, which is on 115th between Broadway and Riverside, accross from Schapiro.

Professor Hamid Dabashi is hosting a review session about Hegel for CC sophomores and anyone else interested in chatting with CC sophomores about Hegel today, from 2-3:30, in Hamilton (room unannounced, look for signs in the lobby). The Facebook event’s wall doth runneth over with other semi-rhyming philosopher/food combinations. Bwog likes “Machiavelli and vermicelli”; “Oreos […]

The class councils of 2013 are holding an event tonight for freshmen (enjoy that status while it still lasts!) in Lerner Cinema where they will have 400 White Castle burgers, pizza, and other food for free. The event starts at 8 pm, and they will be handing out LitHum study guides to the first 50 […]

As part of their SEAS the Day! celebrations, ESC is giving away free burgers and T-Shirts in Lerner Piano Lounge today from 12 pm – 2 pm (the location was moved due to rain). Carpe them while they last! Update: CPU is also giving away free HamDel sandwiches on Lerner Ramps from 12 pm – […]

Studying makes you tired—and hungry! Come to the Lerner Piano Lounge from 5 to 7 and distract yourself from scary thoughts of impending finals by gazing at/consuming an array of tasty treats.
