Update: As of 11:56 pm, power is back. At 8:54 pm tonight, Bwog received a tip that the power in Wien had gone out. Skeptical, Bwog checked out of our 18th story EC window to see most lights in Wien on, indicating that the tipster was in error. Around 9:30, we received confirmation from the […]

A freshman emailed Bwog in the heat of his despair: “The living situation in Hartley, John Jay, and Wallach is becoming a huge problem. People sleep with fans next to their faces, wake up sweating, and have to take multiple showers per day. It’s even boiled down to people crashing in Carman just for the […]

This Saturday night, a Bwog correspondent was enjoying a wonderful dinner at Freda’s (109 and Columbus). It was a calm evening until a particularly loud comment from the table behind him caught his attention. “I am their campus rep, and I fucking hate them.” The unknown Columbia employee went on to talk for another 10 […]

We all have that one friend, that girl who keeps texting her boyfriend, tweeting her boyfriend, screen shotting posts by her boyfriend, and generally just scaring the crap out of her boyfriend. Now, there’s Overly Attached Computer. Remember that time you needed to bring a resume to that interview for that internship with that company […]

Bwog received an anonymous tip from an RA outlining the current procedure for investigating marijuana incidents: If an RA detects the smell of weed, or someone reports the smell to an RA, they call in another RA to confirm. Once two RAs have confirmed the smell, they will knock on the door in question If […]

If you live near the Broadway/115th intersection and are wondering what all the sirens are about, here’s the info. A taxi cab has collided with an NYPD vehicle and spun out of control and into the sidewalk in front of Morton Williams. It appears nobody is hurt.

This PSA is relevant only to those who have electronic swipe access to their room via CUID. If you access your room with a mechanical key or a Ving card (the one with holes in it), go find some other way to procrastinate.  Last week, housing sent out an e-mail to everyone who uses their […]

Do you live with all political feminists? Have you made a giant Harry-Potter themed map of Columbia? Does your suite have artistic domination over all of campus? If you’re not impressed by any of these situations, then we’re interested in you and your illustrious living companions! Bwog is bringing back Powersuites, aka the living lifestyles of […]

Hi, it’s us again. Just reminding you that the fair folks over at Carsplit are here to make your imminent (it’s closer than it feels like, we swear!) departure a tad more pleasant. If you’re heading to JFK, LaGuardia, or Newark to catch a flight in the next couple days, Carsplit offers you a chance […]

Scary stuff. Public Safety just warned the Columbia community that a little after midnight last night, two students were robbed while walking through Morningside Park. The two were approached by five or six males, one of which showed the students his gun. Here’s the full report: On April 30, 2012 at about 12:18 a.m. two […]

In case you haven’t stepped outside yet, it’s fucking cold.  Pull out your jacket, hat, and scarf.  Close your windows.  Put down that cute sundress.  Winter ain’t over yet, folks.

And by cooties, we mean it’s been hacked and infected by malware. Bwog is staffed by hopelessly computer-illiterate History majors, so we turned to one of our backend tech gurus to explain why you should stay the fuck away from WikiCU until told otherwise. It’s all about how dangerous malware could be. While most people will get […]

Update, 12:36 am: Facilities just sent out an email to the effect that there will be no heat in Wien tomorrow from 9 am to 1 pm. Don’t worry though! There’s “no immediate threat.” Full email after the jump. Because there’s a chance you won’t be able to tomorrow, unless you prefer strutting across campus in […]
