Lerner 6 being developed. No word on whether the new floor will have a Second Avenue Subway stop. Take Back the Night: Now with men. Floridita is slightly more doomed than usual. Nobody talking about 1968. (OK, except this column.) More CCSC complaints. Well, those are a little more normal.

  QuickFed? QuickSpec! Featuring: ….a Juicy Campus op-ed …a Manhattanville shout-out  …Barnard stereotypes  …an eerily accurate staff editorial  Plus bonus Fed non-fiction! (We think?)  

In case you didn’t hear about the vag being built on Barnard’s campus… And in case you didn’t hear about former SIPA Dean Lisa Anderson moving to Egypt Columbia was great, pre-hippies Did you know they cut up women in Tibet for sport? Good thing China’s there to keep them in line The student body […]

Apparently, more “devils” upheld Niko’s impeachment. The language of the Devil is…meta! Hopefully, that can be exorcised with some straight-edged journalism. Poeticus Diabolus. Hell freezes over: SEAS kids experience technical delays.

Columbia Ping-Pong goes to the Midwest. Next stop: Beijing? No. If an editorial doesn’t express an opinion or make a point, is it still an editorial? No. Columbia student locates Brooklyn, but is it “the new Broadway?” No. Will any Columbia student go to this Soho restaurant for $15 Vietnamese tapas? Sigh. A White House […]

How will Minghui Yu’s death be commemorated? Swastika: symbol of hate or symbol of love? Are education and cash incentives mutually exclusive? How on earth do I pay my taxes? But seriously, can I live with myself if I vote for the cowboy hat party? …and finally, the return of Spec’s housing blog, The Shaft. […]

Concerned GSSC members impeach their boss, who, as Bwog reported last night, is concerned that the whole thing was a farce Concerned Speccie pontificates about the provenance of the swastika  When there are heating problems in dorms, concerned editorial board suggests taking off all your clothes Manhattanville expansion will cause more asthma, concerned environmental groups […]

For those still pondering how to make it public, Spec suggests communication! Unveiled: the next tourist trap will be the George Washington Memorial…Lavatory? ESC Candidates make their platforms public so that you can’t vote for them. Next year, a large particle accelerator will be made public and according to a Princeton professor, “might make dragons […]

Ariel Hudes pluralizes “Roar, Lion, Roar“. And, for that matter, uses it in a column. In all caps. As the last line. “Street names [sic] carved by old cow trails.” Talking about… Boston? London? Oh, um, Staten Island. Cow trails? I bet that fact came from a book. Spec boldly asks a question nobody has […]

6,000-strong superclass vs. the rest of us The Abyssinian Development Corp. is mean to little old ladies with doctor’s appointments Student councilmen (promise to) wrassle 7% from the cost of your packaged Lit Hum and CC book sets Quirky DJs decimate listening audience Art tussles with hate, apathy 

Did a friend of TC professor Madonna Constantine hang the noose on her door?  Atlas Shrugged is the second-most influential book ever; an April Fool’s Day column, a day late? Would “impeachment circus” be the correct term? How about “kerfuffle”? Is a hyphen to thank for the sky-high levels of school spirit and sense of […]

The topics for these opinions were chosen specifically because they were not timely.  Something tells Bwog that Aristotle would not have enjoyed his name next to this picture. We’re all part of Columbia!  Yay! Wait up guys, John Adams was President?  Somebody should publicize this fact on an HBO miniseries!  The words of a sage: […]

Columbia loses sight of its friendship with Floridita, suddenly demands $128,000. The university then promptly forgets to make sure people can use its housing lottery software. Drunkenly sketching on a bar napkin, Columbia proposes a seven block long, seven-story underground fortress, and tells Nick Sprayregen to, quote, “shut up.” It then appears to call Barnard […]

For people to learn the name of the chancellor of the largest school system in the country For ’68 fever to wear off. Well, maybe the first event of the season is a little early for that. For the end of journalism For the epic flooding of Manhattan For all of the above to seep […]

A conspicuously absent Samantha “Powers” piece (see right) …followed by a full article about Samantha Power. Perhaps Powers and Power are the same person?  Even more catching up with Kali, the Subway Hero  Rejoice! Real vendors now accepting fake money That One Time Rod Stewart Didn’t Suck: A Retrospective  Contrary to scientific evidence, less money […]
