Hungry for seafood on a college budget? The prospect of Morton Williams make you ill? Bwog correspondent David Iscoe has found a solution in the form of the New Young Fish Market.   The first time I saw the New Young Fish Market, I thought the sign said “Neil Young Fish Market,” but the real […]

Barnard, CCSC and Spec may entice their most willing and bored with chances to win a free iPod for participating in online surveys. But usually chances are low, and who wants to spend five minutes towards an iPod that you might not even win? Not SEAS!  SEAS students, when they participate in the deliciously-acronymed APPLES […]

For those of you who simply cannot wait for Assassins, on October 11th, SEAS is organizing a giant game on Manhunt throughout the entire campus. Registration is online, natch. That should satisfy any competitive blood-lust until spring.

According to the latest breaking news from the Spec, President Bollinger announced today that Thomas Alva Edison Professor of Applied Physics Gerald Navratil will serve as interim dean of SEAS for the 2007-2008 school year. Navratil has served on Columbia’s faculty since 1977 and specializes in plasma physics. He is currently being funded by the […]

It’s official! SEAS Dean Galil brings good tidings of the engineering school’s class day speaker in the latest Zvi-mail, as follows: Hi All, It is with great enthusiasm that I share with you the following news. This year’s Class Day speaker will be the world famous architect/civil-engineer/artist  Santiago Calatrava. He has designed the Transportation Hub […]

Sort of.  ESC online voting started at midnight, and SEAS kids have until 6:00 PM on Tuesday to register their choices for Academic Affairs, Alumni Affairs/Professional Development, and Student Services Representative–all the other offices are uncontested. But one-party races do make for fun campaign speeches, and courtesy of ESC’s web wizardry, you can watch them […]

Dear SEAS: Here are the candidates for the ESC e-board, who will fight it out tonight at 9PM in the Satow Room. You won’t get to vote on them, but at least you know who might become your quasi-elected leaders. President: Eash Cumarasamy and Liz Strauss Secretary: Erin Svokos and Krissie Zambrano Vice President Intergroup: […]

E-Weeks, the celebration of everything Engineering at Columbia, concluded tonight with a Battle of the Bands and a Mr. and Ms. SEAS pageant, featuring performances by The Folk, Charlie Foxtrot, The Shake, Party for Mojo, and DJ Tanner.  In the running for Mr. SEAS were Sumeet Shah, Nat Gale, Robert Sokola, and Robert Frawley while […]

E-weeks (re-christened Zvi-Weeks in honor of SEAS’ imminently departing leader) are ending today with an, er, bang: a Mr. and Ms. SEAS contest, complete with trivia and a talent portion. Four young gentlemen and lady engineers will compete for their respective titles, under the watchful eye of a cardboard Zvi Galil (seems he’s been elevated […]

CCSC elections aren’t the only democratic contest going on this month–starting at 11:00 PM on Monday, anyone who wants to run for Engineering Student Council executive board positions can nominate themselves by e-mail. But don’t start practicing your flesh pressing and baby kissing: all you have to do is appeal to a small fraction of […]

Two Bwoggers sent in this photo of the mysterious (and large) SOS in the South Lawn snow, taken earlier today from the 7th floor of Hamilton. What could have possibly caused someone to create the massive distress signal? Could it have been due to some late-night shipwreck, leaving the castaways no option but to carve […]

Julia Kite, an urban studies major (?), sent this one in to give SEAS students and science majors one last thrill before midterms. Bwog thinks SEAS guys and gals are probably too jaded to enjoy this, but if you’re not at least one iota thrilled (or made slightly nauseated) by this, there’s probably something wrong […]

While most of us are still trapped in the vortex of thrice-extended overdue papers, Butler pathogen infestations, and chronic Red Bull overconsumption, many eager SEAS engineerlings have written to remind the Columbia community that it’s not too early to plan our post-exam exodi to the airport, train station, or, for those who made a truly daring college […]

A tipster wrote in to alert Bwog to an apparent SEAS conspiracy brewing at Google Labs. The image of Columbia’s campus on Google Maps is overlaid by “Columbia Univ – School of Engineering” while “Columbia University” is confined to 120th & Broadway, somewhere in the neighborhood of Pupin. We knew SEAS had been stepping into […]

The November issue of the Fed is now online. Save the print copy for appropriate bathroom reading. Hey kids! Let’s make fun of English majors, decades later, in the vain hopes of avoiding their fate!   But SEAS kids, not to worry! Steve Wozniak, co-founder of the Apple Computer, speaks out on segway polo, his genius, […]
