Some got to throw out buzzwords like “privilege,” “problematic,” and “cisnormative” to their MeeMaws. Others stayed on campus and feasted on the fruits of their own labor (hopefully better than last year). Wherever your Thanksgiving took you, we hope you stuffed yourself on delicious food. You have the following to be thankful for:

In case you’re staying on campus this turkey day, there’s always Westside around for your food-coma needs. Bwog sent Senior Staff Writer Alexander Pines to scope out this year’s offerings.  Not going to lie, I was expecting something weirder out of the place that brought me “Oreos Pancakes” (in other words, soggy oreos covered in […]

If you’re finally at home (or stuck on campus) and the Cowboys vs. Redskins game hasn’t exactly done much to provoke the Thanksgiving spirit, it’s good to know that there’s still something to be thankful for… Thanksgiving feasts!  Let the tryptophan commence!

The service will set you up with two other […]

Welcome back from Thanksgiving Break—if you were one of the fortunate Columbians who left campus, that is. If you weren’t, you probably tried to steer clear of Butler. But these guys didn’t; join hands with Amateur Expert Anthropologist Claire Sabel as she paints a very pretty picture of The Long Weekender.  Unable to return home for the […]

We asked, and you delivered. Although you won’t be around home long enough to enjoy a full week of Thanksgiving leftovers, we imagine that a gallery of festive and appetizing spreads will inspire the holiday spirit to linger just a little bit longer. Moveable feast/ food porn below:

As per tradition, we put our heads (see: gmail accounts) together and compiled this long list of the things/people/places/things/snow penises for which we are most thankful. Contest, corroborate, or add your own in the comments. It’s that time of the year where we’re allowed to get a little corny (<– Thanksgiving pun), so on that note, […]

Dean Peter Awn sent out this email to all GS students earlier today, subject line: “Meleagris Gallopavo.” (That’s the Wild Turkey, to you plebs) If this (or this) doesn’t get you in the mood for Thanksgiving, we don’t know what will. Dear Students, They cluck, they flail, they fold their necks back to catch the […]

Thanksgiving is almost here! For many returning home, it means seeing extended family, stuffing themselves with food, and football. For others, it involves breaking up with their significant other and/or Black Friday shopping. But, if you’re still stuck on campus for the next four days, fear not. Your friends (and Dining) may have abandoned you, […]

A New York resident was arrested yesterday and charged with planning to build and detonate bombs across the city. (NYTimes) They squabbled and squawked, but the congressional supercommittee charged with resolving the debt crisis just couldn’t do it. Even after they asked for an extension from their UWriting Professor President. (Bloomberg) Occypy Wall Street, after […]
