Columbians rejoice! Our beloved “Roar, Lion, Roar” will make its inaugural appearance at the Treelighting Ceremony in the form of…a rendition competition! Now you—yes, you—have the chance to perform in front of hundreds of your fellow classmates, proudly roaring as everyone else mumbles along in unison. Feel free to let loose your own take on […]
If you’re returning to campus after a fall break filled with family, hometown friends, and studying lazing around in bed, you’ll notice that Facilities has started to install lights on the College Walk trees. Stay tuned for an announcement for the tree-lighting ceremony in a week or so. The lights are actually lit before the […]
During the tree-lighting ceremony last Thursday on College Walk, our darn-diddley Dean added to the College’s finals-burden by announcing a little extra-curricular pop quiz. Though the quiz is merely a pesky distraction for our more SEAS-minded peers, Bwog is skittish (and uncomfortably reminded of consulting interviews). The Dean, however, says it’s something technical yet accessible. […]
The annual tree-lighting ceremony was yesterday evening, and for those of you who missed it, sassy cider-sipper Julia Goodman was on the scene. Last night, we got a pleasant reminder that the holidays are quickly approaching. Taking a break from rabid finals studying, I joined what looked to be the majority of the student population […]
Trim up the trees with Christmas stuff Like bingle balls, and whofoo fluff Trim up the town with goowho gums and bizilbix and wums – Doctor Seuss It’s time again for Columbia’s most festive tradition, the Tree Lighting Ceremony! Leave your dark miserable studying and revel in our campus’s wintery beauty. From the Facebook event: […]
This week we couldn’t send a Bwogger to the ESC meeting, but an inside source has sent us the minutes. Here are the highlights: The ESC’s new website’s domain, www.columbiaesc.com, has been purchased. ESC hopes to have a temporary test website up by the end of the week. Student government is still fighting for CUArts […]
Engineers have governments too! They’re just like you, except they’re engineers. Here to open your eyes as to this week’s meeting is Bwog’s report, by constant correspondent Aria Sharma: Dean Goldfarb, Interim Dean of SEAS, was present at this week’s meeting to discuss the state of the school, which can pretty much be described as […]
As always, our intrepid investigator Aria Sharma went to this week’s Engineering Student Council meeting. Here is her report: This week’s meeting was off to a robust start after a rather long break with hurricanes and elections and such. Dean Kromm visited ESC to discuss the plans for the Convent residential living space. Aside from […]
Don’t forget to head outside into the winter chill and listen to Columbia’s many a cappella groups sing and faculty and students speak at the annual Yule Log Ceremony, taking place from 6 to 7 pm on college walk. At 7 pm, the tree lights go up during the Tree Lighting Ceremony. Head back into […]
From the largest interdisciplinary fortress to the tiniest of urban meadows, no news is irrelevant. It’s about the bigger picture. A broken chain has been spotted on Low Plaza, trespass while you can! There is construction going on outside Nussbaum & Wu, so there is no outside seating (perhaps irrelevant in these current climes) Butler […]
With special guests Nuts 4 Nuts and (for the first time ever) Dean Moody-Adams, Sarah Camiscoli reports that this year’s Tree Lighting was a peaceful moment amidst a time of chaos for students who could make the time to attend. Once the a cappella Christmas carols were over and the high quality chocolate chip cookies […]
Yes, tonight is a night unlike all other nights — it’s the Tree Lighting and Yule Log Ceremonies! A school event blissfully bereft of refrains of “Roar, Lions, Roar!”, it will feature a capella performances, a chance to see Dean Moody Adams in the flesh, and free hot chocolate and apple cider aplenty. Moody-Adams has […]
David Hu sent in this picture, showing the newly-decorated trees already illuminated, quite a bit earlier than the proposed date for the tree-lighting ceremony, reported to be 6pm on December 1st. Avoid College Walk if you don’t want the surprise to be ruined!
Much to see on and near College Walk today: first, Dessert Truck Stalking bureau chief Eliza Shapiro notes that the Van Leeuween “artisan” ice cream truck (at right) is outside the gates. Meanwhile, on campus, Bright Lights bureau chief Jon Hill spotted the first strings of Christmas lights being put up ahead of Tree Lighting […]
Holiday merrymakers braved the drizzle this evening to drink hot chocolate, listen to a capella, and bask in the warmth of Austin Quigley’s valedictory address. The departing dean – who said he was looking forward to teaching next semester – waxed eloquent about the meaning of holiday time as a period of renewal, and a […]
