Bwog has compiled just a few of the many times our former chronically online president fired off 280 characters about our beloved school.

Time to choose a new favorite social media platform.

An introduction to the micro (and macro) celebrities next door.

The government may be shut down, but America’s ability to be awesome at sports hasn’t faltered.  We beat a team of international players in golf’s President’s Cup for the eighth time this year.  America!!!!!  (BBC) According to the New York Times, the Twitter bio is “a postmodern artform” whose master-guru is Hillary Clinton.
