Last week, first-years received an email from AlcoholEdu announcing a contest. Alcohol Edu, always on top of the latest zeitgeist-y cultural references asked: "Is college really like Old School or Animal House?" Responses could take any form of expression (hear that, you creative types?) from essays to drawings to videos.

Bwog found this quite coincidental, as we have actually decided to hold the exact same contest. Is college really the drunken, orgiastic clusterfuck of attractive people and endless parties that the teenagers in the Animal House film tell us it is? Well, of course! But we want to know why. Send photoshopped creations, videos, songs, essays, haikus and the like to bwog@columbia.edu by this Sunday at midnight. The best will be posted and subsequent voting will ensue—unless you guys are like, too waaaasted. Bwogger Justin Vlasits' submission hangs proudly above.



Living on campus for the entire summer to organize a week of events (a big job, Bwog knows) leads to time spent on some odd activities. Like composing the bulk of an e-mail to OLs in rhyming couplets. Read the full update-in-verse after the jump.

Also, bet you didn't know this before you signed up: it's "strongly recommended" that all OLs complete the first section of alcohol.edu (for out-of-touch upper classmen: that's the online course that tells you how to drink responsibly in college) before they get back on campus in August. Presumably so they can tell freshies how best to use the course for drinking games.
