There's a "Welcome Back SEAS"-themed ice cream social/study break happening now in Lerner's ramp lounge. There are various flavors of ice cream, plus the sprinkles and chocolate sauce you were hoping for.
And then outside this thing there is a table with Starbucks coffee, in addition to milk and sugar. It's not free -- the coffee-providing group is asking for donations for a health clinic in Haiti -- but it's for a good cause!

Oh hooray, it's time for a Homemade Ice Cream Sandwich Study Break, courtesy of Students For Substance Free Space.
It's happening now until 8 PM in the first floor suite of McBain. There will also be free t-shirts, in case you stain the one you were wearing with a delicious homemade ice cream sandwich.

How to lose friends and alienate people
Oh Sarah Palin, is there anything to which you are not tangentially relevant?
The first of a two-part series on truck-based dessert foods.
Reading doesn't count unless someone sees you doing it.
Why try to forget about all the fun stuff you missed out on when you could relive the disappointment?

Things are looking up! The treachery of finals week is drawing to a closeâ€"despite some Butler settlements indicating the contrary. Plus, tipster Keith Leung just emailed to let us know that Haagen Dasz is giving away free scoops of their new ice-cream flavor (Vanilla Honey Bee) from now until 8 PM. Leung has also assuaged any worries of hellishly long waits, explaining that "the line was around 10 people, but they're basically just scooping ice-cream for people without asking any questions, so the wait was like 2 minutes."

Bwog contributor Alex Weinberg just frantically passed along the following tip:
"There is a huge amount of ice cream in the Wallach Lounge and they are begging people to come eat it or steal it. I walked away with a box of ice cream sandwiches.
TIME IS TICKING"
And for those of you who foolishly doubt that ice cream can constitute dinner, Cliff Massey wants you to know that CCSC will be offering free Havana Central food from 9 PM - 10:30 PM in room C555 in Lerner. Alternately, Bwog suggests freezing your findings from Wallach and saving them for after dinner.

A tipster alumnus/ice cream enthusiast brings the following to Bwog's attention: In honor of the ice cream chain's 30th birthday, today is free cone day at Ben & Jerry's.
Luckily, Columbia is only ten or so blocks away for one of four Ben & Jerry's Manhattan locations.

A reminder to ice cream-enthusiasts that today (until 2:30 PM) CU Snacks is holding a free Ben & Jerry's tasting on the first floor of Lerner. "We are *literally* handing out 42 pints of Ben & Jerry's, hoping only that you'll help finish it before it melts," the email reads. Emphasis theirs, excitement everyone's.

Bwog's new Satow Room bureau chief Martha Turewicz reports on last night's meeting.
As far as CCSC meetings go, some are pretty unremarkable. But others, like last night's, stand out as veritable gems, with VP of Campus Life Lindsey Lazopoulos as the star of the show, proffering bon mots left, right and center.
To wit: Student council is putting a "Cherry on Top" with a study break this coming weekend featuring discounted JJ's ice cream. Lazopoulos delved into the heart of the matter: "Will they have chocolate?"
Likewise, to Lazopoulos's relief, John Jay's new chef will be serving up new sustainable sea food (read: salmon) once a month. "No more swordfish!" she opined.

Put a pen in your shirt pocket, strap on a laptop case, and head over to the B-School lobby where the new E-board is doling out the B&J -- there's something like 8 flavors to choose from! This agonized Bwog editor broke Passover for the Oatmeal Cookie Crunch.
Also, free hot dogs on Low Steps, courtesy of CCSC--it's a College Days thing, so they're also selling nifty blue shirts featuring PrezBo's benevolent visage, accented by a pink tie.
Hurry!

Praying with Lior an engrossing, wrenching and tender documentary introduces Lior Liebling, also called "the little rebbe." Lior has Down syndrome, and has spent his entire life praying with utter abandon. Is he a "spiritual genius" as many around him say? Or simply the vessel that contains everyone's unfulfilled wishes and expectations? Lior - whose name means "my light" - lost his mother at age six, and her words and spirit hover over the film. While everyone agrees Lior is closer to God, he's also a burden, a best friend, an inspiration, and an embarrassment, depending on which family member is speaking. As Lior approaches Bar Mitzvah, the Jewish coming-of-age ceremony different characters provides a window into life spent "praying with Lior."
Directed by Ilana Trachtman│Documentary│87-minutes
