More time to Rage
New swipe system at East Campus might get you laid

As we were swiping into EC on this lonely, balmy evening, we were about to leave our Barnard friend at the door rather than sign her in. After all, we had no energy left after a day of Super Smash Brothers and White Russians. How could she expect us to know the current time, let alone write it down for her?
It was thanks to the security guard that our eyes opened to a revolutionary change to the guest sign-in system at East Campus. The guard now simply swipes the EC resident’s ID card, and then swipes the Barnard student’s ID card, and everything is gravy! It’s incredibly streamlined, so finally, EC no longer relies on the same sign-in system used at most Amish villages. As far as we know, at the moment, it only works for Columbia students signing in Barnard students. Regardless, rejoice!
HALLELUJAH!
Which one of you got laid?
Your title makes me wanna vom. Please change it. Why is Spectrum becoming Bwog??
the exact same thing. What the heck is up with making it seem as though Barnard girls are automatically sex objects for the sake of Columbia guys’ pleasure?
Yes, I know it’s a joke. But still, it’s problematic.
at the title.
GS too?
Does this mean I can go to Barnard dorms without being signed in?
Not yet :)
is incredibly offensive, whether or not it was meant to be. At the end of the day, these writers (Eli and Bob) are perpetuating stereotypes that ultimately hurt barnard-columbia interactions. Yes, it’s just a joke. However, I could make that argument for hundreds of thousands of offensive examples. It’s still offensive no matter how you slice it. Between this, the Barnard eCards article and the “barnard girls mad as hell” article (WE ARE WOMEN, NOT GIRLS) I’m beginning to suspect that those at the spec have no regards for their neighbors across the street, or for women in general.
The only way to end the sexism, misogyny, and mistreatment of women starts with changing your attitude. The ONLY way.
There’s a school across the street?
When all you have is a hammer, everyone looks like a misogynist pig.
How in the HELL was the Barnard eCard post offensive? It was written BY A BARNARD STUDENT. Wtf, seriously. Get over yourself.
(I am also a Barnard student, so don’t even go there.)
uh, couldn’t the swipe system also help get barnard girls laid because they have easier access to EC? it works both ways. don’t always assume it’s a slight when it isn’t.
this title is disgusting
barnard friend still had to get signed in.
