Walking by the GBC after class yesterday, we saw something strange and out of place (even by Berkeley standards): bubbles in our favorite fountain. We’re not just talking a few measly pockets of air, but full on foam taking over the entire thing! It was a veritable bubble bath. The only things Read More…
It’s that time of year again, when your dorm RAs start reminding you that they’re kicking you out the day after finals finish and landlords rent out the apartment you haven’t even found a replacement for yet. Even if you haven’t figured out where you’re living next year, chances are Read More…
If you haven’t seen it yet, there is a rock-climbing wall set up on upper Sproul for our climbing pleasure right in front of the GBC. Thanks to ASUC elections we’ve all seen Sproul get a little crazy this week, even crazier than usual. But not only are candidates getting their Read More…
With the ASUC election almost here, you may be wondering what you’re in for. We’ve told you different advertising methods campaigners have up their sleeves, but the Clog thought you may be curious about how exactly these renowned friend-makers converse with fellow students (voters).

Walking down Bowditch this week after a long day of classes, we came across this little piece of art/advertising. This particular gem was informing us of the Perspectives showcase coming up. There’s nothing new in the method — clubs and groups chalk all the time to get their messages out there. Read More…
Everyone’s favorite confusing, invented time-shift is here again: Daylight Savings. Except this time no one was able to celebrate the illusion of adding an hour to their day. When the clocks changed at 2 a.m. this morning, they hacked off an hour of our busy schedules instead. Now we’ve got Read More…
The Clog recently learned a few things about exactly how much money UC Berkeley alumni can make. This gives us a little hope for the future of our bank accounts, but we still think it’s insane. Apparently we were recently ranked the 14th-highest university from around the world to churn Read More…
It’s every UC Berkeley student’s favorite time of year again: the awe-inspiring, time-consuming craziness of ASUC elections! Student Action has yet to announce its slate, but CalSERVE and SQUELCH! have announced their executive candidates. Oh boy, let the (hunger) games begin! Election season here seems to involve even more mayhem than Read More…
