Which plants will grow in an office under bad lighting?

A tiny square cubical.

A computer screen.

A buzzing flourescent light hovering above and no window close by. Only the high ups get window desks.

What plants will survive under such harsh living conditions? Can I get a desk lamp of any kind that will improve the lighting situation?

The flourescent light should be plenty of light for a plant. Ivy is a good plant and there are others. You might choose one from the other answer that listed more plants.
Reply:Ivy grows well, as does sanseveria ("mother-in-law's tongue" or "snake plant"). Spathiphyllum (peace lily) does nicely if you give it plenty of humidity. If you have a fluorescent desk lamp where you can put a grow-light, you can grow African violets too.
Reply:Ok, I think I can help you with this one. Try a pothos plant (philodendron) I'll give you links to check out when I'm thru answering this. Also, most philodendrons do well under poor conditions, at least mine do. A peace lily doesn't require much sunlight, is beautiful, but is kind of on the large side for a very small cubical. Chinese Evergreens are also beautiful and can do well under low light. I'll be back with links.
