      Okay as much as I am not going to vote for this candidate, I actually think printing tickets for Mustang athletic games and distributing them would encourage students to GO to the games that are already free. And this coming from a person who has only been to football games during O-week as a frosh

      Well Jon, as impressed as I am that you feel I could safely aim for Mila Kunis, I'm still afraid I have to disagree with you. Yes, you do have the option of using the coffee bar as a location to make sandwiches. Yes, there is the option of adapting your operation to fit the criteria

      This is definitely something that the city of London needs considering how large the student population is. A policy like this really should have come into effect a long time ago. So many students come in and out of London each year, and we all need a good, safe and healthy place to live. Information

      Crystal, I'd like to address what you said. First of all, you are comparing Jen to yourself, someone who is legally deaf and blind. We both know that Jen does not have those symptoms. I have read her article in the Free Press and so I have a general idea of what she's

      Perhaps Jessica Biel is out of the question, but we would be happy to settle for Mila Kunis. What was proposed in the feasibility report was a foundation of a business. The great thing about a business solution to a problem is that it can change and adapt to a problem at a much faster pace

      Well,Jessica,I have a few things to say to you.... First of all,not all disabililites are visible,you can't tell by looking at a person what their disability is. We are NOT hypocrtical! We have dog guides for a reason! Our safety(being mine and the dog's) are paramount to those who aren't disabled. We are to automatically be given

    Editor mouths off on Meals for $3

    The meals for $3 (MF3) proposal — one of USC presidential candidate Marshall Goldfarb’s platform points — reminds me of my passion for Jessica Biel. It’s nothing more than a fantasy. Hurdle 1: The Western/USC Lease Agreement One of the perks of owning a university is the ability to create contracts with ... (more)

    Everyday struggles forgotten, left in the wake of “romantic” Haiti tragedy

    Tragedy, it seems, has become a significant part of what media outlets deem newsworthy. Such is the case with earthquake-ridden Haiti, or tsunami-laden Indonesia. According to most major news sources, an estimated 200,000 people are dead following the 7.0 magnitude earthquake in the Caribbean island, and it’s no wonder it has ... (more)

    Kids are dumb, their television is garbage

    I'm pretty sure everyone is thinking it, so I'll just go ahead and say it: kids these days are idiots. This is probably an opinion adopted by many people as they age, and it probably won't be long until I start telling you to get off my lawn. But before I ... (more)

    Student web designers get shafted

    The University Students’ Council wants a new website and they don’t want to pay a penny for it. They’re asking students to design websites and graphics for free. What does the lucky winner get? A gift basket, a reference letter and an honourarium. The whole thing is disguised as a contest. But ... (more)

    Banning laptops, more of a roadblock than a solution

    I’m writing this in class. As I type this column, students with an incredibly misjudged sense of entitlement are complaining about airport security — in a journalism class. I’m not missing much. But in some classes I’m forced to stow away possibly the greatest learning tool to enter the classroom since lined ... (more)

    Did you hear about that really bad hurricane?

    The following sounds like something that should be posted on the “Overheard at Western” Facebook group. This is what I heard last Thursday while standing in line at Tim’s for my morning coffee: Girl 1: Did you hear about that really bad hurricane? Girl 2: Oh yeah, that would suck so much ... (more)

    Less social, more science

    I am a science student. I pay my tuition so I can take courses that teach me how to do science things.  But in order to make me a well-rounded student, I'm required to take classes in arts and humanities, and social sciences as well.  Admittedly, I have a soft spot ... (more)

    Education is wasted on the young

    I remember the first day of kindergarten as if it were yesterday. I was sitting at the breakfast table the morning of, eating a bowl of Fruit Loops while explaining to my mom how “big school” was going to be the greatest thing to ever happen to me. I went into ... (more)

    It’s winter, not rocket science

    We live in Canada. It may seem like an obvious tidbit to point out but as I trudge around campus I feel like I’m the only one who remembers this fact. The truth of the matter is that here in Canada, it snows — and it snows a lot. Not to mention ... (more)

    Mature students most at risk as strike vote nears

    Tomorrow, college teachers across the province will vote on striking, with most indicators pointing to a likely “yes” vote. Much of the commentary surrounding this vote has focused on the impact a job action would have on the majority of college students — young adults in their late teens and early ... (more)
