Canned Food Will Solve All Your Problems

NEW FIRST NATIONS LIASON
James Beck was unanimously elected as the First Nations Liaison in a recent CSU by-election. A total of 11 students voted in the election, which were held on November 9, 10 and 12. Instead of being held in the cafeteria, as the main elections are, the by-election was run through the CSU front office. The position had been vacant for almost one month, since Linda Epp resigned from the post on October 16.

WOMEN'S COLLECTIVE GETS CRAFTY
The women's collective will be holding an arts and crafts night to redecorate their lounge. Everyone is welcome to come help paint the windows, make collages, do origami to hang from the ceiling, or anything else they can think of to beautify the space. The event will take place on Tuesday December 1, from 4 until 7 pm. Students can drop in at any time, and are free to bring any crafting equipment they want. The collective will, however, supply all the necessary materials.

FOOD FOR FINES
Starting this week, you can work off your library fines with food donations instead of cash. One non-perishable item is good for two dollars worth of fines. Students can “pay off” a maximum of 20 dollars on their account through food donations. The campaign will continue until the last day of fall classes.

FOOD FOR COFFEE
The CSU is holding a food drive from November 24 to 26 in the Maple lounge. Between 11:30 am and 1 pm, any student to bring in non-perishable food items will receive a free cup of Starbucks coffee. Students are encouraged to bring their own reusable mugs.

FALL CONVOCATION
311 students will graduate this Fall semester at a ceremony on November 30. This is a relatively significant increase from last fall’s 270 graduates. The vast majority of these students are graduates of the business program, and the next largest group is fine and applied arts students. Graduates have until November 25 to secure tickets for their friends and family.
