The UPass is nothing but a distant memory at this point in the summer and you just can’t force yourself to dish out the $91 a month for a one-zone. That’s fine, because Vancouver is a Canadian hotspot for car sharing.

Summer school at UBC isn't all bad. Yes, you have to be indoors when it's absolutely gorgeous outside. However, you also get to study in the most aesthetically pleasing parts of campus that are finally absent of rain.
Lucky for you, UBC is one of the best places in Vancouver to play! With frequent lures, competitive gyms and dozens of PokéStops, you're well on your way to catching 'em all in no time. Here is what you need to know before you GO.
If you’re tired of the same old night out drinking at The Pit or partying at Koerner’s, check out some of these quirky spots around Vancouver where drinking is permitted and encouraged, but not the main event.
Judd Nelson, who many may know from ’80s classics such as The Breakfast Club or St. Elmo's Fire, is apparently cast in the film. So set stalking is slightly more acceptable this time around — 10 points to whoever blasts “Don't You” from a boombox.
The new bus stops include 44 Downtown and 84 VCC-Clark Station, and can take you on the express downtown and to Commercial Drive, respectively. This change will make the bus loop on Wesbrook Mall a little less hectic.
The AMS's bubble tea shop naming contest finished on June 28 and it's anyone's game to win. People were creative and clever, so naturally we combed through the submissions and came up with a list of the greatest hits.
1. Find The Ubyssey’s office 2. Beat an editor at Smash Bros. in The Ubyssey’s office 3. Write for The Ubyssey. 4. Name a squirrel 5. Fight a squirrel 6. Take a nap at the UBC Aquatic Centre 7. Swim in the fountain 8. Piss in the fountain
The UBC Housing website has fun descriptive words like “extraordinary experience” and “study-oriented atmosphere.” But what does that even mean? (The correct answer is nobody knows what it means, but it’s provocative — it gets the people going.)
Don't limit yourself to the coffee at Starbucks or Blenz — take a peek at Vancouver’s cafe gentrification first hand. Here are some establishments that will make you re-evaluate the term “pretentious hipster.”
He's stylish, he's hip and he's ours now. He's the president UBC needs, but not the one it deserves right now. Perhaps he will usher in a new age of transparency and stable employment at UBC — dare I coin the phrase “The Santaissance”?
Now that it’s finally warm in Vancouver and classes are out — with exception to the dedicated summer students — it’s time to relax with an ice cold brew. Preferably on a patio. Overlooking the ocean. And mountains.
Congratulations on being accepted to UBC! Now that you’ve accepted your offer of admission, it’s only right for UBC to throw you into probably one of the most confusing things you’ll ever do in your years here — registering for courses.
On Wednesdays, the farm journeys to the heart of campus and sets up vendor-style right outside the bookstore. Yesterday, they had a quaint little set up with radishes, strawberries, parsley, thyme and spinach to name just a few.
Have you heard? Some-tea-ng new is bubbling in the basement of the Nest. Hopefully that spectacular pun was a good indication that a bubble tea shop is set to replace Lowercase this summer — and the AMS is running a contest to name it.
