Dear Natalie, My roommate is being a total pain in my ass. He's inconsiderate, rude, has people over all the time without asking and leaves any room he enters a mess. It's a disaster zone in here and it's all his crap!

The university does not owe a fiduciary duty to its donors unless they are under the trust made beneficiaries. To make them beneficiaries would jeopardize the charitable status of their tax deduction.
My question is this: what is hate speech as visual imagery doing on a university campus? What right did the anti-abortion group who made these signs have to impose upon every viewer, every student, an active anti-Semitic and racist message?
When you mention genocide beside the picture of an aborted fetus at 24 weeks, you’re pretty much saying that someone who had a miscarriage is a murderer. The images that are being displayed are propaganda.
The notion that free speech is somehow okay, even if it compromises the safety of others, is a delusion. We pretend that violence must be physical. It doesn’t. Words and images are powerful and affect people's psyches — to deny that is ignorant.
For a large part of the student body, the AMS represents a slew of Facebook event notifications and little else — it can be hard to see the larger picture and even harder to imagine your place connecting with it.
Although there is a semblance of openness and inclusiveness on campus, that it doesn't extend to people on the right side of the political spectrum, socially or fiscally. Talks on campus deemed misogynistic [or] racist are quashed.
She keeps "accidentally" bumping into me in between classes, even though I know her classes aren't anywhere near mine. She keeps messaging my friends asking when we can all hang out. I've already told her we're done again and again...
UBC has about 50,000 students, so everyone contributing just $1 would bring in $50,000! This would exceed our goal five times over and for just a dollar. Our online campaign will finish at the end of March, so don’t wait!
Every few weeks, your student government spends a Wednesday night to talk about a bunch of things. In most cases, what we talk about won't affect a students’ day to day activity, but there are always a few tidbits that might interest you.
In an ideal world, you would donate to every cause that appeals to you. But in this world, we have a limit of time and money. So why should WUSC UBC dictate that you donate your limited money to them?
If you have ever watched a movie in the Norm or listened to live music at Koerner’s, then you have been lucky enough to experience the rich arts and culture on campus. However, most students don’t get a chance to see that due to a lack of support.
On the AMS elections voting site, after you’ve voted for all of the candidates you’ll notice some Tumblr blogs and other websites, mainly dedicated to providing blog-style elections coverage. Most of them are legit.
The AMS is endorsing a yes vote for most of the 2016 referendum questions currently open to students. Others have been more critical. We'll break down what each question means, and how we'll be voting.
This election features two powerhouse women who have given an incredible amount to students on this campus already, and who are capable of giving even more as president. With either candidate, the AMS and the student body would be in good hands.
