y immediate predecessor as Waterloo’s president had this to say in welcoming you ail to the University-and I am glad to renew the welcome in exactly the same words. “Universities are like people - each has a character and a person&y that make it unique. Let me tell you a bit about the character of Waterloo as I have l experienced it. It is a serious place. People work hard here: faculty, staff and students. Universities partake of the character of their founding and surrounding communities. The serious work habits of the immigrant settlers of this region still inform the spirit of this institution. This doesnrt mean we don’t know how to relax and have fun, but there is no doubt that academic achievement takes precedence. It is a practical place. The most important ingredient in the shaping of UW was co-op education. It made us outward-looking: it connected us more intimately to the world around us. Anyone seeking an ivory tower (and there is nothing wrong with that) will not find it here. Not everyone at Waterloo is in co-operative education; in fact, almost half aren’t. But the spirit of applied studies affects all curricula. It is an ambitious place. We aspire to be the best overall university in Canada and to compete with the best in the world. We don’t say we are the best, but we don’t objectwhen othersdo. And it is true that Waterloo students win an astounding number of national and international aeards. It is a safe and caring place. Some of this is attributable to the surrounding community; some is attributable to the programs we have developed to make students aware of the respect they owe each other and the means avtilable to address problems as they arise. This is not to say that students do not need to take the same sensible precautions here that they would in any other environment. But we have as caring and capable a cadre of staff and faculty to provide help and guidance as you will find anywhere.” I hope you find this just as happy and stimulating a place as I know I will find it. Welcome.

t gives me great pleasure on behalf of the Council and the Citizens of the City of Waterloo to extend a warm welcome to all parents and first-year students to beautiful Waterloo. Our citizens are proud of the educational institutions, recreational facilities, parks and diverse industry available within our borders. A relatively high standard of living and low taxes reflect a combination of hard work and good fortune of our citizens. As you make Waterloo your home for the next few months, may I urge you to participate in our programs. We are especially proud of such facilities as the Manulife Indoor Sports and Soccer Centre and the Waterloo Recreation Complex, which incorporates the Clarica Arena and an attractive indoor p&l with many programs offered to ttre public. 1, in t-urn, offer rhe wxvicca of our staff and elected representatives to help assist you with any concerns or problems within our jurisdiction. I am very pleased you have chosen such an exceptional university to call home for the next few years and hope.? your stay with us is an enjoyable and _>::, memorable one. ‘7,.--.7,-r,fY.: r . -“X4. .‘:” ‘. :.

hroughout your stidies at the University of Waterloo, Cozoperative Education and Career Services (CECS) will be an important resource for you. CECS provides information and advice as you explore a vital aspect of your university education. Many of you were attracted to UW because of the excellent co-operative education program. The University of Waterloo was Canada’s first school to introduce co-op in 1957 and now runs the largest program in the world. CECS interacts with 12,000 representatives of hiring firms and or-

f you’re new tti the co-op process, it can be difficult to juggle the challenges of school and coop. How does it work? What do you do first? What does co-op entail? And what do you get out of it? There’s no arguing that the coop process can interfere with classes, assignments and exams. There is a fear, and it is not unfounded, that you’ll miss an important deadline. But the best way to avoid that situation is to plan for it. It’s better to think things through now, rather than realize too late that you’ve dropped your last r&urn6 package into the wrong bin. First, the Co-op department exists to help both students and employers find each other. The operative phrase here is uhelp studentsand employers to find each other,” not “place studentswithemploye~” You

benefits from having ‘w/Co-op’ on your degree. Most obvious is the work experience that you receive; it is relevant and amounts to about two years work experience. That’s something that most graduates cannot boast. Also, you will have a better understanding of what, exactly, it is that you want to do. You’ll have tried various aspects of different jobs in the field you’re studying and will be better informed about your job choices. You’ll also have the experience of job-hunting. You will at least have had to go through r&urn6 writing, interviews and job acceptances. Last, but not least, you’ll (hopefully) be able to pay some of your university bills with the money you make while working. --GregMorey CMGGHWdhltOT

However, you’re not entirely on your own, because the Co-op department does have the benefit of experience and knowledge. If something goes awry, the first place you should go is the Co-op Reception Desk at Needles Hall. The folks there are always knowledgeable. If the receptionist doesn’t, for some reason, have the answer, then the logical hierarchy of helpers is as follows: coop coordinator, faculty coordinator, Headof Coordinators (currently Keith Kenning) and Head of the Coop Department (currently Bruce Lumsden).

All students are invited to attend the Career Fair, September 29 from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. at Bingeman’s Conference Centre in Kitchener.

he Neighbourhood Watch Committee of Sunview, Lester, Hickory and Albert Streets in Waterloo wants to welcome all students to our community. The City of Waterloo is a great place to live, work and play. We want to share our neighbourhoods with you. We understand that there will be occasional and unavoidable inconveniences. They are part of living and generally require reasonable level of community understanding and tolerance. The Neighbourhood Watch Committee of Sunview, Lester, Hickory and Albert Streets was formed in early 1998 in partnership with community members, Waterloo Regional Neighbourhood

Watch, Waterloo ” Regional Police Service and the City of Waterloo. Recently, the President of the Federation of Students, Christine Cheng, joined our committee and a representative of Wilfrid Laurier University will be connecting with our group. We hope to promote awareness and use crime prevention to educate all residents on how to make our community a better place to live. This committee was formed in response to a letter from a local resident sent to the Mayor of Waterloo, the Chief of Police and Neighbourhood Watch. The letter included many concerns including trespassing, noise violation, theft of street signs and personal property, damage to personal property by-law violation and more. In September 1998, as a continuous effort to btidge the distance between the students and the community, the committee held a ‘Welcome Students to our Community’ BBQ. At this event, the ‘Student Block Captain Program’was initiated. The goal of this program is to promote good neighbour relations and in-

crease the communication between the students and community. Several students volunteered as Student Block Captains. In cooperation with the business community the committee will hold another ‘WcIcome Students tc the Community BBQ’ on Sunday, September 19, from2:3Ountil4:30. At this event, registration for new ‘Student Block Captains’ will be accepted. All that is required is that you be a student and a temporary resident of Albert, Hickory St. West, Lester or Sunview Streets. Once registered and accepted, a Student Block Captain receives an Identification Card and is asked to approach and counsel other students about neighbourhood issues concerning parking, noise, snow removal, litter and other concerns. The Block Captains act as liaison and dispense information when student residents are unaware of bylaws. Most potential problems canbe solved without involving a by-law officer or the police. -Mirietta Directoro

Frequentlyaskedquestions DAVID

AIKMAN

fmpnh-tstafl

very September, UW is swarmed by first-year students who look rather confused and who are loaded with questions about life both on campus and on the streets of Waterloo. Here are some answers to some of the most frequently asked questions of the past few years, which should help the Frosh become more familiar with what the school and the community has to offer.

Everywhere I go, there’s a . line-up. Wd this last all semester2 The first week of school can be hell. There’s a line-up to register, there’s a line-up to collect OSAP, there’s a line-up at the bookstore, there’s a line-up at the Bomber and’there’s even a line-up to register for Campus Rec. But there are ways to avoid this. Don’t bother collecting your OSAP until the second week. The longer you wait, the longer it lasts. Same with textbooks. Who are you trying to kid by lining up the first day of school to get your books so you can start studying? Realistically you’re not going to crack them until the first midterm. This may make some professors and publishers cringe, but you’dbesurprisedathowmanybooks on the course list aren’t even used. Don’t expect too many line-ups beyond the first week, kxcept at the Bomber on Wednesdays and Fed Hall on Thursdays.

I just paid $90 for a damn paperback novel. Are there any places besides the UW bookstore to get textbooks? The best bet for used textbooks is the Feds’ Used Bookstore on the lower level of the Student Life Centre (SLC).

You can also sell your old textbooks there. Also, try some of the used bookstores in uptown Waterloo and downtown Kitchener. They’re especially useful for literature courses.

How do I sign up for intramural sports and other acMties? Be sure to pick up a Campus Rec. guide as soon as possible from either outside the Feds’ office in the SLC or at various locations throughout the Physical Activities Complex (PAC). There’s a wide variety of offerings for both teams tid individuals, so be sureto participate in some fun and challenging activities.

How do I fmd out about all of the clubs and setices on CiUllplS? One place to begin is the Feds’ office in the SLC. Contrary to popular opinion, the Feds actually do organize things that are beneficial to the campus and community. Student handbooks are available in the office, free of charge, and they list a good number of the clubs and services offered. Another good place to check is the University of Waterloo website at http://www.uwaterloo.ca.

What is the Turnkey? The Turnkey Desk is located in the Student Life Centre and the employees there are trained to be omniscient. They are loaded with information about UW and can guide you in just about any direction. The Turnkeys perform key functions such as booking rooms in the SLC, playing the music you want to hear, loaning out games and magazines, posting housing information and selling coffee and stuff. Find out where the desk is early, because most study groups usually say “Let’s just meet at the Turnkey.”

Where do I go to see the latest movie? Unfortunately, there are no cinemas within waiking distance of UW. The Princess Cinema is a more than adequate substitute, but it specializes in second-run films and movies that are actually thought-provoking and hard to find anywhere else. A new cineplex is being planned for Waterloo in the near future, but until then, you’ll have to either take the bus or bum a ride to Kitchener to see the latest releases.

niversity isn’t about getting degrees or careers. No, university prepares you for something far more important bureaucracy. The first thing you learn is how to stand in line for hours and fill out forms in triplicate. University prepares you for bureaucracy like teaching a child to swim. You get thrown in at the deep end of the pool, and it’s up to you to si.nkorswim.Untilnow,newstudents have had to get in line and hope the person in front knows what to do. Now you have my words of wisdom for navigating the university bureaucracy.

Lines

and Signs

The first thing you notice is the lineups. just when the end is in sight, the line doubles back and you realize there are still a hundred people in front of you. Don’t get discouraged! Use this time to your advantage. Bring a text book to read and get a head start on the term, or make friends

Forms

and Frustrations

Whatever you are lining up for, you can assume you have to fill out a form, sign a document or show evidence of something. When you pick up your OSAP papers, you need proof of income, your fee statement and your Social Insurance Card, Unfortunately,

you

usually

don’t

know

this

until you get to the front of the line. Don’t be surprised to get to the front of the line, only to discover you are missing a required document and you have to start over again. Once you finally get your OSAP

hearts else.

Where do I go to do some shopphg for clothes and Stuff) Unfortunately, uptown Waterloo doesn’t have that much to offer even though there are some interesting stores that shouldn’t be overlooked. For those mallrats out there, there is Conestoga Mall in Waterloo, which is only a short bus ride away, while Fairview Mall in Kitchener has more to offer but takes a good hour by bus. Friends with cars come in handy as the actual drive to Fairview is only about20 minutes. Also make sure to check out the St. Jacob’s Farmer’s Market, Check at theTurnkey Desk for departure times to travel by bus. Hopefully this information will make the first few weeks on campus a little easier, Do not 4 be afraid to ask ;r - 9 people for inforfi mation, espe L cially fellow students.

Registration - tips and tricks with the people in line with you. Or entertain yourself by peering around for indications that you are in the right line. There is no point looking for signs. They are not posted where they would be convenient and easy for the students to read. If you can’t find the signs, or are still too far away to read them, you can try asking the person in front of you what they are lining up for. Of course, they usually don’t know what line they are in either.

The car that won people’s

papers, you need to line up in a different line to get a bank representative to help you fill out forms to get the cash, not just a promise of cash. You need your checkbook in this line so you can get the funds transferred to the correct account. However, you also, have the option of going to the CIBC in the basement of the SLC and following the chart on the wall which shows you how to fill in the forms. To use this option, you still need your checkbook and you need to be confident that you can follow instructions properly. Getting your Watcard is a little easier. When you reach the front of the line, they ask your name and verify that you are a student. Then you get your picture taken, get the Watcard with a horrible picture and sign your name on the back of the card. There

businesses, that’s good too. If it means giving you the opportunity this campus, then you have that option as well. To some, it may mean that you allow us to do our best to make sure your interests and ideas are well-represented - to the university administration, the City of Waterloo or to our federal or provincial governments. For others, making life better may involve giving you access to cheap textbooks or food. AU undergrads pay a fee each term to the Feds and you have an infinite number of ways in which you can take advantage of what we have to offer. When you get to campus, look in your frosh kit for your Federation of St&n& Handbook. The handbook is full of information on what the Feds can do for you and provides you with numerous opportunities to get involved (check out pages 15 and 16 of the handbook). So, as YOU look forward to your next four or five years here at Waterloo, remember that the Feds are here to serve you! Please, take advantage of the services we offer and let us know how we can serve you better.. . our door is always open. You can contact us at 888-4042 or visit us in the SLC, Room 1102.

I am sure all of you had a Students’ Council President at your high school. Here at the University of Waterloo, my role is similar in that I am the Chair of Students’ Council and I act asa spokesperson for UW students. My job goes much, much further than that, though. Not only do I represent you on important issuestich as tuition policy, the construction of new residences on campus and the management of your Student Life Centre, but I am also the CEO of your $4.2 million corporation. What does this really mean? It means that if you have an exciting new idea and you need help to make it happen, you can always come and ask the Feds. This is how the Student Life Centre was built. This is why course evaluations may be publicized next year. This is why we plan to hold a major student conference on information technology this year, We, the students, drive this university. What else does it mean to have a Fed president around? It means that most times a major decision that affects students is made on this campus, I will be part of the decision-making process. It also means that if you have acomplaint or a compliment for one of the Fed businesses or services, you can always tell me. In a month or two, all of you will be caught up in juggling academics, a social life and extra-curricular activities. Some of you might be too busy to think about the Feds again in the next four months. The only thing I want you to remember is that the Federation of Students is your voice on campus. I am here to represent you. I can be contacted through fedpres@feds.uwaterloo.ca or 888-4567 ext. 2478.

you As you submitted your first tuition fees to the University of Waterloo, paid 60 per cent more than someone who started university in 1995. During your first few weeks, you might also notice how large some of your classes are or how crowded facilities like computer labs are. All of these experiences are the results of a few decisions made last year. This year, those same decisions about tuition and enrollment expansion will be made again. Where does that leave you? A frustrated bystander? A nonchalant observer? Or perhaps you feel compelled to do something about this. But you don’t know who to talk to, and besides, what can be done about this anyway? That’s where I come in. I’m your Vice President Education with the Federation of Students. It’s my job to help you translaw your opinions on education issues into action. The key to my success, and YOLITS, is your involvement. Don’t be intimidated by your relative inexperience here at UW. Your views and opinions are very important. Without you backing me up, my efforts are useless. And that means that decisions will be made on our behalfsome students feel that they already are. It doesn’t have to be this way; in fact, it shouldn’t be this way- We are among Canada’s top students. Now, let’s n&e our voices strong so that we can have a direct influence on this institution, . which relies upon us and our financial support for its continued success. Within my portfolio there are several opportunities for you to get involved. Take advantage of these opportunitiesand make sure that you have your say.

Meeting people and making friends MARK

DANCH

he nice thing about the university community is that A there are so many outlets avaihble to fill your spare time and meet new people. The following are some suggestions for making friends and having fun. As you become familiar with the school, you’ll notice many other things that you can do to gain new friends and have a good time, When you go to your first day of classes, introduce yourself to at least one person beside you in each class, Not only can you make a new friend this way, but you also give yourself someonetotalktoaboutmissednotes, assignments and the test you never knew you had. Take a look around. There’s a good chance that you’ll be seeing some of the same people in other

classes this term and in the coming years. If you’re in residence, take a cruise down your hallway every now and then. There will always be someone who wants to go get something to.eat or drink. Keep in touch with the people on your floor, Some of them will have the same classes as you and some may even be in the same program. Be able to say hello to everyone and there will always be people to talk to or, at the very least, procrastinate with in the lounge, An excellent way to gain or lose friends is to crank your music as loud as it can go (at appropriate hours, of courSe). If you can hear the music from two doors down, it’s just loud enough. If you are a music connoisseur, there will be many types of music that you’ve never heard before. If you find someone who can consistently provide you with new music that you love, you’ve made a

for life. When you have a party, either on your floor or at your house offcampus, be sure to invite people around you, either next door or on one of the floors above or below you. Being included gets people interactingand talking. If your house or floor is going en-masse to the bar or pub, ask others if they would like to go. People are often more comfortable

Finally, if you are trying to find a lover or that special someone, make sure that he or she is your friend first. If you exercise a bit of caution, friends make the best lovers. Roommates may or may not make good lovers. And friends can sometimes make the worst lovers, so be careful and if you started as friends, try to end as friends. This campus isn’t nearly as big as it appears to be.

Suggestionsfor getting involved on campus

ow that you’re here at the prestigious University of Waterloo and you’ve paid your ridiculously large tuition bill, perhaps another large residence bill, not to mentiun books, what are you going to do with yourself? Homework, if you choose to do it, takes up a large chunk of time, but everyone needs sanity breaks. This is an article that can help you with that. The first step is to identify what you’re interested in. Student council, athletics, dancing whatever. Have a look at a list of all the clubs and services available to you on campus (there are about 60 clubs and about 20 services in all) and go see them. Most clubs and services will welcome you with open arms if you’re offering to volunteer for them. My suggestion; if you have any free time during Frosh week, look

through the campus recreation booklet, which is available at the,Physical Activities Complex (PAC) and make notes of what you want to do and the sign-up dates for them. I clearly remember my first year, discovering my campus recreation booklet in the bottom of my drawer around late September, looking through and thinking, “I would have liked to have done that, and that, and that . .” but then noticing the sign-up dates were all about three weeks earlier. Must clubs and serviceswill welcome you any time but for things like co-recreational sports and fitness classes, you have to sign up in early September. There are other ways to get involved with campus life as well. If you live in one of the villages, you could sign up to be a floor representative. If you’re interested in student councils, our Federation of Students executive is in the Student Life Centre (SLC) or you can join the l

council for your faculty. If you’re more interested in the media, we have our very own radio station, CKMS, or a variety of newspapers. Imprint is the official student newspaper for UW, but there are also other student-run publications such as mathNEWS for Mathies and The Iron Warrior for Engineers. The Environmental Studies faculty also has two publications -Alternatives Journal and Enuironments]oumal. If you’re not sure which activities or clubs you want to join after reading through Imprint and the millions of information packages every Frosh receives, get on the Internet and check out UW’s web page and the different links. Eventually, you’ll find something you’re interested in. And if you don’t, you can always start your own club. Just try not to forget that you are here to study. Your club won’t be of much use if you’re not here to run it after your first term.

meeting others in a group. If all else fails, walk around campus doing something ridiculous, You could try walking sideways, talking loudly to yourself or stuffing a pillow up your back so it looks like you have a hump. The people who come and talk to you will be eager to know just. what the hell you’re doing and this is a great way to meet people who are as crazy as you are.

Why

t least half of you have decided that alternating four months of school and work for your university career is a good idea. I agree, but co-op does have its drawbacks. Here are some of the major things that co-op students complain about and what you can do to help yourself get through them,

Why do peciple complain about co-op so much? One of the biggest complaints is that it takes up so much time - it’s like taking an extra course for which you have to skip other classes. But you have to remember that the time you spend checking postings and interview schedules, dressing up in your suit and hanging out in Needles Hall is an investment in getting a job you’ll enjoy and gain valuable experience from. One way you’can reduce the strain on your time is to use the online system, Access, to check postings

and

schedules

from

home

before you come to campus in the morning. You can also avoid the crowds by checking postings at MC and EL, but remember that Access is the most up-to-date source for interview scheduies.

does co-op much?

cost so

Asignificant portion of your coop fees go to the co-op coordinators. Their job is to lure employers to campus and facilitate the relationships between employers, the university and coiop students. Traditionally students have felt that most of the coordinators are useless and have resorted to fending for themselves. But there are a few helpful coordinators - search them out and make them work for you. Ask them questions about job hunting, the market for students with your skills and on-the-job expectations. If you do get stuck with a coordinator who ignores your requests and keeps referring you to someone else, keep asking your questions. If we all make an effort to compel our coordinator to be more responsible and effective, then co-op will be a more enjoyable experience; remember, you’re paying their salaries, make them work for you. why

4iLoes number

the

I can

Co-op’s job is to match as many students with jobs as possible. So, if highlyexperienced students apply to thirt), jobs, get twenty-five interviews, get

ten offers, but can only accept one job, it lowers the chance of less-experienced students getting an offer. The limit on applications means you should only apply to the jobs that you want and that you are reasonably qualified for. Very few people get an absolutely fantastic job their first time out. There are also very few really bad jobs. The job is what you make it anyway and everyone has to pay their dues.

Why

do I have to write work report?

Work reports are designed to make sure that Mathies and Engineers can write a decent and legible paper, so blame it on them. While standards vary from department to department, you can usually get away with minimal effort; some faculties only list the work report credit and not the mark, so aim for satisfactory instead of pushing yourself for an outstanding that no one will ever know about. Remember you can always resubmit. Although you will do five or six wark

Frosh Supplement

How to get around K-W

ost of us who arrive on campus from some far off land like Scarborough [via the 401 and the Conestoga Parkway (Hwy. 86)] initially see Kitchener as this annoying area that makes our journey twenty minutes longer. Or maybe that’s the way you’ll view it after four years of driving around it. However, Kitchener does have its strong points and Waterloo certainly wouldn’t be the same without Kitchener. Waterloo may be the focal point of your life for the next four years, but Kitchener has the big mall, big dance clubs and big movie theatres for those times when you want to escape the focal point of your life. At any rate, both cities have much to offer a young Frosh looking for something to do off-campus. But before you wander out in search of amusement, there are a few things you should know about the streets of K-W. First of all, King St., the main drag that runs (supposedly) north-

south through the centre of both cities, starts in the south end of Kitchener as King St. East, then becomes King St. West, and King St. South, before exiting Waterloo as King St. North. The other major “North-South” route through the twincitesis W&r (pronounced Weeber) running parallel to King St. except when it crosses it in three places! Don’t ever agree to meet a friend at the corner of King and Weber: you’ll likely be waiting in Kitchener while your friend stands around north of Waterloo wondering where you are. Another strange one is University Avenue West. It starts at the Parkway and runs directly west parallel to Erb, like a good little street until it swerves slightly so as not to run into UW campussimply common courtesy and completely forgivable. But after it passes Westmount Rd. on the West side of campus, it swings south and crosses Erb! Just remember, when it comes to the streets of Kitchener-Waterloo, things are not always as they seem.

The bus routes to and from campus are a httle tricky, so for those of you who want to flee the classes, exams and assignments for a while, here are the routes in and around Waterloo. If you are without car and without friends with cars, you-should become familiar with the Kitchener Transit System. There are three routes that pass by the campus on University Avenue West: 7,8 and 12. Route 7 travels up and down King Street from the Kitchener Bus Terminal in downtown Kitchener to Fairview Mall (7A, B) in the south end of Kitchener and north to the UW campus (7D) and Conestoga Mall (7C). Route 8 does a figure-eight through the cities centred on the bus terminal and stops across from South Campus Hall and at Fairview Mall. Route 12 takes you from Conestoga Mall past UW to Fairview Mall in a rather indirect path and it does not stop at the Kitchener terminal. The bus fare will cost you $2, but you can save money by buying tickets or a student pass. Route maps are available in the Student Life Centre entrance by the Turnkey Desk.

Residence:life in a nutshell

o, you’ve made it to University and finally have a place to call your own. Who cares if it’s only 75 square feet? Its yours, dammit, and now you can live by your own rules. Living in residence provides a set of challenges and opportunities that will play almost as big a part of your first year at UW as your classes will. A survival kit for residence life: a bottle of Pepto, a set of earplugs, an arrow pointing you in the direction of your Don’s room and a huge poster of the Library to cover one of your Walls.

The bottle of Pepto is for dealing with the food. This isn’t going to be a rant about the quality of residence food, but it does take . . . adjustment. It’s not that the food they make in Village is necessarily bad, it’s just the same a lot. The secret to surviving the food is variety. Don’t eat your meals in the same place every day. Take the time to discover such far away locations as the Festival Room and the Davis Centre lunch court. The different options will save you from the end-ofterm blabs which inevitably strike those who eat at the Village cafeteria every day.

Aside from that, keep in mind that fried food every day will catch up to everyone eventually. The earplugs are for shutting out the residence environment when neceq. Perhaps the best and worst thing about living in residence is that

Picture three sets of 2OOW speakers stacked on top of each other blasting “Livin’ La Vida Loca” there is almost always something going on, no matter what time. While getting involved in residence life will be one of the best things that you can do, everyone needs to step back every now and again. The earplugs will also come in handy for &Power Hour.” If you haven’t heard of “Power Hour” yet, picture three sets of 200W speakers stacked on top of each other blasting “Livin’ La Vida Loca” down the hallway. It’s okay if you’re having a party, not so great if you are trying to do

your calculus assignment. One final comment about residence and noise: the walls in Village are very thin and there are some things that your neighbors do not want to hear, The arrow pointing to your Don’s room is to remind you that there are times when everyone needs help or advice. The university pays somebody to live really close to you who might not be able to help you themselves, but who will know someone who can. Use that resource as much as you can - it will make the tough times that much easier and hey, your Don is probably a pretty cool person too. Finally, don’t forget the picture of the Library. Residence life rocks and you will meet more great people and have more great experiences in residence than you can count. There are, however, other reasons why you came to university. It is easy to lose perspective on those reasons during your first year. Don’t fall victim to the trap - keep something around to remind yoti of that. For me, residence life was a window which propelled me into some of the greatest experiences of my life. For you, residence life can provide the kind of experience you are looking for. Never forget to make residence a great part of your university experience, but not the whole part.

RECYCLE RIGHT,!

from the Regional Municipality of Waterloo WASTE MANAGEMENT DIVISION

Most communities in Onbrio have recycling programs, but each of them have different rules about what materials are recyclqble and how they are to be prepared for pick-up. In Waterloo Region, there are two recycling collection programs: a Cart collection program for participating apartments, condominiums, townhouses; and a weekly curbside Mue Box collection program for single family dwellings, semi-detached duplexes, smaller walk-up apartment buildings, and student lodging residences. Once you know which of the two collection programs services your place of residence, the information below will help you sort and prepare materials properly for recycling.
