Western Connections to offer Budweiser tix Western Connections will now be selling tickets for all events and shows at Budweiser Gardens for the same price as at the stadium’s box office. The University Students’ Council explained in a press release Western Connections is in the process of becoming a liaison between students and events in the London
community. “The USC believes that Western Connections can be somewhere a student can go to see all the different things that London has to offer,” Tony Ayala, vice-president finance for the USC, said. “Many students come to Western from other cities and don’t know the different activities and events that London puts on.” Western Connections also offers Wonderland tickets in the summer, Purple Bike rentals, concert tickets, London Transit Commission tickets, Greyhound tickets and tickets to other events put on by the USC. “The USC will continue to look for partners in the community who we feel will offer a good mix of experiences that students could identify with,” Ayala continued. The deal with Budweiser Gardens has been in the works since October 2012. —Megan Devlin

Goodbyes have never really been my strong suit—I’m more of a ‘see ya later’ type of guy. Also, typically I’m emotionally reserved—however, it’s important to note that that doesn’t mean I’m not moved by the end of this chapter of my life. The Gazette has been a large part of my day-to-day life for the last three years, and Western for the last five. It’s going to be pretty weird to move on from them, and London—in fact, for the first time in almost a decade I’m looking at being unemployed, come the end of April. Space is scarce, so I’ll get to the point—I want to thank all the editors I’ve had the pleasure of working with, and also the readers for sticking with us. I learned a valuable lesson this year—it’s impossible to please everyone. Learning to accept that, and to also learn to work with criticism, was a crucial skill that’ll undoubtedly help me in the future. It’s been a pleasure interviewing, reporting and writing for you. The Gazette was a great place for me to grow as a journalist, and now I’ll happily join the ranks of alumni— hopefully I can do as well as some of them. —Cam Parkes, Managing Editor, Volume 106

Fearnall checks in on USC
From product development to advertising, this program offers the unique skills you will need to launch your career as an account executive, marketing manager, marketing specialist, product manager and many other exciting career options.
Ritchie Sham Gazette
Alex Carmona News Editor Adam Fearnall capped off his year as University Students’ Council president yesterday when he gave the annual State Of The USC address. Breaking from the past two years, Fearnall focused less on recounting specific things he accomplished as president, and focused more on big picture concerns. “What we have to do is a lot bigger than politics, and is a lot bigger than campaign promises,” he began. “The USC can start conversations on things that maybe are difficult to discuss, and we can start to slowly, piece by piece, move the thinking and generate the discussion that we need in order to have the important changes students are asking for on campus.” Fearnall brought up USC success in tackling structural issues, such as the USC’s role in the London community, establishing continuity
between the incoming and outgoing executive and engaging with students outside the USC clique. “One of the things this year’s USC can be proud of is that we’re starting to engage people who care about different things. We’re starting to see that in the applications we get for our commissioner and coordinator positions, the applications we get for our intern positions—we’re starting to see new people feel like the USC has a place for them,” he said. However, Fearnall also mentioned one major area where the USC must strive to improve. “We really need a relationship with Western’s board of governors. We don’t really have one right now, and it’s something that all of us have identified as a priority going forward.” Fearnall stressed the organization is in a good place financially, and that part of this success stems from the USC’s willingness to reinvent itself.
Delayed PSE entrance may be good in long run Aaron Zaltzman News Editor It may not have been a bad idea after all to take that year off after high school, as a new study has found students who delayed entry in post-secondary education were not delayed in getting into the job market. The study, conducted by the Higher Education Quality Council of Ontario, examined data on university graduates from various years between 1982 and 2005. It found overall performance in getting into the labour market did not differ significantly between those who delayed entering post-secondary education, and those who did not. The authors of the study said the results were significant because of the make-up of many of the students who chose to delay their education. “In Ontario, delayers, especially long delayers, tend to be first-generation or aboriginal graduates, groups traditionally underrepresented in post-secondary education,” the study read. “First-generation graduates—graduates whose parents have no post-secondary education credentials—are disproportionately overrepresented among delayers, especially long delayers.” The authors opined the lack of
difference in labour market entry demonstrates the value of postsecondary education. “Post-secondary education can help underrepresented groups succeed in the labour market and raise their socioeconomic status to the same level as traditional postsecondary education graduates,” the study read. At Western, mature students who delay their education can face a number of challenges coming into university. “One of the key difficulties for mature students is that they may not have done well academically before, so there may be some challenges they face in dealing with academic requirements at university,” Donna Moore, mature student advisor for the Western Student Success Centre, explained. “It’s fairly common for mature students to need to adjust to the academic requirements.” However, they also hold a number of advantages, which could explain why their performance in the labour market is similar to nondelayed students. “The mature student has the advantage of previous work experience by the time they come to Western,” Moore said. “They can draw on that, which not only helps them in their studies, but also in talking to employers afterward.”
Other areas of reinvention made an appearance in the address as well. “Next year the USC will be in a transition phase with its board of directors. We’ll be bringing in five students-at-large and we’re really excited to have them involved. We’re providing a really meaningful learning opportunity for these students, and we’re opening ourselves up to more scrutiny, which I think is really good,” he said. Fearnall closed the address with a call for the USC to challenge itself and strive to fully understand the wants and needs of the students it exists to serve. “If you take anything from today’s speech, I hope that it’s this—no matter how big a system, the only thing that really matters is that you’re willing to get to know yourself and the people around you. Ask yourself tough questions and always try to understand why someone feels the way that they do.”

Drinking your health away A final goodbye Emily Michele Stewart Contributor Despite recent restrictions from Health Canada limiting caffeine in energy drinks to 180 mg, there is still some controversy over the amount, with concerns about nutritional value. “If there is energy, it comes in the form of sugar, which we get too much of anyway,” says Peter Lemon, director of Western’s Exercise Nutrition Laboratory. However, food and nutritional sciences professor at Western and registered dietitian Leonard Piché argues it depends on the amount of caffeine, noting you should always check the labels. “The positive thing out of that is the amount of caffeine, regardless of its source, is going to be disclosed on those containers now,” Piché explains. “Very few people are aware that
females at the reproductive age should consume no more than 300 mg a day, while for adult males, it’s 400 mg,” says Lesley Macaskill, another food and nutritional sciences

professor at Western. Macaskill also connects an over consumption of energy drinks to many health issues, especially relating to cardiovascular, behavioural and fertile health. Lemon outlines the dangers of combining energy drinks with
alcohol. “The caffeine seems to mask some of the effects of alcohol on the consumer. So, very simply, you think that you haven’t had too much to drink, and you think ‘I can drive.’” Master’s of coaching student JohnPaul Levac links excessive amounts of caffeine to dehydration. “This can cause sleeplessness, decreased urine output, dry skin, headaches, constipation, dizziness and diarrhea,” he says. Instead of consuming energy drinks, Piché suggests incorporating breakfast and drinking fruit juices. “Not necessarily the fruit beverages or the fruit drinks, but the actual ones that are derived from juice, so [you] will then get carbohydrate sources at least from that.” For Macaskill, proper diet, exercise and sleep are key. “Your body craves these things, so it give it what it needs, especially during times of stress, like exams.”
In the Nic of Time
Nicole Gibillini Deputy Editor
It’s with great sadness I sit down to write my final piece for The Gazette. When I decided to come to Western as an English major five years ago, I figured I’d have the typical university experience. I knew I’d likely enjoy my time here, but expected to blend in with the sea of students, and thought I would develop most of my skills in the classroom. I couldn’t have been more wrong. Western welcomed me with an abundance of opportunities to pick from, one of them being The Gazette. In a blink of an eye, I was hired as a section editor and eventually became the paper’s deputy editor, responsible for overseeing Arts & Life, the section where I spent most of my Gazette career. My time here has given me confidence, improved my writing skills and allowed me to become part of something so important to the Western community. Most
rewarding was seeing The Gazette affect a number of students the same way it affected me. I’ve had the pleasure of watching fellow staff and volunteers gain confidence, improve their writing skills in a matter of weeks and, most importantly, come to a place they belonged to. Through covering local arts—a community tight-knit and unique unto itself— I’ve realized just how important community is, regardless of the form it takes. To most, The Gazette may be just another student paper, but my time here, as both as a contributor and an observer, has proved it to be so much more. I’ve seen hundreds of people walk through The Gazette doors—some leave frustrated, some never come back, but many depart a different person. To those of you who bothered to read this, and who have read The Gazette in the past, thank you for taking the time to do so. While The Gazette will never be perfect, it has done a good job teaching its contributors important lessons. As I conclude my final goodbye, I’d like to leave you with the most important lessons I’ve taken from my time here—perseverance pays off, all problems can be solved and every challenge, stressful day and criticism you face will turn you into a better person.

Piper picks London for show Continuing musical travels in London Rida Ahmed Contributor
Kevin Heslop Gazette Staff
Organic dance music is the way in which Brad Weber refers to his newest musical project, Pick a Piper—a heavy mixture of acoustical instruments and a wide array of electronic sounds. With the release of their debut L.P. in early April, Weber and his group of collaborators, Angus Fraser and Dan Roberts, have been engaging audiences with their dynamic performances and now come to London to play at the APK on April 19. “I’ve jumped out into the crowd with a floor tom before and danced with people,” Weber says. “We just try to make it a really fun engaging experience that might be a bit different from night to night.” Weber, the band’s drummer, draws from a vast range of musical genres and a fruitful collaboration
with Dan Snaith, to whom Weber credits an encyclopedic musical knowledge. “Some of the music he’s turned me onto has really influenced the music I’ve made,” Weber says. Weber’s growth as a performer and a songwriter can also be attributed, in part, to his time with his former band, Caribou—Snaith’s experimental powerhouse. “Originally, we were trying to create dance music out of entirely organic sources, but I kind of wanted to make it drum-heavy, so every song ended up being this cacophony of 10 layers of drums and percussion and shakers and hand drums,” says Weber, referring to Pick a Piper’s earlier work. With his time with Caribou in toe, Weber reflects on the things he’s learned. “Give things space and work with sparser arrangements. I think more about groove and feel, or an interesting beat, instead of how

many 16th notes you can cram into one bar.” Weber’s range and maturity is apparent in such tracks as “All Her Colours,” with its bright, blooming synth, mixed with soothing vocal stylings, and a ruddy atmosphere of electronic drums, and “Cinders and Dust,” a percussionheavy, poly-rhythmic machine. Weber orchestrates each track through a process he calls “sampling his friends.” After his associates respond musically to an original idea, he filters each sample through his mind, splicing and meshing the different ideas together to come up with a new, cohesive whole. “To me, one of the most powerful things music can communicate is this immediate sense of emotion,” Weber says. “It can really powerfully and immediately put you in a certain emotional state—it’s one of the most incredible things about music.”
Touring Canada for the sixth year in a row, one-man band Jean-Paul De Roover is celebrating the release of his fourth album, Complexity in Simplicity. Compared to his last album, Windows and Doors, Roover’s new work is much simpler, blending the studio world and the live world to create 10 new tracks. “Music has always been a part of my blood, I would be making noise all the time—there was no pause at any given moment,” says Roover who, growing up, listened to all kinds of music, a lot of which have inspired his music today. “I grew up singing barber shop and a capella, so there’s a ton of vocal harmonies on everything that I do, and there are also certain elements of metal and rock that I love.” With so many genres of music inspiring his work, many of Roover’s fans have a hard time describing his music. “I guess it’s a compliment when people don’t know how to categorize your music,” Roover says. “What I’ve heard a lot is that my music has a quality that is me, and that’s a great compliment in the sense that I’ve found my voice over the past four years. Now I’ve found and really
honed in on the sound I can call my own.” During his career, Roover released four albums, played various international music festivals and opened for bands like The Beach Boys and Goo Goo Dolls. Now, Roover comes to London to play at the APK on April 12 as part of his ongoing travels. “What I think is the coolest thing is the fact that, because I travel as much as I do, I get to see the country, I get to see cool bands, I get to meet people and spend all this time just engaged with music. I’m most proud of the fact that I’m doing it, making it happen, and people are willing to support me.” Given the chance, Roover would like to collaborate with visual artists as well as filmmakers. “In the next five years I would imagine myself touring the states a lot more as well as branching out to Europe and Australia. I’ve got two options for where I can go from here. I could do an acoustic version of the songs from the new album or I could also write a brand new album where the titles of the songs are actually quotes from comedians, and then build songs around those.” Roover will be performing at the APK on April 12 starting at 9 p.m. Tickets are $5.

Opinions A final meeting of the minds Yesterday afternoon, The Gazette Editorial Board for volume 106 sat down one last time to discuss the lessons learned and memories created from years of working at Canada’s largest student newspaper while balancing full-time studies. While some editors will be returning next year, many are leaving Western for good. Here are some of our main points taken from the year:
›› Live for the good parts. A lot of what you do will be the daily grind, but every so often a story comes along that really excites you ›› Treasure the sight of your name in print ›› Put yourself out there ›› Communication and collaboration are of the utmost importance ›› If you try to make something perfect, you won’t get as much out of it if you just put yourself out there and do the best you can ›› People actually read and respond to The Gazette ›› Best time of the day is interacting with fellow editors, whether it be idle chatter or fervent debate ›› Try to get to know different people with different opinions ›› The best stories are the ones you think of yourself ›› A lot of stuff about working at the paper is stressful, but you have to be able to laugh ›› Everything comes down to the relationships you build ›› Any problem can be solved ›› We’re able to affect change ›› The paper is something to be proud of ›› This is home
“Never say goodbye because goodbye means going away, and going away means forgetting.”

Turning a new page Dickie in a Box
Gloria Dickie Editor-in-Chief
To this day I can still recall one of my first editorial tasks at The Gazette— choose a byline. The year was 2010, and while Saturday Night Live’s “Dick in a Box” comedy duet had been out for a few years, I was positive my new byline would resonate with my peers and bring forth much laughter. And besides, what else could I really do with the last name ‘Dickie’? Three years later, and there are a now handful of first-years at Western who were only 12 years old when that sketch came out. Thus, I think it should be evident that my time here has come to an end. We’ve published a lot of stories this year about “getting involved” at university. Most are accompanied by a few quotes from human resources personnel underlining its importance for employability. A less-mentioned caveat to getting involved is the relationships you’ll develop—and, indeed, many times it’s these relationships that will get you through all the highs and lows of a 60-hour work week. Students can often point to one experience that defines their “university life.” For The Gazette, it seems that experience can be taken one step further—it defines your life. When the University Students’ Council announced their planned move of our offices in January, the outpouring of support from alumni was incredible. Friends contacted friends who contacted friends—many dating back to the 1980s. It should come as
no surprise that many alumni—after spending 40 hours a week in the office together during their frisky, young adult phase—were now married to each other with children. All spoke with pride, warmth and an obvious yearning for their time at the student paper. Besides the copious amounts of time spent with one another, The Gazette is often full of adrenaline. There are few words to describe the feeling of when a big story breaks. There are even fewer words to describe it when a big story breaks and you’re racing to cover it with your best friends at your side. I remember, clearly, the look on a new volunteer’s face when details were emerging about the lack of funding for Western’s Holy Book Day. I’d never seen someone look so interested and excited at their first day on the job. That volunteer has come in nearly every day since, and was hired on as an editor for volume 107. As student newspapers are relegated to a small slice of campus life, it’s important not to forget about what they are—student newspapers. Yes, our job is to provide studentsat-large with the information they need to know, but it is also to educate aspiring writers and journalists. Cut down the printing schedule, reduce funding and you end up hurting students. If there’s one mantra I’ve kept in mind while working here for the past four years it’s this—The Gazette is not only a paper, it’s a classroom and it’s a family. As I clean out my office, and pick up my last copy, it’s with a bittersweet frame of mind. I know I’ll never forget this place, but, on the other hand, I can’t wait to be one of the paper’s proud alumni, making way for the next generation of young student journalists and taking the lessons I learned within these purple and blue walls out into the world.

Dear Life
Your anonymous letters to life. Dear Life, When are you going to teach “poor” undergraduate and graduate students that if they can afford to drink, they can afford to leave a gratuity to those who rely on them for their livelihood? Dear Life, What about those of us who have lots of papers and no exams? Don’t we deserve a 24hour library schedule too? Dear Life, How many times do I have to go to Ceeps Bingo until it becomes statistically probable that I finally win? Dear Life, They should take all the food pictures off of Facebook and Instagram and put them in their own social media platform so the rest of us don’t have to be bombarded with them. Dear Life, I don’t remember the last time I had a handshake at a club that wasn’t awkward. Letter to the Editor
Taunting a campus concern To the Editor: I witnessed something on Saturday, April 6 while visiting campus to watch a student recital. I completed all three of my degrees at Western and I always enjoy the chance to visit campus, especially if it means reconnecting with former students. Having some time to spare I decided to walk up to University Community Centre—seeing how campus has evolved is something I hope current students return to see. As I neared the Great Hall, a girl on a bicycle burst past a group of students. She had a milk crate on the back and was in a hurry and upset. Almost instantly, a guy in the group called out, “Why don’t you pedal faster! Maybe you’ll fly?!” He continued to cut the girl to pieces with his friends, laughing as I passed. Really?! This is what passes as how current Western students treat one another? I was somehow not surprised to read the recent poll on mental health on campus. With man-children like that lurking, I have no doubt more support is needed. —Dave Parkes M.Ed 2010
