O-week’s drinking problem Lights! Camera! Western and Huron differ in philosophies

PICKING UP YOUR BUS PASS IS MORE FUN WITH A BEER. Students line up to pick up their bus passes during O-Week in this file photo. Though Western has an officially dry O-Week, Huron University College does not. The question of which approach is safer remains unanswered.

Stephanie Grella GAZETTE STAFF The stringent rules of a dry Orientation Week are meant to prevent students from drinking. It’s unclear, however, how effective these rules are for promoting a safe and welcoming environment for first-year students. According to a 2009 Statistics Canada survey, about 30 per cent of females and 40 per cent of males between the ages of 18–19 are heavy drinkers. While organizing a dry O-Week demonstrates Western’s attempt to offer all students an equally safe and enjoyable time, imposing an alcohol ban — on first year students as well as residence staff and sophs — has not stopped students from accessing and consuming alcohol in the past.

As we like to refer to it at Huron, our O-Week is not wet, but ‘damp.’ — Nicholas Barrow

Vice-president student life at Huron University College

“In my experience, there were students who did comply with the dry O-Week policies, and there were those who did not,” says Eric Pattara, a past residence soph and head soph for Saugeen-Maitland Hall. “Of the students who did participate in drinking, I would imagine that they at least did so discretely, such as in their rooms or in other residences.” In terms of alcohol consumption

policies in many Western residences, alcohol consumption is prohibited in public spaces and permitted only in each of the student’s room, according to Western’s Alcohol, Smoking and Pornography policy. During O-Week, however, alcohol is absolutely prohibited in residences, whether in a dorm room or in the hallways. “I don’t exactly think that a wet O-Week would moderate or improve the alcohol consumption that takes place on campus,” Pattara says. “I remember each year with training we were shown the numbers of alcohol-related hospitalizations that occurred during past O-Weeks — including those that took place before the dry O-Week policy was implemented — and that number >> see DRY pg.2

Have you been hearing about zombies seemingly everywhere lately? Well, good news, you aren’t going crazy — it’s actually happening. Zombies, who you may recognize as the mindless walking dead creatures who occasionally feast on humans, have penetrated popular culture to such an extent that they now garner university courses dedicated to them — even at Western. Barbara Bruce, adjunct professor in Western’s Department of Film Studies, has taught a few zombie studies classes at Western. She said they have proven popular among students and she has to turn away students because the classes fill up so quickly. Students may be curious to find out more about zombies because of the plethora of attention they get in the media. In the past few years, zombie films like World War Z, Zombieland, World’s End, Warm Bodies and Survival of the Dead have generated hundreds of millions in revenue, a popular television show The Walking Dead, and there have even been news headlines reporting on so-called zombie attacks, like the one in Miami in May of 2012. Zombies have also crept into academia. According to the Wall Street Journal, book distributor Baker and Taylor said that in the last five years there have been 20 new scholarly books with “zombie” in the title, compared to 10 in the preceding five years. JSTOR has 39 articles referencing zombies since 2005, versus seven in the preceding 10 years. Bruce explained portrayals of zombies have been historically rooted in cultural and societal anxieties of that age, starting with the original zombie from the

voodoo Caribbean tradition. At the same time that White Zombie, the first feature length zombie film, came out in 1932, America had recently invaded Haiti and the film depicted the black population rising up under the influence of some exotic drug. “The point is, the zombie as a figure, is a polysemic symbol, meaning it can represent different things at one and the same time, it can symbolize so many different things,” Bruce said. “All of them typically have to do with wider cultural anxieties about how our society, our Western culture is developing and evolving.” Since then, zombie movies have focused on such cultural anxieties as the Cold War, invasion from outer space, fear of the rise of mass culture, terrorism and scientific innovation. “That’s the big thing that comes out of [George] Romero, is the idea that Western culture is becoming so materialistic, so consumeristic, that we prey on each other to try to feed ourselves […] cannibalism as a metaphor,” Bruce said. “How capitalism is based on the idea of exploiting and using other people in order to profit to get ahead.” And now, the focus is on young people’s obsession with technology and how it alienates them from the world. “If you look at a film like Warm Bodies, it’s very much linked to young people and their dependency on technology,” Bruce said. “So, what are our smartphones and our laptops and all these things doing to us as a culture, particularly young people? How it alienates them, isolates them, how we’re a culture that’s losing touch, becoming alienated as communities break down because of technology — that’s absolutely what that film is expressing through the zombie figure.”

significantly decreased following the change in policy. I think this shows that while it is impossible to control what every student is doing during Orientation Week, the dry policy allows them to be more conscious of their behaviour.” No representatives from the

Western administration were available for comment. Western is not alone in being adamant about continuing to host a dry O-Week. In 2010, the University of Guelph implemented a sober week for first-year students and orientation staff as a way to sustain student safety and promote a welcoming environment for incoming

students. Although an O-Week sans booze might impel students to think before they drink, a dry O-Week may not be the key to safe, clean fun for first-year students. A recent example of this was during Queen’s University’s 2010 Frosh Week, where a first-year engineering student was found dead on one of the last days of the event-filled week. Coroner reports determined that alcohol was a factor in the student’s death. Counteracting the complete sobriety of O-Week, Huron University College offers their firstyear students an O-Week open to drinking responsibly — the only Western affiliate that strays away from the alcohol ban. “As we like to refer to it at Huron, our O-Week is not wet, but ‘damp,’” says Nicholas Barrow, vice-president student life at Huron. “We do not encourage drinking at events, but our Residence Life Staff does allow legal age students to drink in the privacy of their own rooms. I believe that this does help to at least moderate the drinking that takes place because first-years will feel safe drinking in their rooms rather than having to hide somewhere outside, or be scared of getting caught.” Barrow also believes this policy bolsters the trust between first-year students and Residence Life Staff, as students would feel more comfortable approaching staff about any sort of issue without worrying about the consequences. As much as Canadian universities try to offer all first-year students a fun and safe Frosh Week, there is little to stop students from venturing to Richmond Row and indulging in the London nightlife — a common occurrence among frosh with a strong thirst for the “typical” university Frosh Week. “I believe that drinking is something that had become a common practice in student life and will continue to be that way for years to come. For us to ignore that entirely and punish all students for it is irresponsible and creates a less cohesive environment,” Barrow says. “I think that allowing students to have a place to drink safely where they can be monitored and have access to support from their Residence Life Staff will create an environment with less danger and tension.”

UWO partner firm to expand to McMaster Soheil Milani GAZETTE STAFF Fraunhofer, a German-based research firm currently in partnership with Western, is looking to expand to Hamilton. With Fraunhofer, Western develops lightweight composite material that is mainly used in the automotive sector. The new research initiative in Hamilton will focus on cell therapy and immunology. The partnership between Western and Fraunhofer is the first comprehensive Canadian partnership with a German-based research firm. Funded by German taxpayers, Fraunhofer hopes to expand its Canadian presence beyond the Forest City. Western faculty members involved in the partnership weren’t

concerned with the expansion to Hamilton, despite the fact that London and Western have invested millions in the partnership. “We have our Fraunhofer project centre in composite material, at the advanced manufacturing site in London,” said Andrew Hrymak, dean of engineering at Western. “It’s a different Fraunhofer facility being proposed for McMaster [in] Hamilton.” The dean outlined the plans for the Fraunhofer initiative and explained that the project is progressing accordingly. It is currently “in the middle of the second phase of construction and addition of new equipment,” he said. “Fraunhofer is a bridge between research and applications,” John Capone, Western’s vice-president research, explained. Fraunhofer links research vto

applications, appropriate industry and sectors, to job creation and to new materials and processes. Capone explained that many companies come here to have access to the resources and the technology made possible by Fraunhofer. “Composite center continues to show success, to bring in contracts and companies into London,” Dan Sinai, associate vice-president of research at Western, said. “The fact that another Fraunhofer centre in a completely different area is in discussion with McMaster has no bearing on the Fraunhofer agreement we have here.” Sinai explained that there are over 60 Fraunhofer institutions, and “all 60 institutes are independently managed and able to make their own decisions.” “Just because they share the

name Fraunhofer, doesn’t mean they’re all the same thing,” Sinai said. He also insisted that Western and McMaster were not in competition over the new Fraunhofer initiative. Western leads the medical field in research in imaging, but yields to McMaster in the field of cell therapy and immunology. “To attract Fraunhofer, Western spent $4–5 million,” Capone said. “The whole project is close to $30-million, provided by different parties like $10-million from the city and the federal government.” There was, however, no expectation that all future Fraunhofer projects be in cooperation with Western. Capone said Western looks forward to future partnerships with Fraunhofer and other institutions in its own research areas of strength. Bill Wang GAZETTE

Tennis courts restored

Midori Kuwahara GAZETTE

ALL BACK TO NORMAL. The University Tennis Centre clubhouse, which was damaged by fire in the fall, has been restored. Though the tennis bubble was only down for 15 days, it took about 16 weeks to fix the clubhouse.

Olivia Zollino GAZETTE STAFF The University Tennis Centre has been fully restored and the facilities are back to normal after a fire damaged the clubhouse last fall. On October 8, 2013, a contractor was installing a new water cooler for the building when the fire broke out. The cause of the fire has been deemed an accident after the technician lost grip of the torch he was using and dropped it behind a wall, according to Mike Richards, tennis director of the UTC. “We ran into the clubhouse and the smoke started to come up through the windowsill, so we knew we were in big trouble here because we couldn’t stop it and the fire extinguisher could not stop the fire,” Richards said. The fire was confined to the clubhouse, causing no damage to the bubble. Everyone was evacuated and nobody was injured. Richards estimated that six to seven people were in the building at the time of the fire. The bubble was down for 15 days before active play was resumed. However, construction on the clubhouse took 16 weeks. Side entrances

to the bubble were used in order to keep classes and games from being disturbed. The biggest hindrance to the construction has been the rough winter, according to Richards. But besides a few small details that have to be fixed in the spring, the facilities are “up and running like normal,” he said. The renovations included a new clubhouse, washrooms, carpets, windows and reattaching the bubble to the clubhouse. “The insurance company is dealing with the financial cost — but it’s not small. I would say probably when this is said and done, $100,000,” Richards said. However, instead of dwelling on the accident, Richards is optimistic. “It’s kind of a rebirth,” he said. He noted that he doesn’t believe anything could have been done in order to prevent the accident. As for Western students, many recall the confusion they incurred for days following the fire. “The only thing we were affected by was our testing,” said Lindsey Wilson, a kinesiology student. The fire occurred at the end of the first quarter for kinesiology students, who had examinations

that week. Testing had to be moved around and the students were able to use the facilities at the Western Student Recreation Centre, Wilson said. “It was confusing because we didn’t know if we had class or not. Some people showed up the next day, some didn’t,” she said. “We were not notified as to what was happening.” Aside from the confusion, many students credit Richards with how he dealt with the ordeal. “Besides us not knowing what was happening, once we found out, Richards handled the situation well,” said Yousef Elsohemy, a kinesiology student who was enrolled in “Introduction to Tennis Skills” at the time. As for the current state of the Tennis Centre, Richards said there are no safety hazards and the facility is running smoothly. “We fought hard to get this back, so we’re excited and happy about it,” Richards said. “We appreciated all the support from the community. If anyone missed out this year, we will be back to normal next year. Come see us when you get back in September,” he added.

Discovering their voice and infinite beauty Play seeks to provide representation for women of colour

WOMEN OF COLOUR COMING TOGETHER. For Coloured Girls Who Have Considered Suicide/When the Rainbow is Enuf is coming to Western. The play seeks to provide representation for women of colour and provide solidarity through acting, dancing and poetry. For Women of Colour will be performed tonight and tomorrow night at 7:30 p.m. in Conran Hall and The Wave, respectively.

Casey Gazzellone CONTRIBUTOR For the first time in almost 20 years, the iconic play For Coloured Girls Who Have Considered Suicide/ When the Rainbow is Enuf will be performed at Western. The play is an exulting, powerful meditation on what the opening lines call the “dark phrases of womanhood.” Dealing with the upheavals of love, the desolation of loss and abandonment and everything in between, Ntozake Shange’s play is unsentimental as it explores difficult topics such as abortion, rape, HIV/AIDS, domestic violence, murder and trauma. Its performance at Western provides a stage to voice the lived experiences of women of colour. Eternity Martis, a fourth-year English Literature and Women’s Studies student is the director of For Coloured Girls. Martis reflects on the lack of representation of women of colour at Western. Her reflections are startlingly

comparable to the conditions surrounding Shange’s conception of the play in 1974. “When you look at anti-racist movements, they focus on representing black men. When you look at feminist movements, they focus on the experiences of white women. [The African Students Association] and [Black Students Association] bring the black community together at Western, but there is nothing on campus specifically about black women,” Martis says. “Black women always fall between a back man and a white woman.” The need for the expression of Black women’s voices was especially apparent to Martis when she saw how her cast responded to the script in rehearsals. Not only did the shared connection with the script create a community within the cast, but also by performing material the women could wholly identify with, they could embody their roles. Oyin Olalekan, a third-year

English and Psychology student who is playing Lady in Brown, articulates her personal experience as a cast member. “Being able to immerse myself in this role allowed me the opportunity to be a part of a story that spoke directly to me and gave me words for some of the emotions I have felt in the past,” Olalekan reveals. “In my experience, it’s not often that you see an all-female and coloured cast given the chance to make our story central which has been most exciting for me.” This engagement translates forcefully to the stage and the sense of urgency with which the cast approaches their individual pieces — and the play itself is illuminating in its attention to the physical, sexual and emotional traumas experienced by women of colour. Each character is named after a colour of the (metaphorical) rainbow, from “Lady in Brown” to “Lady in Purple,” and each woman wears a head wrap signifying their colour, and for Martis, linking them to

African roots and Black femininity. The rainbow in the title is Shange’s conception of a “coloured girl” as a “girl of many colours”. “A lot of times black women and black women’s experiences are boxed into one category. Black women are this, black women are that. They are very negative and historically embedded representations,” Martis says. “We have our own voice, we are part of the rainbow, and we are very different. We don’t have to be the same because we are black women. Even the term ‘black’ has come to be an umbrella term. Black crosses colour; there are many ethnicities and nationalities that are considered black and I think she is trying to show that dynamic.” The play is in the form of a choreopoem, a medium invented by Shange that involves a poem — really a series of 20 poems — that incorporate many different art forms, including African American dance and spoken tradition. Much of the spelling, pronunciation and

expressions in the play would be considered slang, dialect or “broken” English, but Martis sees the use of Ebonics as a struggle to reappropriate language and art forms from what in many cases has been subsumed by the dominant white culture. Neil Brooks, a professor at Huron University College who specializes in the construction of race in contemporary American literature, has supported bringing the play to Western since hearing about it last summer. “In addition to play’s artistic and political merit for the audience [having a play on campus with this title] foregrounds issues of race and of mental and spiritual health that are hugely important to the entire UWO community,” Brooks says. For Coulored Girls will be performed in Conron Hall tonight at 7:30 p.m. and at The Wave on March 9 at 7:30 p.m. Tickets can be purchased from Western Connections or at the door for $10 for students or $15 for the general public.

Suits

12 Years a Slave

The wait is finally over! Everybody’s favourite American legal drama, Suits, is returning tonight after its mid-season break. Suits’ last episode back in September left fans at a cliffhanger after Louis realizes Mike doesn’t have a Harvard Law School student file. With all the conflict between Louis and Mike at the beginning of this season, audiences just aren’t sure whether or not Louis will help Mike keep his secret or expose him to the world. Fans must also be excited to finally see Harvey in an actual relationship as he finally admits to Scottie that he wishes to have her in his life. Hopefully “Buried Secrets” will be able to meet all of fans’ expectations and explain some thus far unanswered questions.

12 Years a Slave is based on a true story of a man’s struggle for survival and freedom. The story is set in pre-Civil War USA and tells a story of a free black musician, Solomon Northup, from upstate New York who is tricked into slavery in the south. Northup faces cruelty from his slave owners and attempts to stay alive while retaining his dignity. During his 12th year of slavery, Northup meets a Canadian laborer whose kindness will change his life forever. As this year’s Academy Award winner for best picture, audiences can expect a great performance from this film.

GIRL — Pharrell Williams Pharrell has finally released his second album titled G I R L, eight years after his first album, In My Mind. “Happy” was the album’s first single which was released in the animated film Despicable Me 2, back in the summer of 2013, and has been able to stay at the top of the charts for the last couple weeks. This 10-track album contains appearances by artists such as Justin Timberlake, Miley Cyrus, Alicia Keys and Tori Kelly, just to name a few. iTunes describes this album as a “carefree soul throwback.” Listeners who prefer the R&B from the late ‘60s to the early ‘80s will definitely appreciate this album.

Mr. Peabody & Sherman Mr. Peabody is an extremely smart, talking dog who has adopted a young human boy, Sherman. With his most recent invention, Mr. Peabody decides to travel back in time with Sherman to re-experience world-changing events first hand. However, after breaking the rules of time travel, the two of them must act as the heroes to put things on track before the future is destroyed. In addition to saving the space-time continuum, Mr. Peabody must also face one of the greatest challenges of time, parenting.

“Neon Lights” —Demi Lovato This dance electro pop song was first performed by Lovato back on We Day in September 2013 but has only made it onto Billboard’s Hot 100 Charts these past couple of weeks. “Neon Lights” is certainly a standout track on her most recent album, Demi. This song is extremely catchy and listeners will be finding themselves humming along to it soon after they hear it. This song will be perfect for the times when you just want to just dance around your room.

Hang onto this during your next hangover Conrad Floryan GAZETTE STAFF If you’re a student at Western, chances are you’ve been hungover. Nothing feels better than a nice meal after gaining consciousness at 2:00 p.m. beside a new friend the day following a successful night out, and it’s crucial to make good eating choices in these situations. What are the best foods to alleviate a hangover? Ryan Rowell, deputy manager at Alibi Roadhouse, is no stranger to serving hungover students. To nobody’s surprise, they favour comfort food the morning after. “We’ve got what’s called a ‘Big Breakfast’ which is bacon, eggs, sausage and home fries. We’ve also got something called the ‘Hangover Burger,’” Rowell explains. “Those are the ones popular in the morning because it fills out your gut — kind of more greasy stuff.” While the selections at Alibi sound delicious and are great for buoying baggy-eyed spirits, they are not the best choices to relieve a hungover body. It’s an urban myth that greasy food is beneficial for hangovers, according to Ken Kirkwood, associate professor at the Western School of Health Studies. “Anything high in saturated fat is a bad idea. It’s really funny because the thing that we all did was after a

night at the bar, you’d stop at the poutinerie or the place with the worst food in the world for you,” Kirkwood says. “That has a benefit at the time to help you sober up a bit, but when you’re hungover it’s a bad idea.” Kirkwood recommends healthier options that may not satisfy post-drunk cravings as well as some mouthwatering bacon, but will have you feeling better in no time. “There’s certain research that says citrus is really valuable,” Kirkwood explains. “Basically, green vegetables are also really useful. Folic acid, vitamin C and other things like that are quite important so any vegetables rich in those things like tomatoes and so forth are really good choices.” Dehydration is the main cause of hangovers, so ensuring adequate rehydration is even more important than appropriate nutrition. Foods that provide significant fluid like soups and fruits are also key. “A lot of water is your best option,” suggests Anne Zok, nutrition manager at Western Nutrition Information Services. “You might want to consider a sports beverage because it has electrolytes — it has a little bit of sodium, potassium and calcium just to replenish your electrolytes. It has glucose as well to help get your blood sugar up so that might make you feel a bit better.”

Conrad Floryan GAZETTE

Bananas are another excellent source of electrolytes, as well as critical low-glycemic carbohydrates. “Anything with a low glycemic factor, meaning it doesn’t spike your blood sugar but provides long-lasting sugar levels, is also good because alcohol really spikes your sugar and one of the things you have to watch out for in the recovery phase is not to exacerbate

that, and go back and forth and eat something that gives you a longerlasting energy,” Kirkwood explains. What you eat and drink before and during a night out is often critically overlooked. “Going into an evening when you might be drinking, you want to make sure you don’t go on an empty stomach so you want to have a decent meal prior to going out,”

Steeped Tea is an online store that provides a wide range of delicious teas. Here are two of the popular teas from their catalogue:

Cherry Pie Rooibos I like to think I have a pretty strong sweet tooth, and I do enjoy some of the most ridiculously sweet treats imaginable, but my sweet tooth is no match for Steeped Tea’s Cherry Pie rooibos tea. This tea is almost painfully sweet with a kind of fruity taste that will leave you wanting to chase it with something to get rid of the sour aftertaste. Unfortunately, the tea’s smell and taste feels a little artificial. While to the nose, one will smell the unmistakable scent of cherry pie — the rooibos even captures the texture of the pastry — the taste is overwhelmingly cherry. Unfortunately, taste does not possess the same authenticity as the smell. Rooibos tea leaves tend to be slimmer than other varieties of tea

but this one’s leaves easily slipped through the infuser, resulting in having to spit out a few leaves when getting too far down in the cup. For anyone who loves cherry flavoured things or sweet, fruity teas, Steeped Tea’s Cherry Pie rooibos is about as definitive a tea as you can get. But if fruity teas are not your thing or you are very sensitive to overly sweet things then this tea will be like a Warrant song — it tastes good but it will make a grown man cry.

Coconut Calypso White Tea While the ingredients for this Steeped Tea lists coconut pieces, they must be putting some other kind of white stuff in it because it is as addictive a tea as any I have ever tried. I’m not even that into coconut but this tea is without a doubt one of my favourites. At time of writing, I have made three cups in the past hour, and am probably going to down a few more cups by the end

of this column. The smell is nothing special — it doesn’t have the same potency of smell as the Cherry Pie rooibos but its taste is a major selling point. The coconut flavour is delicious and provides a good character to this tea. The quality is definitely improved due to using actual coconut pieces rather than some kind of flavouring. However, this is a tea that really needs to be done in a pot — single cup infusion does not provide the same quality of taste. For single cup infusions, it is also advisable to let the tea sit for a bit after steeping, as the tea needs to cool more than your average tea for the best taste. Steeped Tea’s Coconut Calypso is a fantastic tea, great for drinking after a long, stressful day of classes or when trying to unwind. The smooth taste of this tea makes it likeable for anyone and a good start for those looking to explore white teas. — Brent Holmes

Zok says. “If you’re out drinking, alternate your alcoholic beverage with a non-alcoholic beverage so whether that’s water or a diet soft drink” No matter what you eat, ultimately avoiding a hangover is easier than dealing with it once it’s too late, Zok explains. “Preventing getting into that stage is always a good strategy.”

Opinions

Individual commitment to a group effort — that is what makes a team work, a company work, a society work, a civilization work.

– Vince Lombardi

Dry O-Week just Group projects have doesn’t work no place at Western The concept of enforcing an alcohol-free Orientation Week is well-meaning but flawed in practice. If the goal of O-Week is to welcome students to the school and facilitate comfortable adjustment to an unfamiliar new home, the prohibition of a social lubricant may be counter-productive. Encouraging sobriety in the first week of school does have its merit, though. It is valuable for students to have a clear mind during orientation events, such as programs that teach important lessons about safety, sex and consent. A dry O-Week does its best not to alienate those who wish to remain sober, and students should definitely feel that drunkenness is not a necessity. But while creating a safe and comfortable environment is a good idea, forbidding freshmen from indulging in alcohol just doesn’t work. Firstyear students experience their first taste of freedom during O-Week, and will naturally resist any attempt to be babied. Imposing a dry O-Week is a patronizing welcome, and disrupts all notions of independence that young adults expect upon arrival. For students to be released by the grip of their parents only to have their hands held by the administration will inevitably lead to resentment and rebellion. Those looking to adapt to their surroundings with a little help from lowered inhibitions will find a way to get their hands on liquor. Not all freshmen are underage, and even those that are can use fake IDs to circumvent the rules. This is not to say the alternative to a dry O-Week is a wet O-Week. Orientation events don’t need to serve alcohol, but organizers shouldn’t pretend that it’s not being consumed. To complement the existing programming, O-Week should include an added emphasis on responsible drinking. Freshmen would benefit from being advised to stay hydrated, be aware of their limits and stay with a group of people that they trust. Western has the power to prevent abuse by demystifying the allure of alcohol. Making drunkenness a forbidden fruit only leads to secretive binge drinking by those that can’t handle their liquor. Students want to be treated like adults, and the issue of alcohol abuse should be confronted with promotion of responsibility rather than prohibitionist prevention. O-Week doesn’t need to be dry to be welcoming and safe.

Seven Minutes in Kevin Kevin Hurren OPINIONS EDITOR Growing up, my parents often called me the “social butterfly” of the family. This was mostly because I’d always run off, wanting to meet new people. This desire to be in the middle of social situations didn’t subside when I went to high school, and it was part of the reason I became involved in so many clubs and other student organizations. Even now, whether it’s studying, eating or commuting, I prefer to be with other people. There is one instance, however, where I would much rather be left alone: Group projects. Group projects are, after all, the bane of many student lives. Even as I approach my final year at Western, I’m forced to team up with classmates for a grade. There are a few annoyances I have with assignments of this nature. To start, it is incredibly difficult to coordinate meeting times and discussion periods. Unlike high school, where everyone’s classes ended neatly at the same time, in post-secondary schools classes are scattered throughout the day. Add to that extracurricular activities, athletic responsibilities, long commutes, other academic tasks and work schedules — it becomes nearly impossible to fully gather group members, especially with larger groups. Work, specifically, is a big issue I have with group projects — as students who depend on extra income to even attend this institution are often punished for not having the flexibility to coordinate with a group.

Additionally, there are inherent problems with group projects we’re all familiar with. Certain members doing significantly more work than others, the awkward conversations that follow a difference in vision, and sometimes just sheer incompetence. Now, I understand why group projects are assigned. They are supposed to teach us how to work collaboratively and get along with peers. But these values just aren’t being imparted, at least not at this level of our education. In high school, when we were still shaping our educational and social habits, yes — group projects might instill positive traits. However, when you’re in your early 20s, thousands of dollars in debt, and attempting to derive significant meaning from overwhelming course loads, then no, “working with others” is not at the top of my priority list. To be quite honest, the sole reason I really think group projects are assigned is often because of presentations — with professors needing to fit a certain number of groups into a class and, therefore, cannot have 30 or so independent presentations. But is the cost really worth the gain? Is the amount of stress incurred by students really going to justify a 15 to 20 minute show of students talking for roughly three minutes each about a superficial topic that, really, the rest of the class isn’t listening to? The saddest part is that I’m not even mad people aren’t listening. We aren’t the trained, educated professors they came to study with, the material we cover probably won’t be on any exam or evaluation and we’re only going to scratch the surface of whatever topic we’re unfortunate enough to be assigned. So if you’re a professor, a TA or in any other kind pedagogical position, and you’re considering throwing in a group project “for fun,” don’t. Just don’t.

tweetoftheweek @TSNBobMcKenzie NOOOO!!!!!!!!

>> Roberto Luongo (@Strombone1) reacting to the news that new Florida teammate Tim Thomas had been traded to the Dallas Stars.

Rundown >> Western’s women’s volleyball team is raking in titles this week as right-side Stephanie Kreuter and middle Candace Scott were named OUA West all-stars, while setter Katherine Tsiofas was named to the OUA West all-rookie team.

Mustangs place second at nationals Western gets redemption with semifinal victory over Mac Daniel Weryha SPORTS EDITOR With a crushing defeat at the hands of the University of Alberta Golden Bears, the Western Mustangs men’s volleyball team captured silver at this year’s Canadian Interuniversity Sport national championship in Calgary. After falling to the McMaster Marauders in the Ontario University Athletics championship, the Mustangs looked to redeem themselves at the national level — and they did just that. The Mustangs kicked the weekend off with a 3–2 quarter-final win over the Trinity Western Spartans to set them up for a semifinal rematch against their Ontario rivals, the McMaster Marauders. With the OUA final loss fresh in their minds, the Mustangs were prepared for the rematch. After exchanging the first two sets, the Mustangs responded with a crucial third set comeback win that was decided with extra points. “Our philosophy in that third set, I mean throughout the whole game actually, was kind of just take it one point at a time,” Mustangs’ middle Phil James said. “Our biggest flaw against McMaster is that they get us into a rhythm and they kind of dictate the play.” Up 2–1, Western would not lose steam as they closed out the Marauders with a 25–20 win in the fourth frame to claim their spot in the finals. “McMaster is not a team to just slump because of their attitude. I think that we really kind of lowered their confidence however, and we just got some key points at the beginning of that set that just kind of made us take control,” James said. Against the Marauders, the Mustangs hit effectively and accurately. Garret May, the fourth-year

SILVER MEDALS HANG WITH PRIDE. The Mustangs’ men’s volleyball team won silver in the Canadian Interuniversity Sport Championship, only losing to the gold medal winning Alberta Golden Bears. Two Western players, Phil James and Garrett May, were named tournament all-stars.

off-side power, had an impressive performance with a team leading 21 kills in four sets for a .342 kill percentage. May’s production was rivaled by two other Mustangs who had over 10 kills in the game. Phil James and Justin Scapinello, Western’s middle and off-side, respectively, also contributed to a substantial portion of Western’s offensive production. The two players posted a combined 30 points and 24 kills to help lead the Mustangs to their semifinal win. For their performances, May and James were named CIS championship all-stars. The celebration, however, was short-lived. After an emotional victory over Trinity Western in the quarters, and the semifinal win over

It shows that first of all, we don’t necessarily need to be the highest flyers or you know, the biggest hitters to beat that team. I think that it’s a certain philosophy that our team needs to subscribe to. — Phil James

Mustangs’ middle

the Marauders, the Mustangs were swept in three straight sets by the Alberta Golden Bears in he final. “Beating Trinity, you know, it took so much out of us and beating McMaster it was something that took so much focus, so once we got to the last game I just think that playing a calibre team like Alberta, I think that on a given day we can put up a good fight but I think that to pull of something special three days in a row is virtually unprecedented and they didn’t have as tough of a final,” James said. Drained by their back-to-back games, the Mustangs failed to score more than 20 point in all three sets. The team struggled to hit consistently as only two players finished with over 10 kills.

The 3–0 final was not entirely a loss. Ranked sixth going into the weekend, the Mustangs managed to finish second, ahead of the OUA championship-winning McMaster Marauders. “It shows that first of all, we don’t necessarily need to be the highest flyers or you know, the biggest hitters to beat that team. I think that it’s a certain philosophy that our team needs to subscribe to,” James said. The men’s volleyball team finished the OUA regular season ranked second with a 17–3 record — losing two of their three to the first placed Marauders — captured silver at the OUA championships, and silver at the CIS national championships that marked the end of the 2014 season.

Sports Briefs

Schultz named new coach of XC team There is a new coach running the Western Mustangs cross-country program next season. The Mustangs cross-country team has named Guy Schultz as their head coach to guide the purple and white into the 2014–15 season. Schultz replaces veteran coach Bob Vigars who retired in December after serving as the team’s coach for 45 years. But Schultz is not new to Western. Since 2010, Schultz has been the team’s associate head coach. He was also an assistant coach with the team from 1995–97 and again from 1998–2004. Prior to his coaching career, Schultz was a Mustang himself, competing for Western’s

cross-country team in 1997 and was both a Canadian Interuniversity Sport champion and Ontario University Athletics champion. Along with being at the helm of the cross-country program, Schultz will continue to coach the long distance runners for Western’s track and field team. — Kaitlyn McGrath

Seven Mustangs invited to CFL combine It’s c-c-c-combine time for the Canadian Football League, and this year the event will be graced by the presence of seven Western Mustangs. The national combine will take place from March 21–23, and will feature the top 40 prospects eligible for the 2014 draft. The combine is held yearly in the months leading up to the CFL draft

and consists of physical and personal evaluations of top prospects. The seven Mustangs are led by linebacker Beau Landry, who is ranked as the seventh-best prospect by the CFL. The Kitchener native was ranked the top OUA prospect by the CFL in the fall and winter rankings, and was named to the first all-star team in 2013, as well as in 2011. He will be joined by receiver Brian Marshall and defensive end Dylan Ainsworth at the national combine. “This year we have initially invited fewer players to the national combine to provide us with more flexibility to invite players who perform well at the regional combines,” Kevin MacDonald, CFL vicepresident of football operations, said in a press release. — Aaron Zaltzman
