Getting a rise out of fee raises:<\/strong> Writer Shelley Evans lamented the state of being a student in our January 10, 1994 issue, talking about the financial strain of those attending Camosun. In particular, Evans pointed out the raising of the Canadian Federation of Students fees that Camosun students were paying at the time. Speaking of fees raising, keep an eye on those British Columbia Federation of Students fees, as they\u2019re set to go from $1.14 per month per student to a maximum of $2.28 per month per student some time by the end of 2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Permanently talking about permaware: <\/strong>I was unfamiliar with the term \u201cpermaware\u201d before I started writing this column, but after reading the issues of the paper from 25 years back, I\u2019m incredibly, intimately familiar with it. The Lansdowne cafeteria found itself going back and forth between using permaware plates and cutlery (in other words, non-disposable items) a quarter-century back; in this issue, the Camosun College Student Society (CCSS) took out an ad opposing disposable plates and cutlery with the words \u201cStop environmental crime!\u201d loud and proud at the top of it. Which makes me wonder, where did this fight go and why did disposable end up being the default today?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Getting\u2019 boozy at Interurban: <\/strong>The story \u201cPubs coming to Interurban\u201d talked about how that campus was going to get a weekly pub night in the cafeteria, run by the Camosun College Student Society and volunteers. What do you think? Should there be a bit more booze on campus in 2019 or is it not a good combo?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
