Look at the lesson our bravery taught us By Neil Palesh Fourth Year Business Student October 15, 2008 Some may recognize this title as a line from a rather popular off-Broadway musical titled “Children of Eden.” The play (very) loosely follows the first few chapters of the Bible dealing with Adam and Eve, then Noah and The Flood.
In the song, Adam in frustration looks at his current life with Eve and his children outside of the Garden of Eden, and in frustration proclaims, “Look at the lesson our bravery taught us.” This line is a reflective statement of his frustration with the choice he and Eve made in the past which created all the pain he’s experiencing in the present. >> | Know your rights: UWSA By Tiffany Gooch

If there was ever a time that it was imperative for students to know their rights, this is it. Without a full knowledge of the senate bylaws, violations could slip right under the radar and students will bear the brunt of this.
Your professor should have consulted with you before making changes to the syllabus. The key to a successful semester is to communicate with your professor. There are many options they can take advantage of to help make this a smooth transition for students but it is also your responsibility to discuss those with them. >>  | | Campus Kiss | | Green party overlooked By Bassam Lazar Third Year Law Student October 15, 2008 I commend The Lance for its latest election issue, clearly attempting to educate the students about some candidates and reminding them to vote.
However, after what seemed an insurmountable cause for the Green Party to have its leader participate in the leaders’ debate, not to mention with the thousands Canadians who pressured the politicians and the media in this cause, The Lance failed to place Elizabeth May’s picture on the cover along with the other leaders.
Present polls suggest the Green Party has around 13 per cent of national support.
The Lance should follow in the footsteps of the major Canadian TV networks in recognizing the legitimate and significant position of the Green Party in Canadian politics.. >> |
