Yesterday I received an email from the Office of Convocation. It’s almost time. So, with the threat and/or promise of graduation becoming a clearer and more prominent figure on the horizon, I’ve compiled a list of essential U of T…

An Atheist Love Letter to the Multi-Faith Centre

Posted on: March 15, 2012 Last updated on: March 15, 2012 Written by: jennifer Comments: 3
Sometimes, when the lull of a conversation seems to set in, I like to ask tricky questions: “Is God dead?” is one of my favourites. Part of this is me being sneaky and believing that the only way to break…

Revenge of the nerds at McGill Science Olympiad

Posted on: March 8, 2012 Last updated on: January 14, 2013 Written by: jennifer Comments: 0
I keep telling people at university that I was cool in highschool but that’s mostly a lie. The single counterexample for this is that I was a mathlete. That was as much a geekiness trump card then as my love…

We’ll end up where we belong

Posted on: March 1, 2012 Last updated on: March 1, 2012 Written by: jennifer Comments: 4

Posted on: February 9, 2012 Last updated on: February 9, 2012 Written by: jennifer Comments: 1
So, last Monday at around 10 a.m. after a very late night and a very early morning, my restless pursuit of coffee through the Bahen Centre was met with this: YES. It was like MY DREAMS HAD COME TRUE: my very own…

The politics of protest, power, and communication

Posted on: February 2, 2012 Last updated on: February 2, 2012 Written by: jennifer Comments: 0
“What are human rights? What is human dignity?…” And so began a panel discussion titled, “The Politics of Protest“, hosted by the Women and Gender Studies Students’ Union last Thursday at New College’s William Doo Auditorium. I don’t tend to…
