School hosts Bök; bookworms got lots of joy

Mainstream, typical, and predictable: adjectives that do not even begin to describe Christian Bök. Instead, imagine a poet who would spend hours down in his basement designing a new brand of nerve gas to be sprung on the population. However, instead of chemicals, he uses the viral thing called language.

Di Brandt poetry reading

Following up a captivating poet like Christian Bok is no piece of cake, but Di Brandt certainly made a commendable effort during her visit to Redeemer on February 4th. She may have a small voice and gentle personality, but Di Brandt also has courage that would give Oz’s lion a run for his money. Di Brandt began her poetic career as a rebel, if you can imagine writing poetry to be rebellious, but in more recent years she has made some major changes to the way she views the Mennonite background she originally ran away from.

MONTREAL (CUP) – Since its release in December, *Avatar* is already the second-highest grossing film of all time, having passed the $1.3 billion mark earlier this month.

Without a doubt everyone is familiar with the recent Facebook trend whereby women were asked to change their statuses to reflect the colour of their bras, the claim being that this would “raise Breast Cancer Awareness”. Hmmm... I would argue that publicly declaring the colour of your undergarments not only fails to raise awareness but, in fact, detracts from the awareness of any cause. Modesty was thrown out the window in a primary school-esque diversion.

This past spring, I had the great pleasure of organizing a two month stay in Belize for Janice Haanstra, a fourth year Redeemer College student. When she first approached me, all I could sense was a very passionate Christian that wanted to serve God in Belize. Even though she was on her own, there was no fear on her behalf. She had no doubt that God was telling her to go. After sharing her heart with me over a coffee in the Redeemer’s Williams Pub, we began to put together the specifics.

The dying bachelor: the arts degree

By Chance McAllister The Strand (Victoria College, University of Toronto) TORONTO (CUP) – Earlier this year, a Toronto Star investigation found that sometimes all one has to do to get a degree is pay money. The Star had reporters go through some programs at small colleges across the GTA. They found that success could be had in the form of a degree without having to learn much of anything. This, it turns out, can be done at many bogus colleges for a tuition fee.

What's wrong with "Jennifer's Body?"

Most guys would probably answer, "nothing!" However, if one considers the film Jennifer's Body, rather than the anatomy of the character within the film, the answer “nothing” just doesn’t cut it.
