As some students amble into the school around 8:10 a.m. for an 8 o’clock class, whining about just how early they have to arrive, the 12-hour day shift of the security personnel started over two hours ago. With around 28 staff employed at Mount Royal security, there is always someone on campus to help.
“The officers [...]

Eight years removed from their inaugural season in 2002, the Calgary Roughnecks lacrosse team has established themselves as an important player in the Calgary sports scene.

As I sit writing this, only one Cougar team out of a possible six has the chance to medal for the remainder of the season. This comes of course with the exception of the Cougars’ soccer

Curling. For some, it’s a dull, lifeless sport consisting of an older crowd hanging out in turtlenecks and polyester pants.
For others, the strategy, the action and the curlers themselves (judging from the 2010 Olympic curling teams anyways) have made curling a hot attraction in the last few years for both young and old.

It’s very easy to complain about how bands never come to Canada. When an artist announces a “North American tour,” it’s usually a full tour of the United States with stops in Toronto, Montreal and Vancouver (if they’re lucky). For the most part, the rest of our great country gets overlooked, to [...]

Between school, homework and part-time jobs, it can be difficult
for a student to get a good night’s sleep.
Often, students feel that if they just spend an extra hour or two studying they can ace tomorrow’s
final, or if they work late into the night to finish that term paper, they’re sure to get a [...]

What goes better with a warm winter’s day than a mouthwatering, perfectly chilled pint of beer? Well for those of us who can’t get enough, the only thing better than a pint of beer is a pitcher.

The Canadian Liberated Urban Chicken Klub (CLUCK) has been meeting with the city in order to change a bylaw that prohibits their presence within city limits. The city considers the urban environment [...]
