Hockey

SFU hockey travelled to the Ian Stewart Complex in Victoria to face the UVic Vikes, losing 8–3. UVic scored three quick goals in the first period, and despite goals by Taylor Piller and Mike Ball, the Vikes’ lead was too much to overcome. SFU now lies at third in the league with a record of 3–3–0.

Volleyball

Clan volleyball were awarded the Great Northwest Athletic Conference (GNAC) team of the week for their performance last weekend, notching a historic fourth place in the conference, and guaranteeing a winning season for the first time in the NCAA. They were not able to carry the momentum to Thursday night’s match, however, losing in Ellensburg, WA to the Central Washington University Wildcats, by a score of 3–1.

Swimming

The SFU swim teams set new records at the swim meet in Santa Cruz, CA. Eight different Clan swimmers set records: Saveli Yungman, Gabriel Lee, Junior Kiedrzyn, Tim Woinoski, Youn Ho Choi, Nicole Cossey, Alexandria Schofield, and Adrian VanderHelm who broke three records. The men’s team won three duals, only losing to the Division I University of the Pacific, while the women went 4–4. The teams will compete next at the Clan Cup International, held November 21 to 23.

University life has long been romanticized online. Education is largely a path to a better future, but inspirational study content can turn TikTok into a theatre for classism and self-hate.  These videos are revered for their aesthetic, though they tend to centre social privilege under the guise of elite work ethics. The neatly staged videos suggest an irrefutable correlation between discipline and rewarding outcomes. Instead of encouraging peers, StudyTok becomes another place for the privileged to flaunt and attribute their success to themselves entirely. TikTok has multiple other toxic “sides” focused on the embellishment of...
