Time traveller from the future tells men’s basketball team to “hang in there”

[BURNABY CAMPUS] – With rumors spreading that this may be the final season of the SFU men’s basketball team, a man from the future has come to deliver some cheerful news.  The man reports that, “the team will continue to stay below .500 for a few more seasons, but once the Trump presidency causes America to descend into another civil war, there will be no teams left to play against in the NCAA II division, therefore allowing SFU to win the championship by default.”

[SURREY CAMPUS] – The marketing department at SFU has decided to release a line of gashapon capsule toys.

Undergraduates who must engage in research participation as part of their coursework can now look forward spending hours being contorted into various positions by overeager graduate students.

I felt compelled to choose a career path which reflected my efforts and fit their expectations. Another factor for me was family — as the daughter of immigrant parents who left their homes, careers, and loved ones behind, I felt pressured to establish a career that honoured their sacrifices in their hopes of giving me a better future.  I loved subjects in the...
