Hey, SFU!

I’m a little unsure of these new school rules. We’re not allowed to write anything; SFU reps are taking my dictation right now, and it’s easy and makes me feel connected to the community!

I’m wondering if you can clarify the rules established this week, and I’m really excited for them!

Yours,

Hey Amnita!

Here’s a list of the new SFU school rules:

  1. All clothing must be either blue, red, or grey, same as the official school rations. On Wednesdays, students may wear any plaid dancing shoes, in spirit of SFU’s Scottish heritage! Dancing remains prohibited.
  2. Communicating with the levitating bear is permitted in the RCB Hall only.
  3. Surrey and Vancouver students are reminded that classes no longer exist in those campuses, as those campuses no longer exist. All AWOL students will be forgiven once tallied at SFU Burnaby.
  4. No hard-soled shoes on any gym floor.
  5. Communication with the infected Dr. Torsten Kehler is to be done at a safe distance of five metres, minimum (though nothing will stop those dad-jokes!). Same applies for all animated, recently infected professors. SFU is working on a reversal.
  6. Members of the Egyptian League of the Undead are a valued part of this community and will be given students’ sympathy and any available ankhs.
  7. Have fun!

Amnita, we’ve never been closer to understanding the complexities of Ursa Major, or the inner workings of Burnaby Mountain. Just today, in the mountain, we’ve reached lava! Neat! Our hearts go out to the four archeology students lost in the excavation.

Sincerely,

A transparent figure,

SFU Communications

What does it mean when doctors ask “are you sexually active?”

By: Noeka Nimmervoll, Staff Writer Content warning: References of sexual activities.  The wrinkling of paper underneath you as you sit atop the patient’s table. A cold stethoscope against your skin. The question, “are you sexually active?” These are all part of a regular doctor’s appointment, but one can be exclusionary if it’s being asked by someone who has a narrow and heteronormative understanding of sex. In the wide spectrum of human intimacy and relationships, what counts as sexually active? It seems the definition is different for everyone, and this reality is not reflected in a doctor’s checklist. For health-care to be truly inclusive, doctors should be more specific about what they mean when they ask, “are you sexually active?” Doctors ask about sexual activity ultimately with the...
