Commutes from heck are a common experience in the Lower Mainland, especially for students like myself who don’t drive. We rely on TransLink services to help us get around, and so we need our transit system to do better than the subpar service it currently offers. 

Let me paint a picture for you. I started working at a co-op over winter semester that begins every day at 8:30 a.m. It took 25 minutes to get there from my nearest SkyTrain station. So one would naturally think that I left the house at 7:50 at the earliest. Except no. Before I moved, every single day, Monday to Friday, I had to leave at 7:10 a.m. to catch a bus that only ran once an hour in order to reach the train. If I missed that bus it would have been an hour-long walk. On the first day of my co-op, I already knew that this bus was going to be the bane of my existence. 

Aside from the frustration of early alarms and stumbling to the bus stop half-awake while it was still dark out, the bus had serious consistency issues. Some mornings it would come super early or super late and I would have to cab to the train station. When I did make the bus, I would usually find myself squished against a window by other passengers. Since the bus only came once per hour, it meant that there was an hour’s worth of passengers on that one bus. It was uncomfortable. 

Ironically, part of the problem with the existing transit system is how popular it is. Ridership numbers broke records in 2018 with a rise of 7% over the previous year. Increases in service have not been able to match this pace, however.

The City of Vancouver has put forward plans to address public transportation over the long term through infrastructure improvements. However, the city does not have direct control over buses and trains. TransLink itself needs to put out a clear proposal on how it intends to address its inability to deal with increased ridership and bus consistency issues.

Unfortunately, federal funding gaps mean that TransLink is limited in what it can accomplish. However, despite these funding problems, TransLink could prioritize ensuring that current transit vehicles are consistent and arrive on time to avoid passenger build-up along the rest of the system. This short-term goal is critical because having even one bus arrive late or not arrive at all during peak hours or on busy lines can result in denial of service for hundreds of passengers, straining the already choked system.

Transiting students know what it’s like to be mashed into a jammed-full 145 or 95 bus when afternoon classes let out. Going forward, TransLink needs to evaluate how ridership increases are exacerbating the effects of passenger build-up. It’s one thing to have several more passengers getting on at a stop after a bus never shows up, but it is another issue when there are twice as many passengers already waiting for that bus. If TransLink does not start factoring in how the increased usage affects transit services, no other changes will be effective.

 

SFU student reports sexual harassment on campus from construction workers

“It started [happening] more frequently a few months ago.” 

“Construction workers would start whistling at me and catcalling me and saying ‘hey honey, hey baby.’ They’d ask me to give them a smile or something like that,” said SFU history student Robyn Jacques. She adds that there’s a new student residence being built next to McTaggart-Cowan Hall where a recent incident occurred.

“It’s happened more times than I can count on two hands [on campus],” said Jacques, adding that it’s also happened at Convocation Mall in the midst of heavy construction presence. “It was a bunch of men and when they were together, they weren’t afraid to say whatever they wanted,” She noted that it frequently happened on the small pathways that were made through the construction areas. “It’d be so easy for them to say something, and they did.” 

Jacques then elaborated on her mindset leading up to her Facebook post. “It just kinda boiled up to this point, where I was getting so upset [ . . . ] that I just had to bring it to light,” she continued. That was when she decided to post on social media about experiencing sexual harassment on campus. Jacques has previously been vocal about the importance of safety on campus through an online petition to preserve the campus shuttle connecting residences to FIC. 

Jacques wrote on her Facebook page: “I deeply wish that SFU would take the sexual harassment issues on campus more seriously. Ever since construction in residence began [ . . . ] I have faced sexual harassment from construction workers almost everyday.” 

“If I am just walking to class, I get whistled at and catcalled [ . . . ] Women on campus deserve to feel safe, especially for those of us who live here. It makes for an extremely unsafe environment and I have had enough! ACTION NEEDS TO BE TAKEN.”

Jacques’s post was widely shared and caught the attention of SFU Residence and Housing, who met with Jacques, assured her that they were taking the concerns she posted on social media seriously, and said any construction workers found to be harassing students would be “escorted off-site, and weren’t allowed to come back,” according to Jacques.  

They also followed up with an email to Jacques, the text of which she posted to Facebook: “Dear Robyn, SFU Residence is growing: there is ongoing construction and renovations occurring at or near all residences [ . . . ] We wanted to take this time and inform you that having additional individuals in our community and on campus can sometimes lead to inappropriate incidents [ . . . ] street harassment known as catcalling. 

“These occurrences are unfortunate and we are working with campus public safety to ensure the safety and comfort of our residents. Everyone in our community has the right to feel safe. No one should have to put up with inappropriate comments, touching, gestures or actions.”

Jacques did have second thoughts before posting, however. “It was difficult for me to talk about it because I feel like sexual harassment [ . . . ] especially in the ‘Me Too’ era right now, not a lot of people are taking women’s word for it,” said Jacques. “You can’t just say, ‘Oh, this happened to me,’ because not a lot of people will believe you. That’s what I was afraid would happen to me, but I’m glad it didn’t.” 

Paola Quirós, the coordinator of the Women’s Centre at SFU, frequently helps women who experience sexual harassment and violence on campus. “I think ‘Me Too’ has been very important [ . . . ] But just because Me Too is out there doesn’t mean that perpetrators and people that perpetrate rape culture in our society are more conscious about [sexual misconduct],” she says. “Many times, perpetrators are acting out of fear — ‘oh no, I don’t want anybody to say this about me’ — rather than acting out of ‘I shouldn’t do this.’”

Quiros praised Jacques courage in sharing her story on social media. “Many people think ‘this is performative,’ but no – It’s about being courageous in a society that still doesn’t believe people when they say ‘I have been harassed, I have been bullied, I have been sexually assaulted.’” 

She estimates that she helps students who have experienced sexual misconduct four to six times a month. 

“We wanted to create that space in our centre so that folks can start to have this conversation in a safer space,” she says, adding that the new Sexual Violence Support and Prevention Office (SVSPO) has also helped greatly opening the discussion about sexual misconduct on campus, and making it safer for students.

The SVSPO opened in February 2018 to support students who have experienced sexual violence and harassment on campus. The Peak also reached out to the SVSPO for comment on how they support students who come to them.

“We strive to provide individuals who access our support services with a personalized care plan that suits their needs,” said Dr. CJ Rowe, director of the SVSPO. 

“This may include: referrals to counselling and medical services, safety planning, academic concessions and workplace accommodations, self-care resources and assistance navigating on and off-campus resources.”

 “When an individual wishes to make a formal report to the University, to the RCMP, or local police, we provide assistance to that person so that they can make an informed decision about next steps,” they said. “We support the individual by accompanying them to make formal complaints with the police and RCMP (if desired) and will intake their report when they are interested in engaging in a formal university process.”

 Students who wish to access counselling and support services can call SFU’s Women’s Centre at 778-782-3870, SFU’s Health and Counselling Centre at 778-782-5781, or SFU’s Sexual Violence Support and Prevention Office at 778-782-7233. 

The Peak is continuing to look into the issue of sexual harassment and misconduct on campus. Should you wish to share your story (anonymously or not), please email the Editor-in-Chief at [email protected]

Fall Kickoff 2019 set to September 20 as ticket sales go live

At the July 25 board meeting, vice-president student life Jessica Nguyen announced that Fall Kickoff 2019 was scheduled for September 20. She also told the board that the event’s Facebook page and early bird ticket sales would go live the next day, July 26. 

“It’s a very limited number, they will be the cheapest ticket you can get,” Nguyen said. “The tickets will be $30 and that’s the cheapest it will go.” 

Fall Kickoff will be hosted in the Strand Hall parking lot near Blusson Hall. The SFSS has partnered with the production company Crescendo1 to put on the event. In a follow-up email interview with The Peak, Nguyen wrote that she was excited to be supporting a passionate small business through this partnership. 

“I found the owner, Johnny Black, had the same visions as me for Fall Kickoff so I knew we were going to be a great fit. Moreover, Crescendo1 was significantly more affordable than other companies so we were able to save some money there to re-allocate to other value providing services for students.” 

According to Nguyen, students can expect to hear more about the line-up in mid-August as details are still being finalized. 

“I am so excited to see this project come to fruition! This is the biggest Fall Kickoff that the SFSS will have ever hosted as the venue is much bigger this year,” Nguyen wrote. 

She encouraged the board to share the post on social media and otherwise promote the event, to engage with as many students as possible.  SFSS president Giovanni HoSang commended Nguyen for her and her team’s hard work and perseverance in putting the event together over the last few months. 

“It completely took over my life,” Nguyen joked when asked about the organizational process. “I think at this point, I live, love, breathe Fall Kickoff haha! There is a lot that goes into the logistics and behind the scenes planning to ensure that we bring a safe and fun event to the students. In addition, there were a lot of unforeseen hurdles that my team and I had to leap through. Fortunately, the team I hired for Fall Kickoff has been more than amazing and I could not imagine a better group to be working on this major project with.”

The Peak asked Nguyen if she had a favourite Fall Kickoff memory, and she recalled the 2015 Kickoff on her first year at SFU. 

“I actually went with VP External, Jasdeep Gill, so [Fall Kickoff] has a big sentimental value for me! I don’t remember who the artists were but what I do remember is having lots of fun with her and my other girlfriends!” 

Nguyen is positive that this year’s event will be just as fun, and emphasized the importance of students getting their tickets early. Once early bird tickets are gone, tier 1 tickets will be $35 each, tier 2 tickets will be $40, and tier 3 tickets will be $45. VIP tickets will go for $75, and public tickets will be available to non-SFU students 19 years old or over for $50. Nguyen specified that VIP tickets were reserved for SFU students. 

This will be the first Fall Kickoff since 2017, as the 2018 event was cancelled due to logistical errors and replaced by a partnership with UBC’s week of welcome event. More details will be released as September approaches.

We’re supposed to be diversifying our ideas at university, not closing them off. Illustration: Jarielle Lim/The Peak

By: Kitty Cheung, Staff Writer

Beedie snobs. Snowflake GSWS students. Useless arts degrees. Why are these stereotypes and criticisms so familiar? These snap judgements are an indication of callousness between students of different departments. But university should be a place to learn about diverse ideas. Particularly at SFU where, through our WQB requirements, we’re supposedly pursuing a more well-rounded, open-minded education. So why the malice? Students should be able to appreciate all other disciplines offered at the university. 

Questions of “What do you study?” or “What’s your major?” should not transform one side of the conversation into an open target. It can be pretty damaging to make others feel insecure about their choice of study, particularly for first-year students who may have come to university immediately after high school. 

For these students, their intended programs were a decision that they made while in high school, which is often way too young to decide your life track, professional future, career destiny, or whatever it is that you want to do with your life (even if, spoiler alert, you are not your degree). To have your university experience begin with this choice being doubted by nearly everybody you meet is a repetitive and exhausting ordeal. 

It’s also important to realize that a major is not a ball and chain. We are not tied to our degrees; more and more people today are pursuing cross-disciplinary careers. This makes already confrontational comments such as “What are you going to do with that degree?” relatively dated and obsolete. 

Speaking from the perspective of a student who started in arts, I recall getting the aforementioned question quite often. The implication is that what you’re studying isn’t important, or valued. However, the world’s challenges are rarely certain or straightforward, making the breadth of understanding gained in an arts degree valuable in navigating life’s many ambiguities.

For those who can’t see the value in different disciplines, if your immediate response is to mock and belittle different fields of study, you’re going to have trouble surviving in the professional world. Often times, collaboration between different fields is required for meaningful work or projects, whether that be a combination of critical thinking and writing skills honed in arts, scientific research abilities, technical knowledge, business sense, or other fields. 

It would be ridiculously disrespectful to bad-mouth someone’s area of expertise in a professional work environment, so why practice these foul habits at school? We all came to SFU or FIC to pursue higher education, and so we should be able to respect the different fields which our fellow students choose to dedicate their time towards. 

I do not intend to imply that SFU should become some harmonious circle with students of different majors all holding hands and dancing around the AQ pond. However, university life could benefit from more respect between students of different departments.

Long story short: I have mixed thoughts about my study abroad experience

Studying abroad has been the defining experience of my short life so far. It has been a little over a year since I left England and the University of Essex to return home, and in that year, I have realized more and more how important that experience was to who I am now and who I will be in the future. It has become a cliché to refer to an exchange as life-changing – it is loaded language with emotional implications. Without the pretentiousness, it simply entails that exposing yourself to unfamiliar experiences acts as a catalyst for your mind to evolve into one of its many forms that it will be in your life. And that’s what it served as for me. 

Coming from an Indian household with a joint family, I have always had a surplus of people in the house. It has not been the easiest experience and definitely not the smoothest, but it groomed me into the person I am today. Going against the grain in my family is something I have continuously done my entire life, but deciding to study abroad was a decision like no other. I would go from living in a household of a dozen people to living without them. The change became even more drastic when I decided to live off campus, alone.

In a way, I wanted to test myself and follow through with my aspirations of moving out into the world, leaving the comforts of home. The aspect of living alone that I was most prepared for was cooking for myself, as I have been cooking all my meals for a couple years. It is the reason I decided to live off campus, because I needed a kitchen. However, living alone was extremely lonely, not only because I was far away from the friends I had made at the university but also because I was in a long-distance relationship. Not having the presence of family, friends, or the girlfriend with who, I was in the early stages of a relationship made for a complicated set of circumstances that shaped my experience studying abroad.

I had to grow up, fast.

Being raised in a household with so many people, I did not always have to rely on myself. Living alone, I quickly learned how different it was. Although I had access to the washer where I was staying, I had to air-dry clothes from the months of January to March (Imagine the weather during that period!)

Having to take into consideration that I was only one person and buying groceries for a few days was not ideal, I would have to make multiple trips to the grocery store in a two-week span. The bus schedule in the small town I lived in was irregular at best, and I lived a 20-minute walk away from the nearest grocery store.

The irregular bus schedule was never more evident than it was on the day it snowed to the point of the buses and taxis being unavailable. It just so happened that the day this transpired, I had planned to go to London, and had bought my ticket weeks earlier. Nonetheless, I managed to get to the train station – by hitchhiking three different times. I had never hitchhiked prior to that day. What is unfortunate about the train system in England is that the tickets are non-refundable, and having arrived an hour late, I had to purchase another rather expensive ticket that was not exactly within my budget. (This happened to me more than once during my time there, albeit in different circumstances.)  

It’s not that having to walk for groceries, air-drying clothes in musky, cold weather, and unreliable transportation were singularly so difficult that it severely affected by time abroad. It was the totality of the situation. 

The cherry on top during my time abroad was the month-long strike professors of the university went on. It is not that their strike was aimless as there were valid arguments on their side of the war for a competitive wage and benefits. It just could not have come at a worse time. My education was already being hampered by having to balance too much all at once; this was the nail in the coffin. As much as the effort I put in, I received the worst grades of my life. Not that I was surprised. 

By the end of my time abroad, I was ready to go home. I did not travel as much as I would have preferred to, and I could have stayed longer to do so, but the financial burden was too much to swallow. That is the aspect of living alone that hit harder than I expected. Although I was aware that watching my expenses was something I had to do, I was not prepared for it.

But most of all, I missed home. I missed my family, I missed the vast expanse of beautiful landscape in Canada. I missed my girlfriend. Being in a long-distance relationship while studying abroad was the most difficult experience I have ever had. My mind was torn between two places – reveling in the experience of going to a university in a foreign country and wanting to be around her, which was exciting in its own right. I thought about her every day. Although we communicated heavily, it still took a toll on my mental health. Our relationship withstood the time apart, but not without near-crippling struggles along the way.

Having lived the experience and processed it throughout the months that passed, my thoughts on my time abroad swayed from negative to positive, back and forth. From time to time, I still think about certain events that transpired and if I could go back, would I change them?

In all honesty, I would not.

I went through struggles in England that nearly crippled my mind. But if I continued to live in the past after I arrived home, that would have truly done so. Reflecting on my time abroad in this article is a way in and of itself of letting go of that regret. When I do have the opportunity to move out again,  I will shape the experience not only through what I have endured but, more importantly, through the present and future I want for myself.

Carly Rae Jepsen delivers dedicated emotion

I love Carly Rae Jepsen. Since I started really listening to her a few months ago on a whim, I have been obsessed with her music. I discovered Emotion just in time to prepare for her newest drop Dedicated — and you can bet that I’m more than ready for her concert in August. But for all the critical acclaim of Emotion, Dedicated has not been received with the same critical success — which I don’t think is really justified.

Emotion had thoroughly impressed me with Jepsen’s growth from the saccharine pop music of Kiss (2012) to a more sincere, potent sound that you could put on and groove to anywhere.  Emotion was thematically cohesive, pairing the ‘80s-inspired tracks with a vulnerability unique to Jepsen’s style.

“Run Away with Me,” the intro track to the album, starts with an iconic saxophone tone that gets the listener revved up and ready to listen to more. The whole song is escapist, feeling much like the initial brushes of infatuation with a new lover. It is completely fantastical, and it’s a great opener for the often dreamy feeling. When Jepsen beckons me to run with her, I feel compelled to follow.

“Warm Blood” is one of the tracks that I pinned immediately for having a smoky, moody vibe of the album’s numerous colourful tracks. The lyrics feel visceral, and are both fun and a little creepy at the same time. When talking about the song, Jepsen originally intended for the hook to be “Warm love, feels good,” but when she sung it to her producer, Rostam Batmanglij, he heard it as “warm blood”. Since then, the hook stuck, and I’m glad for that — the hook evokes a more tangible, physical image that really makes the song stick.

My personal favourite of the album, though, is “All That.” The whole song has a tinge of yearning to it, and where “Warm Blood” beckons the listener more sensually, “All That” has a vulnerability that is deeply relatable. Compared to the flirty lead pop single, “I Really Like You”, “All That” is honest and unsure. In these lyrics, Jepsen pleads to be a supportive pillar and confidant. 

Dedicated is a very different album. Where Emotion is more romantic and dreamy, Dedicated feels more melancholic. When talking about what the album is inspired by, Jepsen said, “I think the album goes through that process of like, ‘shit, what do I do now?’ And, at the same time, singlehood for the first time in a while, which I’m kind of new at! So there was an arc of like, full-on heartbreak to a new story.” Where Emotion had encouraged the listeners not to dwell in these feelings and to run, Dedicated feels like Jepsen is actively exploring the realistic and uncomfortable matters of the heart.

Dedicated’s opening song, “Julien”, lingers on the listener. Jepsen sings about how “haunted [she] is by [their] time” in the song, and for a subject that would normally warrant a piano ballad, “Julien” is a track that the listener is compelled to groove with. The synthesizers give a futuristic and funky feel to the song that echoes through the album. This song sets the precedent for the general theme of yearning for a lover that isn’t present.

Once again, Jepsen teases her sensuality in the lyrics of the songs, though Dedicated feels like a more overt take on it. “No Drug Like Me” echoes a darker version of Emotion’s “I Really Like You” by emulating the dizzying highs of a crush. The song also feels like “All That” as Jepsen dares her lover to reveal more of themselves to her, and her to them. “If you make me feel in love, I’ll blossom for you,” then, explores the opening stages of a relationship where lovers are learning to be vulnerable with each other.

Though I adored “No Drug Like Me” upon first listen, “Real Love” is the one that has really grown on me. It feels like the loneliest song on the album, where Jepsen begs for real love in a world where she “just doesn’t know who to trust sometimes.” Like the rest of the album, Jepsen still has me bopping my head and dancing to the pre-chorus as the lyrics cut to my core. This feeling of melancholic longing over a dance beat brings Robyn’s anthemic “Dancing on My Own” to mind, and I adore it.

Although Dedicated took longer to grow on me than Emotion did, I’ve gotten a real appreciation for it over the last few weeks. Jepsen proves that she is not afraid to experiment with her sound in Dedicated, and not just pop out Emotion 2.0. My early assessment of Jepsen as a typical teen pop artist for “Call Me Maybe” had been shattered when I listened to these tracks, as I realized that these songs were made for confused adults still experimenting with love and still trying to navigate it. Jepsen’s genuine lyrics continue to set a high standard in my heart, and I look forward to everything she touches in the future.

Album versus Album: Billie Eilish’s Don’t Smile at Me and When We All Asleep, Where Do We Go?

Don’t Smile at Me (2017)

As Billie Eilish’s debut EP, Don’t Smile at Me offers a first glimpse into the artist’s twisted and dark storytelling. This alternative pop EP has impressively high-quality production considering that most of the tracks were produced at home by Eilish and her brother, Finneas O’Connell. It brings a whole new dimension to bedroom pop. 

“my boy” and “bellyache” stand out as catchy and upbeat jams with a cynical tone, whereas “idontwannabeyouanymore” vocalizes Eilish’s mental health conflicts in a sorrowful and soulful manner. Listening to this EP, it is clearly coming from a younger Eilish, an artist whose work is constantly changing, and, in my opinion, only getting better.

When We All Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go? (2019)

When We All Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go? is Eilish’s heavily anticipated debut album. This body of music transitions between upbeat bops and more serious, slow-paced melodies. If you want a high-energy, danceable song, I would recommend “Bad Guy” or “you should see me in a crown.” With nods to modern trap, hip-hop, and electropop, jamming to these tunes will make you feel gloriously badass. 

Meanwhile, softer and more serious tracks such as “xanny” and “listen before i go” are more suitable for contemplative listening sessions. “xanny” showcases Eilish’s self-awareness in toxic friend groups and criticism of peer pressure, while “listen before i go” is written as a sombre suicide letter, which again talks openly and starkly about Eilish’s mental health struggles. The last track, “goodbye,” incorporates lyrics from all other songs in the album, drawing this body of work to a hauntingly beautiful close.

Verdict

To compare these two works, I would have to say that When We All Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go? is a more heartfelt display of this artist’s creative maturity. This album shows both her and her brother’s growth in their lyricism and production abilities. 

An interesting aspect of both works is their quirky and creative incorporation of audio clips. For example, there’s the sound of matches being struck which forms the beat of Don’t Smile at Me’s “watch.” While this creative touch resonates well with the song’s narrative, the audio clips in When We All Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go? are much more thoughtfully incorporated. To illustrate, the sounds of children cheering in “wish you were gay” and the audio from the television show The Office found in “My Strange Addiction” result in more comical, ironic, and emotionally affecting significance. 

Overall, Don’t Smile at Me is still a fun and cynical teenage EP, but When We All Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go? demonstrates the growth of a young artist worth watching.
