A variety of activities, speeches and games helped the UOSU and the University of Ottawa student body fundraise close to $4,000 dollars to help raise awareness for cystic fibrosis. Shinerama month continues throughout September.
Frosh week
Frosh week hookups are inevitable, and besides, they’re a lot of fun — but committing floorcest is a 101 Week taboo. Is the convenience worth the consequences?
Read on for the Fulcrum’s first-ever Campus Awards, and don’t be caught eating that crappy sandwich ever again.
So as you gear up with water bottles of liquor and handfuls of fast food for your big week, make us proud—don’t repeat our mistakes!!
In this Q&A, we cover the basics of consent, how to navigate consent when alcohol comes into the mix, and what the U of O can do to foster a consent culture in a time where rape culture on campus remains a major issue.
“The drinking age here is 18, which means that their Frosh Week can include more alcohol infused events and the majority of first years are allowed to indulge.”
Students are expressing their disappointment after University of New Brunswick associate vice-president academic Shirley Cleave sent an email out to students to say that, because of the risks associated with pub tours and the student union’s inability to insure the events, that they will no longer be allowed.
“I remember being in first year and going to see Sam Roberts Band or Bedouin Soundclash, and those are bands that mean a lot to me still.”—Max Kerman, lead singer of Arkells.
When building your bartending skills it’s important to have the right tools for the job.
If you’re looking for a bar in ByWard with an upscale feel, sans the pretentious patrons or wait staff, then look no further than Atari.
Thinking back, my Frosh week was a total blur of activities and meeting people, so much so that presenting it in a long form simply wouldn’t do it any justice.
But it’s hard not to get bored of the same old things that the university’s Food Services offers day after day. Luckily for you, Ottawa has a great variety of food choices right in the heart of campus and the surrounding areas.
The fireworks were set to be used on Sept. 12, as part of the closing ceremonies of the U of O’s 101 week at Mooney’s Bay. However, the event was cancelled due to poor weather conditions, and the fireworks remained unused.
Shad opened with his song “Hang On” before greeting the crowd, which had been steadily growing throughout the night, and went wild as the CBC Q host started his set.
Sex position of the week: The Linguini
1-No one cares
If you decide to slack off and not attend class, your professors and fellow classmates won’t care. What your peers will care about is the terrible habit you’ll make of constantly asking for notes for the classes you missed.
University is a time of friskiness, exploration, and hot steamy sex. Never again in your life will you be surrounded by so many hot’n’ready singles, so enjoy your time here while it lasts. I know I sure have.
People shouldn’t refrain from exploring new alcoholic beverages simply because of the colour of a label.

Last year I elected to monitor a first-year University of Ottawa student for a 12-month period, in order to properly gauge the physical toll that the university lifestyle has on students. The results may surprise—and horrify—you. Look if you dare.
