Students sweating
over summer jobs
Julian Uzielli
news ediTor
Times are tough for students look-
ing for summer jobsjust ask
Jason Horlick.
Im 0-for-14 for interviews to
applications, the frst-year Ivey
student lamented. I would as-
sume it has to do with my resum
and cover letter, but without any
feedback, I dont know exactly what
is wrong with those.
This is the frst interview Ive
had this whole recruitment cycle,
he quipped.
Many students tell the same
storyno matter how many ap-
plications they send out, no em-
ployers seem interested. In some
cases, as Horlick suspected, the
problem may lie with the applica-
tion itself. In others, it may be that
the industry to which students are
applying have been hit hard by the
economic downturn, and simply
arent hiring as many people.
Obvious resum faux pas in-
clude spelling and grammar mis-
takes, but students should also
strive to personalize their appli-
cations, Gerry Goodine, a career
counsellor at Westerns Student
Success Centre, explained.
Often times what happens is
[students] produce the one-size-
fts-all resum, and that doesnt
make you stand out. It doesnt
make a direct connection between
you, your skill set, your education
and your experience for the posi-
tion youre applying for, Goodine
said. Thats one key thing that I
think is a very important step to
be takingto make sure that your
application documents have been
founded and based on good solid
research on the kind of work you
want to do, and on you.
For those employers who do
call for an interview, the way you
conduct yourself is just as impor-
tant as the application, Rick Eze-
kiel, one of the people involved in
hiring students for the summer
academic orientation program,
explained. Its very visible when
peope are [] really in it and are
valuing what theyre doing and are
being themselves and are comfort-
able, compared to those who are
trying to show us what we want to
see. So being yourself and being
comfortable in the interview is re-
ally important.
Like many students, Horlick
found previous summer jobs he
was able to return to through con-
nections with friends and family. I
had a summer job that I returned
to for the past two summersI
worked at a property management
company, and I returned to that
job from one summer to the next,
he said. But often it can be daunt-
ing to fnd a job without relying on
connections, as Horlick is doing
nowhe said it was signifcantly
more diffcult, a sentiment many
students will share.
Goodine explained its possible
for students to start making con-
nections right here at Western.
Weve got two big [events]
coming up right now. Weve got the
job expo, which is happening in
February, and we have also the stu-
dent to business networking event,
S2B, he said. [At] those two events,
you automatically have an oppor-
tunity to meet face-to-face with
employers.
The most important step stu-
dents can take to secure summer
positions is to start applying now, if
they havent already, Goodine said.
Start now. Start preparing your
documents, start networking, start
exploring.
Class size a big issue
Cameron Smith
GazeTTe sTaff
Size does matter for faculty at the
University of Toronto. In Novem-
ber, the Canadian Union of Public
Employees 3902, which represents
over 4,000 teaching assistants,
voted with a majority to strike if
their requests for more reasonable
class sizes were not met.
We had a 91 per cent strike
vote, and this is the highest vote
weve ever had, John Nugent,
spokesperson for CUPE 3902, said.
It really speaks to the concerns of
our members.
Class sizes at U of T have been
on the rise for several years, and
have fnally reached levels de-
manding action.
This is a problem thats getting
worse. In 2006, we had 40 per cent
of tutorials that had less than 20
students. Now thats down to 23 per
cent, Nugent explained. A quarter
of all tutorials at U of T are over 50
students and we have 100 tutorials
that have over 100 students.
According to Nugent, the prob-
lems with large classes were nu-
merous and varied. Enormous tu-
torials meant less attention from
the teaching assistants, leading to
a decrease in the overall student
experience, and a stressed and dis-
satisfed faculty.
This is unacceptable at a uni-
versity that really needs those
small intimate learning environ-
ments. With these large tutorials,
youre just running between stu-
dents, youre not answering ques-
tions, Nugent said. We feel that
having a smaller class size is just
the way to go.
Though CUPE 3902 believes
larger classes are detracting from
student and faculty experiences,
the Higher Education Quality
Council of Ontario argued the ef-
fectiveness of the teacher can
counter the large size of university
classrooms.
There is no guarantee that [a
reduction in] size on its own will
guarantee a good learning experi-
ence or a bad learning experience,
Richard Wiggers, research director
for HEQCO, explained. No mat-
ter what, its the quality of teaching
that matters at all times.
Wiggers did acknowledge that
class size can have an effect on stu-
dent experience, especially with
students used to having intimate
time with their teachers.
One of the problems youre
going to have [with large classes]
is contact time between teachers
and students, Wiggers explained.
Students are often shocked with
how little contact time they have
with their faculty.
Despite this, HEQCO studies
have shown students will appre-
ciate their learning experience no
matter the class size as long as the
teacher is engaging.
You can have large classes with
very effective methods of teach-
ing, Wiggers said.
According to HEQCO, though
hiring more teachers to reduce
class sizes is a solution, it was sug-
gested the focus be on the quality
of the faculty rather than the quan-
tity of it.
You can hire more faculty, but
you have to make sure they have
a passion for teaching, Wiggers
said. Simply hiring more people is
not the solution.
One solution teachers are
adopting is the use of the Internet
to develop connectivity with their
students they would not normally
be able to achieve in large class-
room settings.
There is an effectiveness that
can be built into some social
media, Wiggers concluded.
often times what
happens is [students]
produce the one-size-
fts-all resum and
that doesnt make you
stand out.

yorks president
demoted to undergrad
If you are an undergraduate stu-
dent at York University and won-
dering what it is like to be presi-
dent, you are in luck. The winner
of the president for a day contest
will get to see what being president
is all about. The contest asks for
written or video essays discussing
what the top three priorities for the
president should be.
Ijade Maxwell Rodrigues, chief-
of-staff in the presidents offce
at York University, explained she
asked York University President
Mamdouh Shoukri, What would
you think of swapping roles with a
student? A student [can] see what
its like to be a president while you
have an opportunity to see what
being an undergraduate is like in
2012.
Shoukris response was imme-
diate interest, and after similar en-
thusiasm was shown by student
groups, the president for a day
contest was launched last Friday.
The winner will take on the
presidents responsibilities for a
day, which will include giving a
welcoming address at an on-cam-
pus event, touring a building under
construction, and participating in
a fundraiser.
President Shoukri will also have
his hands full. Whether it be taking
notes in class, working a shift for
an on-campus job, or even run-
ning laps at an athletic practice,
President Shoukri will do whatever
is required of the student he will
swap with.
Two student videographers will
follow the day of the swap on Feb-
ruary 28, and footage will be re-
leased soon after.

LtC enters 21st century
Sick of those old, stale, mustard
yellow bus stop signs? Are you
looking for a new, modern look to
Londons bus stops? In that case,
the London Transit Commission
has good news for you, as bus stop
signs across the city are to receive a
slick renovation.
The signs have been there for
many decades, John Ford, direc-
tor of transportation and planning
at the LTC, said. It was time for a
change.
The old signs are being replaced
by new signs with a number to an
interactive voice response sched-
ule information system, which can
be accessed on riders cellphones.
This system will be facilitated by
new identifcation numbers at each
stop. By simply reciting the stop ID
number via the LTC information
line, potential passengers can ob-
tain real time information regard-
ing the next three buses coming
to the stop. Stop ID numbers will
be posted on the LTC website for
reference.
Its really a customer service
initiative so people will have a bet-
ter understanding of the service
available at that stop, Ford said.
The new signs have more infor-
mation, more consistent informa-
tion, and theyre nicer looking.
Look for the new signs to ap-
pear at the most frequented bus
stops over the next few weeks.

western Shines(erama)
Western was given the annual
countrywide award of best overall
Shinerama school this year by the
Canadian Cystic Fibrosis Founda-
tion. The award is in recognition
of exceptional efforts by schools
that campaign to raise money and
awareness for cystic fbrosis.
Jon Silver, charity head soph,
stated Westerns campaign efforts
were noticed this year because of
efforts by Shinerama organizers to
completely revamp the program.
We didnt raise a fgure much
higher than previous years. I sus-
pect one of the reasons we did so
well was because we reworked our
Shinerama day, we had a rally and
brought in speakers, Silver said.
He also explained he believes
the foundation was more inclined
to award campaigns that worked
hard to educate students on the
disease rather than the school that
grossed the most money.
Although the $95,000 that West-
ern managed to raise for Shinerama
this past fall was substantial, orga-
nizers believe the improved effort
to inform frst-years on cystic f-
brosis through orientation week
events and the creation of a web-
site for the issue was crucial.
Silver explained the award
is a challenge to further im-
prove the charity campaign
and reclaim the annual award.
Next years team is going to have
to focus on not only how to inno-
vate but how to have the whole
process run more smoothly, Silver
said.

University students
may need to trade up
College grads more employable
rapid transit sped up by USC
Gloria dickie
news feaTures ediTor
The University Students Council is
lobbying city hall to make bus rapid
transit a priority in the future.
On Tuesday evening, Patrick
Searle, vice-president university
affairs for the USC, delivered a
presentation to Londons strategic
priorities and policy committee
discussing the role of Western stu-
dents in the city.
What the USC believes is that
students are citizens of London
frst, and students at Western sec-
ond, Searle said.
In order to strengthen graduate
retention in London and provide
convenient transportation for cur-
rent students, Searle called upon
city hall to get on [bus rapid tran-
sit] now.
At $13.5 million a year for the
next ten years, Searle acknowl-
edged it was an expensive program
to implement, but felt it was perti-
nent for London to compete.
[Other major cities] are invest-
ing in progressive forms of trans-
portation. And those are the types
of things students are looking for
when theyre choosing where to
live after graduation. Theyre look-
ing for a city that cares about being
green, theyre looking for a transit
system that works for them, Searle
observed.
And while $13.5 million over 10
years may seem like a huge invest-
ment for the city, Joe Swan, Ward
3 councillor, said such a project
would also show signifcant sav-
ings in other areas such as road
construction, bridge construction
and health care.
Infrastructure for bus rapid
transit often involves simple im-
provements like dedicated bus
lanes and ensuring traffc lights
move consistently with buses.
Swan explained this technique
to be similar to how emergency
vehicles worktraffc lights would
turn green as a bus approached the
intersection, enabling buses to ar-
rive at their destinations faster.
In its current state, Swan felt
Londoners were not happy with
the citys transportation system.
It simply takes too long to
get from point A to point B, he
lamented.
However, while Searle put forth
the argument that bus rapid tran-
sit would entice graduates to stay
within the citys boundaries, Swan
felt it was an enticing project for
other reasons.
I think it will be a beneft, but
I think other arguments about the
environment and improving pub-
lic health [...] are the winning argu-
ments, he said.
Currently, bus rapid transit is
included in the citys 2030 trans-
portation master plan, but head-
way is already being made.
I think this city council is quite
committed and dedicated. I dont
think its something thats far away
from being donewere taking
steps right now to make it a real-
ity, Swan said.

Everyone knows about todays
bleak youth job market, whether
from the news, failed summer job
applications, or a quip about fip-
ping burgers with your arts degree.
Nervous high schoolers all the way
to anxious upper-year students all
have the same question on their
mindshow can I get a good job
after graduating?
According to the Ontario Min-
istry of Training, College and Uni-
versities, going to college might be
a good bet. The ministry analyses
data from 190 different occupa-
tions, and publishes data every fve
years on where it predicts the job
economy will grow.
The ministry says that 35 per
cent of new jobs will require post-
secondary education less than a
university degree, like a college
diploma. Some of the most com-
mon areas of employment for this
education bracket are paralegal-
related occupations, user support
technicians, dental hygienists and
therapists, early childhood educa-
tors, electricians, chefs, plumbers,
and refrigeration and air condi-
tioning mechanics.
With college, its an applied
learning environment, so gradu-
ates enter the workforce job-ready.
They have real world, hands-on ex-
perience, Leanne Perreault, a cor-
porate communications spokes-
person at Fanshawe College, said.
I think that there are all sorts of
programs that seem to be quite
timely in terms of the needs of the
economy. Technological areas, IT
and gaming programs, and any-
thing to do with healthcare are very
sought-after courses right now.
Only 26 per cent of new jobs will
require a university degree. Despite
this low fgure, the ministry cited
several sectors available to univer-
sity graduates, most in healthcare.
Specialist physicians, physiother-
apists, occupational therapists,
software engineers, general prac-
titioners and family physicians,
information systems analysts and
consultants, pharmacists, civil en-
gineers, social workers and regis-
tered nurses were all said to have
the best job prospects within oc-
cupations that require university
degrees.
Although employment in uni-
versity-level occupations is ex-
pected to grow at a faster rate, the
absolute increase in employment
is expected to be higher in occu-
pations that require college or ap-
prenticeship level education. This
is because the level of employment
was higher to begin with in college
or apprenticeship occupations,
Tanya Blazina, a media relations
representative with the ministry,
explained.
The ministry also stressed that
managerial jobs, which require
considerable education and train-
ing, will solely account for a full
nine per cent of new jobs. It sug-
gested the positions with the best
prospects for 2013 would be man-
agers in healthcare and computer
and information systems.

oh, you hate your job? why didnt you say so? Theres a support group
for that. its called eVeryBody, and they meet at the bar.
drew Carey
Even though winter is only just beginning to rear its
frosty head, its just about the time of year when stu-
dents tend to frantically scramble in search of a sum-
mer job. Its especially diffcult to get a job in London,
but even elsewhere its quite a struggle. With tens of
thousands of students leaving school for the same
four months, there is a healthy amount of competi-
tion to score summer work.
Reading week is often used by students as the time
to get what they think is a head start on the hunt, but
when everyone else has the same idea, its probably
a good idea to get an even bigger jump on fellow em-
ployment-hopefuls. That being said, the best time to
start really depends on what type of job youre look-
ing for.
At the bottom of the barrel, there are service jobs.
These jobs have nothing to do with your feld of inter-
est, and chances are they are going to pay minimum
wage. These are the jobs you work when all youre re-
ally interested in is padding your bank account.
There are other jobs out there that will pay better,
and probably wont pit you against throngs of angry
customers day after day. Looking up online job post-
ings can score you an interview for a job you may not
have otherwise been able to fnd. There are also ser-
vices at Western that can help you with your resume,
and may, if youre extremely lucky, fnd you some
jobs youre interested in.
At the other end of the spectrum, you can look for
a job related to your degree. These jobs are going to
be diffcult to come by and may not pay much, if they
even pay at all. But the experience from these jobs,
and any money they can offer, can be invaluable later
in life.
The work world is a vicious cycle. To get a job, you
need experience, and to get experience, you need a
job. Unfortunately, it seems as though if youre not
born with a job, youre screwed. Getting your foot
in the door may be the most diffcult aspect of work
youll encounter, so you need to be on your toes.
Keep in mind that the best way to get a job is to
know a person that has a job to give you. Youll need
to get creative, and fnd jobs in places that other peo-
ple may not think of. Think of every new encounter
as a potential job ticket, and remember that even if
they dont really know you, they still may be able to
help you.

job hunt
Letter to the Editor

I think it is a proven fact that once a per-
son becomes a university student, their
sleep schedule shifts two or three hours
later into the day. Gone are the days of
exuberated youth when I would drag
myself out of bed at 6:30 a.m. fve days
a week. Now, Im lucky if I drag my fa-
tigued corpse out of bed by 11 a.m.
Despite my inability to wake up in
the morning, it does not affect me in
terms of making it to class on time, but
I have come to learn that my time of ac-
tion is different from that of the world
around me. This is best exhibited by my
ongoing quest to get a haircut. After a
day of class combined with working
for the Gazette, it is rarely possible for
me to get to my hairdresser before their
closing time of 6 p.m..
Our campus is a world full of 24-
hour Subwaysthank goodnessand
late night snack bars in residence. This
sheltered life leaves us unprepared
for endeavours such as shopping and
haircuts. Once we pry ourselves out
of this paradise at the end of our late
night classes, we realize that the world
is full of closed banks and missed
opportunities.
The obvious argument to this is to
complete errands over the weekend,
and Im assuming everyone has a boat-
load of Friday class like myself, mean-
ing the weekend only consists of two
days. However, the problem with this
solution is the relentless pressure from
our peerssome might call it peer
pressureto party hard and live short.
Although parties are fun, they wear
down the body and mind, and cre-
ate a situation where a student spends
the frst half of their weekend fuctuat-
ing between stagnation and insanity.
All this comes to an end come Sunday,
where instead of doing our errands, we
sleep in until 2 p.m. and spend the rest
of our day doing the massive amount of
homework we put off all week.
Realistically, the best solution to all
these problems would be to suck it up
and wake up in time to complete your
daily errands, but this usually requires a
certain amount of foresight in regards to
the funnel full of jungle juice that some-
one hands you from across the room,
and its no question that the human
brain thinks in the short term, leaving a
half-paralyzed ghost of your former self
to complete your daily needs.
Even in terms of the options that are
available to you in the middle of the
night, there is still a smaller beneft than
there would be during the day. I doubt
very many people enjoy the realization
that they have to take a cab home from
their friends house because their bus
pass doesnt work after the buses have
stopped running for the day. Watching
the cost of your ride home go up in real
time tends to leave a sickening feeling
in the pit of your stomach.
In a city flled to the brim with stu-
dents, establishments such as the 24-
hour Subway have shown that it pays to
stay open into the middle of the night.
Living in the student-infested area near
Richmond Row, I wonder why there
arent more amenities available to me
in the dead of the night other than fatty
foods and bars full of drunk, testoster-
one-flled bros.
Maybe my imaginary utopia full of
burgeoning 24-hour businesses is ask-
ing a bit too much, but all I really want
is a chance to enjoy myself without hair
falling in my eyes.

tician being anti-science. A member of
the policy-making elite being blatantly
hostile toward any readily proven truth
is dangerous, and threatens healthy
democracy.
I applaud the original article (Lets
not shy away from science) for covering
the anti-science, anti-intellectual senti-
ment that is coming from the American
right. Watching a Republican debate
is like peering into an alternate uni-
verse. John Huntsman was in effect im-
mediately disqualifed from being the
nominee after admitting he believes
in evolution and human-caused global
warming.
Mr. Sandor urges us to stop acting
as if faith and science are incompat-
ibly binary. Faith is believing in some-
thing without any evidence. Science is
accepting only that which is proven. I
dont know how any two notions could
be less compatible.
Indeed, throughout its long and
bloody history, religion has been ex-
tremely hostile towards free inquiry.
The age of science is in its relative
infancy. Religious faith is a relic from a
time when people had no conception of
the Earth as a planet with the universe,
no understanding of gravity, or evolu-
tion. Faith was the only explanation a
person had for why they existed on their
piece of rock under the sky. In the age of
reason, religious faith has no place.

Jackets
Columbia sportswear has created a line of jackets
using their patented technology called omni heat, a
thermal technology that helps maintain warmth and
prevent heat loss. if that isnt warm enough for you,
these jackets have another unique featurewith
only a push of a button, you can turn on a battery-
powered heater that can last from four to six hours.
To shop omni heat jackets, visit columbia.com/omni-
heat.
mittens
Textaholics, rejoiceno longer will you have to choose
between texting and keeping warm. There is a new
product on the market called Twittens, which are
gloves that have a detachable thumb and forefnger
spot, allowing you to stay sociable. Twittens are also
great for photographers and people who love to read.
To shop for Twittens, go to twittens.ca.

making busing easier
London Apple lovers will be rejoic-
ing with the release of a new iPhone
application that will make navigat-
ing bus routes much easier.
The application, called LT-
Watch, allows users to follow real
time locations of buses along their
routes, much like the Live Arrival
Times on the London Transit Com-
missions website.
I created this app out of my
personal need when I frst came
to London, says Barum Rho, cre-
ator of the LTWatch app. I had to
frequently lookup the timetable
on the London Transit website,
but I did not always have access to
a computer and browsing on the
phone was too slow, as the Lon-
don Transit website is not mobile-
optimized.
The application provides an
advantage to iPhone users who
may fnd using the LTCs website
frustrating to access through their
phones. Android users have previ-
ously enjoyed access to a similar
application.
There are probably things that
I can improve, but the functional-
ity of the app is limited by the data
that I can get from LTC, notes Rho.
So far, the app has been useful for
me and I hope that it will help other
students and LTC riders.
LTWatch was recently released
to the iTunes app store shortly
before the winter break for free
download.

Although weve been lucky with warmer weather
this winter, the cold is on its way. For those who dont
like to embrace the snow and bone-chilling
wind, there are various ways
you can use new technol-
ogy in your wardrobe to
keep warm this season.
Boots
no more cold toes. wenger footwear has a created
their mens boar boot which takes on a similar technol-
ogy to the omni heat jackets. not only are the boots
lined with Thinsulate, they use an ultraCharge lithium

If you speak English, you lost a piece
of your mind yesterday. The English
language part of Wikipedia, the en-
cyclopedia website that has become
an extension of many peoples brains,
voluntarily went black to protest two
billsthe Stop Online Piracy Act and
the Personal Information Protection
Act.
These two pieces of legislature
are currently pending in the US Con-
gressSOPA in the House and PIPA
in the Senateand many people in-
terpret them as threats to the Internet
as we know it. And despite these bills
being American, their consequences
will shape online content outside of
US borders, including Canada.
These bills are ostensibly about
the enforcement of copyright on the
Internet, Samuel Trosow, both a fac-
ulty of law and a faculty of information
and media studies professor at West-
ern, says. Theyre designed to make it
easier for content owners in the US to
stop what they view as a problem with
online piracy.
But Trosow says the legislature,
particularly SOPA in its current form,
is dangerous.
The problem with the bill is the
way its written. It allows content own-
ers to go after websites that they think
have infringing material on it, he
says.
The Digital Millennium Copyright
Act, which has been enacted in the US
since 1998, currently has a provision
for notice and take-down of infringing
material. Trosow explains that SOPA
takes things much further, allowing
copyright holders to actually block a
website, search results for the website
and even payments to the website
all without judicial supervisionif a
content owner feels the website has
infringed on their copyright. He says
that SOPA being signed into law would
have signifcant consequences.
It would have an immediate, de-
rogatory effect. It would give too much
power to a small group of content
owners in the music and entertain-
ment industry. It would put Internet
service providers [] at a disadvan-
tage, and it would certainly put end
users at a disadvantage.
Trosow recommends an article ti-
tled Dont break the Internet, writ-
ten by Mark Lemley, David S. Levine
and David G. Post, three American
university professors, and published
in the Stanford Law Review. The arti-
cle criticizes not only the intention of
the bills, but the legal dubiousness of
legislature.
This not only violates basic prin-
ciples of due process by depriving
persons of property without a fair
hearing and a reasonable opportu-
nity to be heard, it also constitutes an
unconstitutional abridgement of the
freedom of speech protected by the
First Amendment, the authors state
in regards to the fact that the owners
of allegedly infringing websites would
not even be given a chance to defend
themselves under SOPA and PIPA.
This is why sites like Wikipedia
and Redditsites that see many mil-
lions of users per daydecided to ef-
fectively remove themselves from the
Internet for a day. These sites feel they
will only be victims if such legislation
is enacted, and have decided to use
their infuence to educate visitors, a
decision Trosow agrees with.
And despite the Obama admin-
istrations threat of vetoing the bills
in their current forms, Trosow warns
that this will remain a serious issue.
He thinks that these bills will likely be
altered and resubmitted for approval.
While today its a big story be-
cause of the blackout, this is a story
that should have a longer life. We have
to be following this and we have to be
ready to look at the amendments that
are put into place in the US congress,
and be ready to analyze them.

FutureFocus: an advertising & information feature presented by the usc advertising & marketing office
Perhaps nothing in the last
decade has more revolutionized
how people interact than the ad-
vent of social networking media.
Be it through Facebook or Twitter
or their respective counterparts,
nowadays more and more people
are using the Internet to interact
with friends, family and even
strangers.
As convenient as such means of
communication can be, they can
also be risky, particularly for job
seekers. In a June 2009 survey, on-
line employment resource Career-
Builder found that 45 percent of
employers reported using social
media for screening job applicants.
Those results came a year after a
similar CareerBuilder survey of
31,000 employers found that one-
third of applicants considered for
jobs were rejected because of in-
formation discovered via social
media.
While social networking can be
valuable when seeking employ-
ment, its best for users to carefully
consider just what theyre sharing
with the world, and what they
should probably be keeping to
themselves.
Some of the Dos
In many ways, social networking
sites can help job seekers as they
look for work.
DO BE ACTIVE. Social networking
sites like Facebook arent just for
individuals. In fact, member groups
and even university alumni groups
have their own Facebook pages.
These groups provide valuable
means for job seekers to be active,
be it with professional groups in
their field or among their fellow
alumni, which can make for a valu-
able networking opportunity.
Whats more, prospective employ-
ers who visit an applicants page
are likely to be encouraged by their
involvement in local professional
groups.
DO POST PERTINENT INFORMATION.
Job seekers can show their interest
in a desired field in other ways as
well. Post links to stories about rel-
evant industry topics, just be care-
ful to avoid comments that appear
too flippant or critical of the indus-
try or any industry professionals.
Posting links indicates to prospec-
tive employers that an applicant is
up-to-date on current issues facing
the industry.
DO BE CAREFUL. While job seek-
ers can use social networking sites
as a means to display their knowl-
edge of their desired industry, its
important to be careful about how
that knowledge is shared. When
posting messages, post rational,
carefully considered thoughts or
opinions. Avoid remarks that
might come off as overly critical,
instead choosing remarks that pro-
vide concise insight and indicate
an ability to provide opinion with-
out criticism.
Some of the Donts
Ignoring the donts of social net-
working could greatly reduce an
applicants ability to land a job.
DONT SWEAR LIKE A SAILOR. Many
people avoid swearing in public
and its a good rule of thumb to
consider all social networking sites,
be it Facebook, LinkedIn or Twit-
ter, a public place. Regardless of
where the foul language stems
from, its best to avoid it entirely on
social networking sites. Most peo-
ple would not swear in a job inter-
view, and many of todays job
interviews begin with prospective
employers researching an applicant
online.
DONT SHARE INAPPROPRIATE PHO-
TOS. Many a famous person has
been caught in scandals surround-
ing inappropriate photos posted
online. While its OK to horse
around with friends, its best to
avoid documenting such times on-
line for all the world, including po-
tential employers, to see.
DONT GET THINGS OFF YOUR
CHEST WITH REGARDS TO A FORMER
EMPLOYER. Disparaging remarks
about a former employer make for
a very visible red flag with prospec-
tive employers. Such remarks only
reflect poorly on the applicant and
almost certainly guarantee an indi-
viduals resume will find the scrap
heap and not the hiring managers
desk.
DONT GET TOO PERSONAL. Shar-
ing too much personal information
online is another way job seekers
can reduce their chances of finding
work. While some information,
like family photos, is acceptable,
getting overly personal could scare
away prospective employers.

Make a Career Fair
Work for You
Opinion often differs as to the benefits of attending a career fair.
For every one person who can tell a story of landing their dream
job thanks to a career fair, there seems to be dozens more stories
of how career fairs dont yield the desired results.
While theres no guarantee a career fair will end up with an em-
ployer-employee match made in heaven, there are steps job seek-
ers can take to make the most of a career fair.
GET A HEAD START. Thanks to the Internet, its now easier for job
seekers to make themselves known at career fairs. Pre-registering
for a career fair, as opposed to simply showing up on the day of,
often requires registrants to upload a resume. This gives prospec-
tive employers an opportunity to pre-screen potential applicants
and make a note of who they want to contact at a career fair.
BE PREPARED. A career fair should not be considered a simple
meet-and-greet. Job seekers should prepare for a career fair as if
it were a job interview. Everyone knows the value of making a
strong first impression, and job seekers can do just that by prepar-
ing to answer any questions prospective employers might ask.
While a career fair might seem less formal than a typical job in-
terview, it should not be treated as such.
BRING MORE THAN YOURSELF. Todays job market is incredibly
competitive, and standing out at a crowded career fair wont be
easy. That said, job seekers should bring a portfolio of their best
work. This doesnt have to be everything, but individuals should
choose a handful of work samples that illustrate their talents and
experience.
DRESS THE PART. Attire is also important when attending a ca-
reer fair. Just because a career fair is on a Wednesday afternoon
does not mean job seekers should dress like its a typical lazy
Wednesday afternoon around the house. Conservative business
attire should be worn, and remember its always preferable to
overdress than underdress.
FOLLOW-UP. Companies with a table or booth at a career fair are
going to receive an overwhelming amount of resumes, particu-
larly with such high unemployment rates. That said, its a good
idea for job seekers to do some follow-up with recruiters. Take
their business cards and follow-up with them after the event. Call
them that night and leave a voicemail thanking them for their time
and insight, or e-mail them a thoughtful letter expressing similar
sentiments of gratitude. Also, reiterate interest in the company
and any available positions discussed during the career fair. Before
hanging up the phone or sending the e-mail, be sure to promise a
follow-up phone call during business hours, and make sure that
phone call is made. CB10A984
While it can be fun to use social net-
working sites, its best for job seekers
to be careful as well.

The hidden job market eludes
many students and young profes-
sionals who are looking to enter
the workforce. Many jobs are
found by knowing the right people
and being in the right place at the
right time. Student-2-Business
(S2B) is a great opportunity for
students and new graduates to
break into the hidden job market
and find these opportunities. Over
the past four years, many students
who attended S2B have found co-
op opportunities, mentors, valu-
able introductions and ultimately
jobs.
Student-2-Business is a half-day
networking conference that cre-
ates an advantage for student be-
cause they can connect with
businesses to learn about employ-
ment and career opportunities.
Andrew McClenaghan, President
and Principle owner of Echidna
Solutions Corp., a web develop-
ment company, had this to say
about his experience at S2B: The
Student-2-Business event offers a
unique opportunity to make con-
nections with exceptionally tal-
ented and creative students.
McClenaghan recently hired a stu-
dent he met at the Student-2-
Business Conference.
Many companies look to hire
Western graduates. Info-Tech, one
of Londons leading research and
technology firms is an example of
a local growth-stage company
looking to connect with graduat-
ing talent. Ivey grad Joel McLean
founded Info-Tech right out of his
Masters degree and is actively
growing his business and provid-
ing recent graduates with relevant,
quality job experience.
Echidna Solutions Corp. and
Info Tech are just two examples
of the many companies looking
to connect with new graduates.
Over 300 business and community
delegates will attend the fifth an-
nual S2B Conference to meet with
students. S2B takes place Thurs-
day, January 26th 2012 at the Lon-
don Convention Centre. Over 600
students are expected to attend an
afternoon of workshops where
they will learn what London has to
offer and how they can succeed
professionally. Workshops include
Real Life Recruiting, Londons
Growth Sectors, Networking at a
Social Function and an Interna-
tional Student Workshop for Stu-
dents on Study Visas.
This years keynote Amy Eliza-
beth Casson, a certified image con-
sultant and personal brand
strategist, will provide both busi-
nesses and students with insight
on personal brand and reputation
building. Amy specializes in pol-
ishing the presence of profession-
als across North America and has
assisted thousands of corporate
clients including: Nestle Canada,
Johnson & Johnson, Deloitte Con-
sulting and TD Canada Trust. Amy
is currently as career image con-
sulting for Monster.ca, Canadas
leading job search portal and has
recently co-authored a book titled

It seems like the Canadian rap-
rock band from Toronto Down
With Webster cant get enough of
Western. Riding off the success of
their third studio album Time To
Win, Vol. 2, they return to our pur-
ple stomping grounds to perform
at the Wave tonight. As the group
prepares for the show, rap vocalist
Cameron Cam Hunter talks about
Down With Websters past year and
upcoming tour.
You performed at Western last
year for orientation week and now
youre back. How has your sound
changed since then? What new
things can the audience expect?
Weve got a completely new
album out that we dropped just a
couple of months ago. Its twice as
long as the old one and its got a
lot of new material. Were going to
be performing that in its entirety
as well as some of our old favou-
riteswe also beefed up our stage
show a bit in terms of how it looks.
At the core of it, its still the same
energy, the same kind of live show
that people expect out of us.
Last year you also won Pop Video
of the Year at the MuchMusic Video
Awards for Whoa Is Me. Did the
win add a lot of pressure?
I actually dont feel like its
added any pressure. We usually
just kind of do our own thing, like
were in our own world. Its best to
not let that kind of stuff affect you.
I think were always surprised that
we became a pop band or as popu-
lar as we are, so we just try to keep
the music in our own point of view
and not think about others. We al-
ways put pressure on ourselves to
write better songs and develop as
artists and as a band.
Youre doing the 2012 WIN tour
with Ubiquitous Synergy Seeker,
also from Toronto. How has your
collaboration with them been?
Theyre great guys who weve
known for a while now. We met
them at a festival about three years
ago and they were just super chill
guys, easy to get along with on a
tour. What they do is very compact
and there are only two of them so
its not like taking another band
with twelve guys on the road and
trying to set up and tear down
every night, so that works well.
They have a lot of energy too
those guys know how to go crazy,
so I think its a good ft for us and
made sense.
Speaking of collaborations,
in Time To Win,Vol. 2 you team up
with Far East Movement to pro-
duce a track. Are there any other
groups or performers youd like to
work with in the future?
We got a lot of our collaborations
off on this record. Far East Move-
ment are guys we already knew
and are super cool so we wanted
to work with them, and luckily that
came about very easily. Ive always
wanted to collaborate with 30H!3
because we toured with them and
they have a really cool sound that
I think would add a different kind
of element to our songs. One thing
we dont really do is make music
that sounds like its for a club, but
we listen to a lot of it, so if someone
did a spin on one of our songs that
would be awesome.
For your track Big Wheels, you
make a classic video game themed
video. What are some of your fa-
vourite video games?
That video was a long time
coming. We went through a phase
where we played so many old
school Nintendo games on the bus,
and all the games that were fea-
tured in the video were games we
had really been in love with since
we were kids. There was Mario
Kart, NBA Jam, Duck Hunt, Paper-
boyall those classic games.
As a group of six members, there
can be a lot of opinions. What are
some of the ways you guys make
decisions?
Arguing. Yelling loudly at each
other. Name calling. But seriously,
its like anything. You say your
piece and at this point everyone in
the group knows each other so well
that we all hear everybody out and
we come to a decision. As a group,
its very democratic in that sense.

Jack Chambers: Light, Spirit,
Time, Place and Life
Dennis Reid, Mark A. Cheetham,
Christopher Dewdney
Art Gallery of Ontario
Prominent and infuential Cana-
dian artist Jack Chambers fnally
receives the attention due to him
and his work in Light, Spirit, Time,
Place and Life. The book is edited
by Dennis Reid, a now-retired
editor-curator-writer and one of
the most respected Canadian art
scholars from the Art Gallery of
Ontario.
The compilation follows the
life of Chambers, who was born in
London, Ontario, in 1931. Using
his paintings as landmarks on the
journey of his life, the book incor-
porates essayists from all walks
of Canadian artcritics, poets,
painters, writers and scholarsto
help catalogue, illuminate and cel-
ebrate the works and infuences
that shaped and that were shaped
by this man. The highway portrait-
cover of the book is a ftting start-
ing point for the travels through
time, place and life that unfold
within its pages.
Beginning with abstract and
dreary realist paintings crafted
when he was merely 14-years-old,
the book jumps through epochs of
Chambers life, progressing from
his abstract phase to his realist
phase to his perpetualist phase,
to his venture into surrealism and
subsequent emergence into strik-
ing, elegant photorealism and
to his fnal descent into almost-
juvenile, dreamlike graphite and
coloured chalk on paper works.
Chambers was not only a
painter, heavily infuenced by
Spanish art during his stint in Spain,
but he was a photographer with
a sharp eye and a flmmaker with
keen sensibility. His art forms are
widely divergent and often seem
incongruous, but time, photog-
raphy, pigment and personal rev-
elation converge into a focused
technique. Pointillismvisual art
using tiny dots as its medium
is a thread that unites Chambers
works, from his vague pieces such
as Bertha from 1953 to his most
detailed, such as Diego Sleeping
No. 2 from 1971.
Despite his fnal mediocre Un-
titled series and underachiev-
ing Indian Drawings collection,
Chambers has left his mark on the
world. His skill in articulating peo-
ples faces is surpassed by his skill
in rendering them as intriguing
and mysterious, as in the blurry,
haunting portrait of John McIntyre
of 1948 and the faceless view of
Berthas back. His weak navigation
of abstract concepts as in 1961s
Slaughter of the Lamb, is over-
shadowed by his meticulous ob-
servation and craftsmanship in his
photorealist works such as Sun-
day Morning No. 2.
Chambers variety of media and
techniques is captured in this an-
thology, examined by the essayists,
and incorporated into a character-
ization of Chambers as more than
a painteras a human being, a fa-
ther and a friend.
Whatever artistic differences
and disputes may have existed and
may still exist, whatever criticisms
may be deployed against the work
of this penultimate Canadian art-
ist, one fact cannot be ignored
great artists give us new eyes.
Chambers unique and infuen-
tial perspective is, after some 40
years, still refreshing and interest-
ing. With an extensive chronology
and bibliography, this collection is
a brilliant celebration of Canadian
artistry. Were more books like this
published, Canadian art would
spring from anonymity into focus,
from obscurity to just recognition
and deserved celebration.

Mustangs remain undefeated at home in 5-2 win
unice shuts the door on lancers in 30 save performance
renee tamming

The Windsor Lancers attempted
to do what no team has been able
to do yet this seasondefeat the
Mustangs at Thompson Arena.
However, it was not meant to be
as the mens hockey team, deter-
mined to not have a repeat perfor-
mance of their last meeting with
Windsorwhere Western lost 4-3
in overtimerallied to beat the
Lancers by a fnal score of 5-2.
The Lancers started the game
on the wrong foot, with goalie
Parker Van Buskirk letting in four
goals before they even had a
chance to respond. Lancers coach
Kevin Hamlin was not happy with
his teams performance in the frst,
stating that they were lacking the
drive needed to halt the Mustangs
offence.
We competed for 40 minutes.
And you cant spot one of the best
teams in the country four goals
and expect to have a happy end-
ing. Its really that simple, he said
after the game.
Keaton Turkiewicz started the
scoring with a power-play goal
seven minutes into the game, with
Jason Furlong netting a shot only
13 seconds later. Western coach
Clarke Singer was proud of his
teams efforts.
I thought we had a great start
to the game, obviously getting up
4-0, and the guys put a focus on
the forecheck in the frst period
and they did a good job on that,
he said.
During the second, the Lanc-
ers switched Van Buskirk for Savelli
and things started to look sour
for the Mustangs. Windsors Steve
Ferry and Tom Craig each scored
on Western goalie Josh Unice. With
many more shots coming Unices
way, the defence needed to step
up their game in order to keep the
lead.
Consistency is our number
one thing. You cant play a good
period, bad period, good period.
When youre in the playoffs you
cant have a bad 10 minutes, and
tonight, especially in the second,
I thought they were all over us.
We have to improve our system,
Singer commented on the Mus-
tangs performance.
Early in the third, the Lanc-
ers had a chance to cut the Mus-
tangs lead in half when Evan Stib-
bard and D.J. Turner went 2-on-1
against Unice. But when Stibbard
lost his footing, Unice was able to
cover the puck, stopping the play
with Stibbard in the net instead.
The Mustangs were able to keep
their two-goal lead against the
Lancers until late in the third, when
Savelli was pulled in the fnal 30
seconds of the game. Zach Harn-
den found himself in the Lancers
end with the puck and easily tossed
it in the empty net for a 5-2 fnish.
The Mustangs alternate cap-
tain, Scott Aarssen, was pleased
with the way his team played, es-
pecially since he knew it was going
to be a tough game.
Windsor played like they al-
ways do. They played hard and
they never stopped working. Even
when theyre down four goals they
still kept coming. They hit hard,
they forechecked hard, and it was
a close game in the end. It was a
typical Windsor game, I think, he
said.
The game did not only have a
high score, but it had a high total of
penalties-in-minutes, with 17 pen-
alties between the two teams. But
neither team was truly able to capi-
talize on their chances, as only one
power-play goal was scored in the
entire game.
The Mustangs, now in second
place, will take to the skies for their
next two games against the third-
place Lakehead Thunderwolves,
playing them twice this weekend.
With only two points separating
the two teams, these games will be
a battle for second place.

lineup, the mustangs were able to pull away with a 5-2 victory. This win keeps the mustangs undefeated at home. next week they will head to lakehead to take on
the Thunderwolves.
Consistency is our
number one thing. you
cant play a good pe-
riod, bad period, good
period. when youre in
the playoffs you cant
have a bad ten min-
utes.

younger wrestlers lead charge at Brock open
along with four medals, valuable experience gained

Despite a shorthanded roster
participating in Saturdays Brock
Open, the tournament proved
successful for a young Mustangs
wrestling team. Featuring a roster
of inexperienced talent, the Mus-
tangs were able to bring home a
slew of medals along with a wealth
of practice.
Without standouts Steven Taka-
hashi, Ilya Abelev, Richard Balfour
and Brianne Barry, the Mustangs
were able to walk away from the
tournament with a sense of ac-
complishment. Leading the way
was Mustangs rookie Valerie Ouel-
lette, who took home the only gold
of the weekend.
As a member of the 44kg weight
class in national competition,
Ouellette is forced to compete in
the 48kg competition in Ontario
University Athletics due to the fact
that 48kg is the smallest division.
In total four Mustangs took
home medals and additionally
Brian Cowan, a member of the
London-Western Wrestling Club
and a Mustangs recruit, took home
gold in the 54kg division.
Along with the strong perfor-
mance of Ouellette, teammate Eric
Jacobson was able to walk away
with a silver medal in his weight
class.
Obviously winning gold is a
better feeling than placing second,
but taking home any medal is a
good feeling, Jacobson said.
As the season gets into the swing
of things, Jacobson believes he has
a shot to be a valuable member of
this Mustangs squad. With very lit-
tle practice under his belt thus far
in the new year, it should only be
a matter of time before the rust is
shed.
Last week was the frst week
back to steady practicing and this
was the frst tournament in 2012
so I was feeling a little unprepared
and out of shape from the holi-
days, Jacobson said. I didnt know
who would be there and what to
expect from the competition, but
the day turned out to be a fun day
of wrestling.
For most of the Mustangs, this
was a chance to get back into the
swing of competition. Among
those who medaled, Shawn Wheat-
ley was one of those that was satis-
fed by just getting into the swing
of things.
I had some good competition
in this tournament, and I had a few
really good matches. Overall, I was
happy with my performance, and
Ill use the experience to continue
improving, Wheatley said. It was
the frst of the new year, so it was
a bit of a challenge getting back to
shape after a long winter exam pe-
riod and holiday season. We prac-
ticed hard leading up to it though,
and it paid off for the most part.
Mustangs coach Ray Takahashi
was pleased with his teams effort
in the Brock Open, but due to the
nature of the tournament, he may
be looking into the future for a bet-
ter gauge on his team.
One of the main goals at Brock
was to get competitive matches
and we averaged three to four
matches per team member, which
was good. Several team members
need to gain more competitive ex-
perience, especially after the long
December break, Takahashi said.
Looking ahead, the Mustangs
will participate in the Guelph In-
vitational on January 21 as they
bring out their full arsenal of wres-
tlers. After fnishing second at last
years OUA championships, the
Mustangs have a strong team and
are undoubtedly looking for a title
at the conclusion of this season.
At this point, we have a solid
team and the focus is to fne-tune
our techniques and ftness over the
upcoming weeks. We have a few in-
juries which should heal, and if we
peak optimally, we should be very
competitive at the OUA Champi-
onships, February 11 at McMas-
ter, Takahashi said.

obviously winning gold
is a better feeling than
placing second, but
taking home any medal
is a good feeling.

Small in stature but not lacking
in heart, this weeks Purple Pipe
award will reside on the mantle of
freshman wrestler Valerie Ouel-
lette. As the only Mustang to top
the podium at the Brock Open,
Ouellette kicked off 2012 and her
Mustangs career in strong fashion.
It felt great to win the tourna-
ment. Since it was my frst univer-
sity tournament. I was very glad
that I was able to start on a positive
note, Ouellette said.
Competing in the 44kg division
on the national stage, Ouellette is
forced to compete in the 48kg divi-
sion in Ontario University Athletics
tournaments.
I was simply expecting to per-
form. I was not sure how hard the
competition was going to be so all I
wanted was to wrestle well and im-
prove on some areas that I needed
to work on, Ouellette said.
With a shorthanded roster going
into the Brock Open due to prepa-
ration for the upcoming Guelph
Invitational, coach Ray Takahashi
decided to send players he felt
needed practice most, and Ouel-
lette took advantage of the oppor-
tunity at hand.
Having fnished second place in
the OUA championships last year
and sixth in the Canadian Interuni-
versity Sport championships, the
Mustangs will welcome the strong
performances of Ouellette for the
upcoming season. Paired with vet-
eran star Brianne Barry, the Mus-
tangs will undoubtedly have a for-
midable duo for the coming years.
Excited for the rest of the sea-
son, Ouellette is happy with her
decision and is just enjoying being
a Mustang.
My frst year as a Mustang has
been a really good experience, as
an athlete, and also as a student.
The student-athlete experience
at Western is great and I am very
happy with my decision to come
here, Ouellette said.
It would be a mistake to believe
that Ouellettes potential is far off in
the future, because she is geared to
be a contributor from day one. As
the Mustangs prepare for the up-
coming Guelph Invitational, Ouel-
lette will certainly be leaned on to
contribute.
For the rest of the year I believe
that top three is achievable at the
OUA and CIS [championships],
both as team and individual,
Ouellette said.

Canadas ace in the hole rules the court
Kaitlyn mcGrath

Recently, in tennis, Canada is not
so much the underdog as it is the
weak, sickly looking player who al-
ways goes home before the game is
barely fve minutes old. Im speak-
ing metaphorically of course
everyone knows Canada doesnt
actually play tennis poorly. Its the
Canadian tennis players that do.
That is, until Milos Raonic
bounced onto the scene.
During the 2011 Australian
Open, Raonic surprised everyone
by advancing to the fourth round
before David Ferrer ousted him.
After that, he went on to win his
frst ATP singles title in San Jose,
before suffering a hip injury during
Wimbledon that sidelined him for
six months. But before the year was
done, the Canadian was named
the ATP newcomer of the year
an honour once given to current
world number two Rafael Nadal,
and former world number one
John McEnroe. Not a bad class to
join, if you ask me.
And Raonic hasnt slowed down,
starting the year off by winning his
second title at the Chennai Open
a few weeks ago. Currently ranked
25th in the world, the highest ever
for a Canadian male singles player,
Raonic made quick work of Filippo
Volandri, his frst round opponent
at this years Aussie Open, easily
winning the match in straight sets.
Even more impressive is that
Raonic racked up 13 aces in the
winning effort, and since the sea-
son began, his service game has yet
to be broken. Pretty good for a guy
from Thornhill, eh?
At the age of 21, and with only
one full season in the ATP, its al-
ready clear Raonic might become
Canadas best tennis singles player
ever, if he isnt already. And before
all you Daniel Nestor fans send me
angry letters, please notice I said
singles playerwith titles from
all four majors and an Olympic
gold medal, Nestor already has a
strangle hold on Canadas top dou-
bles player.
But back to Raonic. Right now
the entire countryor at least
those who follow tennisis rid-
ing the wave of his recent success,
desperately hoping that Raonic is
Canadas tennis savour. After all, if
a little country like Serbia can pro-
duce Novak Djokovic then Canada
should be able churn out at least
one tennis player star among all
the hockey stars and curlers.
Theres not much debate about
whether Raonic is Canadas best,
but the bigger question is, can he
compete with the best on tour?
In recent years the mens side of
the draw has arguably seen some
of the best players in history. And
with the big fourFederer, Nadal,
Djokovic and Murraystill domi-
nating the game, Raonic has a
steep hill to climb to get to the top.
But Raonic has an ace up his
sleeve, and its exactly thathis
ace. Prior to the opening day of the
Australian Open, Brad Gilbert, for-
mer tennis coach of Andre Agassi
and Andy Roddick, said he thought
Raonic would be the frst male
player to serve over 160 miles per
hour.
The serve in tennis is a players
greatest weapona big serve can
dictate an entire match. Of course,
every player needs a well-rounded
game, and Raonic admits that hes
worked on his return game in the
off-season, but a dangerous serve
always comes in handy, especially
when one gets deeper into the
tournament.
During last years Aussie Open
Raonic became a household name
for Canadians. This year, lets hope
he can become a household name
around the world.
