Two of the HSF members elected last April were disqualified at an appeal hearing two weeks later and replaced by the runners-up. According to HSF officials, Ravjot Chhatwal and Puneet Matharoo, elected as President and Vice-President of Campus Life North, were disqualified after receiving three strikes each under HSF Policy 5. Each were replaced with election runners-up Cynthia Malagerio, who will be president, and Jenny Gibson, who will fill the vice-president role. The strikes stemmed from an e- mail that was sent as part of their campaign. The first strike was for not get- ting the e-mail message approved by the Chief Returning Officer before being sent out, which is outlined in the election rules. The second strike came because the e-mail was sent out via the International Students listserve, an e-mail discussion group in which e-mails are sent to every e-mail address on the list. According to

Malagerio, it had been previously discus.sed in a candidates meeting that administrative listserves were not allowed, as not all candidates had access to them. The only e- mail lists that were allowed were those compiled by the candidates. The third strike was for the unfair advantage of using the list- serve by Chhatwal and Matharoo. The e-mails were first brought to HSF's attention when students who received the message com- plained. Chhatwal also received an addi- tional strike for being within visi- ble range of a voting station and speaking to students immediately prior to voting. The decision was made public in HSF's Newswire, on April 26. While some students complained they were not informed of the changes, HSF defended their actions, saying they did what they could to inform the voting public. "It's not a matter of notice," Malagerio said, referring to the lack of notice to students. "It was just how the timeline played out. It was available online long before it was printed. It was up the next day." Chhatwal and Matharoo were both unreachable for comment as of the time this article printed. In other HSF news, a posting has been put on workopolis.ca for the position of executive director & business manager. The job entails overseeing legal issues within HSF and managing full time staff and financial planning. According to HSF officials, Michael Parent, who held the posi- tion for the last four years, gave his letter of resignation in August. "He is a talented, brilliant man, and I think he moved on to better opportunities," Malagerio said. In his absence, officials said, the rest of the HSF staff has pulled together to fill the void.

"Education is the ability to listen to almost anything without losing your temper or your self-confidence" - Robert Frost {Readers Digest - April 1960). Campuses, names and presidents

Many students returned to school this semester with the scars of last year's teacher strike in mind. New students may not know what occured. At the end of the spring semester last year, college teachers and support staff walked out of classes for 18 days. Humber's 17,000 full-time students were left struggling to close their school year without suffering the fall-out of missed classes. And then came a summer marked by uncertainty as students wondered what September would bring. Summer jobs, internships or adventure could not hide the end of a two-year tuition freeze. The fees for most programs went up by $100 to $200. Students in post-graduate programs were hit the hardest with increases close to $300.

Due to the tuition hikes, Humber collected $3 1 ,500 more in fees than it had in 2005. These fees are used to operate the college, pay teacher salaries, upgrade facilities and run HSF. Humber operates two campuses, Lakeshore and the North Campus and will soon have a cam- pus in Orangcville. The money is well needed. Over the summer, at the North Campus, the S and R residence buildings were renovated, a state r/ie fees for most of the art newsroom was built for the School of programs went up by Media Studies in the I. building and a lab for the new spa program was constructed in the H build- $100 to $200.

A sound room is being built at close to Lakeshore and the Orangeville campus will be $300. operational by 2008. The school now reaches overseas offering stu- dents in Singapore the opportunity to gain a Humber education. The most notable change over the summer was Robert (Squee) Gordon announcing his retirement as president of the college at the end of this school year. Gordon's 25-year tenure, the longest for a college president in Canada, has contributed to the expansion of Humber Institute of Technology and Advanced Learning (ITAL). Next year, as the school marks its 40th anniversary, a new president will preside over these hallowed halls.

Tuition goes up, new programs start and buildings are renovated, but this is the price it takes to lead the way into the future.

Humber received the designation of an ITAL in 2002 when it approached the Ministry of Training (Colleges and Universities for permissioti to change its name from a college to a poly- technic. The ministry granted the college with the name ITAL, but not the name it had requested. Recently Humber began an advertising campaign "Defining Polytechnic

Education," even though it can not call itself a polytechnic institution.

Change is inevitable, but one thing will always stand true - Humber will grow and mature much like the students it educates and Humber Et Cetera will continue to grow and inform the student body as news unfolds. The original intent for Et Ceteni's first issue was to focus on the fifth year since the events that took place Sept. 1 1, 2001, but after what occured at Dawson College in Montreal, Et Cetera made a news decision. The events at Dawson College on Sept. 13 were shocking. It is hard to conceive that anyone could or would enter a learning institution with a weapon and target students. But it has and does happen.

It's terrible when a life is lost due to violence.

A newspaper has a duty to inform the public, but it relies upon its readers to keep it informed about what is Important to them.

Underoath: Define the Great Line

Carlos Dorantes Entebtainmeni Reporter

After two years of extensive tour- ing in support of their breakout release. They're Only dashing Safety, Underoath are haci< with Define The Great Line, a heavier more sophisticated recording. The Jesus loving (but don't call them a Christian band!), scrcamo six piece from Tampa, Florida set the tone for the record with the heavy opening track In Regards To Myself and don't come up for air for the duration of the record. The only noticeable break in the chaos

is the electronic spoken word piece, Salmarnir. Putting their Christian hearts on their sleeves, the track includes the reading of the lines of Psalm 50:1-6 in Russian over atmospheric key- boards. As always, the vocal duties are split between screamer Spencer Chamberlain and singer Adam Gillespie. The flawless transitions between melody and madness show the growth the band has gone through since their debut.

Moving Tor the Sake of Motion is the album's standout track, start- ing out innocently enough, with a safe pop riff comparable to any

run of the mill emo band, but is taken over by Chamberlain's vicious growl and the driving riffs of guitarists Tim McTaguc and lames Smith. Producers Matt Coldman and Adam Ilutkiwic/., guitarist for Killswitch lingagc, have no doubt helped redefine the band's sound, (ione, for the most part, are the whiney vocals and pop-inspired riffs. In their place are throat-tear- ing screams and raging guitars, culminating in a stronger, more mature sophomore effort. With the release of Define the Cireat Line, Underoath will likely gain new fans tired of the stale clones currently dominating the emo/screamo genre and give old fans a more sophisticated harder album.

"There is the Humber River, nice meadows and a lot of wildlife." She said that hikers may see a number of animals including coy- otes, foxes, owls, beavers, muskrats, turtles and great blue herons. The trails have been linked through a program called Discovery Walks, which is a series of self guided walks for students. There are a number of informa- "
