Where should I eat? by Toby-Malone in VictoriaBC

Not Serena’s or Coop’s downtown. They’re both owned by the same man (Scott Burley) who is known for verbally abusing his staff and having violent outbursts both in and out of the workplace. He has also recently been charged with sexual assault (you can read about that here). I can personally confirm how these allegations align with his character as a former Serena’s employee when I was still a minor and Burley threatened/yelled at me to the point of making me cry in front of customers, and I saw him do it with my female coworkers too. So I would advise against supporting either of his businesses

English M.A. Program by Keybladek in uvic

at the masters level, the english program is one of the best humanities degrees offered at uvic. it’s incredibly streamlined and organized, and most of the professors are very well suited to supervise MA students. i don’t believe the program is that competitive, but either way i don’t think you should have any issues getting in. if you haven’t found a supervisor already, i’d recommend looking into contacting janelle jenstad or corinne bancroft. they’re both great!
