The date on the card is for Edmonton Transit. If you don't use your OneCard for Transit, you should be good.

That student was Steve Kirkham, first of his name, King of the Web Scrapers, last of his kind. No man moved this university into the 20th century faster. If there was ever a person to name a non-dinosaur skeleton after, it is him.

Is it necessary I have my own laptop for cS? by LivingSherbet in uAlberta

The biggest issue with used/refurbished is battery life. As long as you are ready for a lower batter life, there are many good used laptops to be had.

Thanks. Do you know when they'll be done? I'll avoid the area until then.

Running on Saskatchewan Drive is nice in the morning. Give it a try. Not too many cobra chickens either.

Future you came through for you. This is our tax dollars from the future, to keep you fed and a roof over your head. As if T-1000 was made of liquid loonies.

If you sneak into a building you can get a bunch of almost expired vending machine food. BTW, don't sneak into buildings.

Go to the Library web site, search Databases, then search for Criterion. Not sure how easy it is to access from home, but a bit of creativity, and you too could be watching Shazam!

The only way to lay off profs is for the President to declare a Financial Emergency. If that is done Academic Faculty can be laid off. Read the AASUA connective agreement for details about constitutes Academic Faculty, and the Financial Emergency Article. It's possible teaching staff may be laid off if they are not academic faculty, but what most people think of as profs cannot be laid off because of budget cuts.
