The Dinos not only handed the Dogs their first loss at Rutherford Rink this season with a 3-2 overtime win Friday, Feb. 3, but also held the Huskies scoreless in a 3-0 victory the following night.

Art Unsworth visited 11 grocery stores before the University of Saskatchewan Huskies’ basketball games on Jan. 28. He was searching for white cheddar popcorn flavouring. The specific flavouring combined with a few perfected topping techniques — grape seed oil — are part of Unsworth’s fight to bring popcorn back into the University of Saskatchewan’s Physical Activity Complex.
Of course, handing out popcorn isn’t the only reason why the Dogs alumnus — he played for the university in 1972-73 — and reigning Huskies fan of the year has attended nearly every Huskies basketball game for the last seven years. His youngest son, Chris, is a fifth-year forward with the Dogs and his eldest, Clint, graduated from the team two years ago.

The word “sustainable” is seemingly everywhere. It gets a lot of use by corporations to make their products seem more Earth-friendly than they really are, leaving consumers with a somewhat fuzzy idea of what the word means; is it really better for the environment or simply an attempt to jump on the green bandwagon?
For the University of Saskatchewan’s Office of Sustainability, the former seems to be the case. The U of S has been increasing commitments to making the campus more environmentally friendly, and the Office of Sustainability plays a large role in that.

Get all of those Harry Potter jokes out of your system right now becausee whether or not you associate Daniel Radcliffe with the teenage wizard does not matter with regards to his newest film. The Woman in Black will probably scare those fond memories of Hogwarts right out of all you Muggles.

We are told from a young age that dogs are “man’s best friend.” This is hardly true. A real best friend challenges your decisions and criticizes you when you’re being an idiot. But dogs act more like “man’s desperate sidekick” — they are the Milhouse to your Bart.
Dogs seem to beg their owners, “Do you have a best friend yet? ’Cause I’ve been looking for someone to boss me around.” Winston Churchill was right when he said that dogs look up to us while cats look down on us. So people who want to be worshipped get a dog. People who want to grow and learn to deal with a sovereign creature will get a cat.
