The university teacher-student dynamic can be a strange one: on one hand, students are students, and should reasonably be expected to act accordingly, deferring to professors as superiors and as more knowledgeable.
On the other hand, students know they pay a good chunk of their professors’ salary, and this can sometimes lead to students feeling as though they deserve more equal footing with their instructors.

Revolution is upon us, brothers and sisters! Across the globe, hordes of young people are taking to streets, crying for revolution, heckling riot police, smashing a window or two. To some spectators, these demonstrators are reckless anarchists. But the millions of people who have joined revolutions this year aren’t “rioting for the sake of rioting.” That’s more of a drunken hockey fan thing.

Skateboarding’s popularity continues to climb, and what was once derided as a waste of time is moving ever closer to becoming a respected sport, earning its spot on sports channels. This is thanks in part to a concerted effort to make skateboarding truly mainstream, spearheaded by Rob Dyrdek, a skateboarder himself. Dyrdek is also an entrepreneur and reality TV star.

This season’s fall comedy line-up is heavy on female talent.
For fans of (500) Days of Summer, like myself, Zooey Deschanel’s character Jess in New Girl isn’t unlike every other character she has ever played. On the other hand, with a mix of sardonic wit, attitude and pointed social commentary, Kat Dennings in 2 Broke Girls makes the audience laugh and sympathize with her.

Just days after Mahmoud Abbas formally launched Palestine’s bid for UN-sanctioned statehood, Saskatoon residents were given the opportunity to hear a speaker well-versed in the complexities of the ongoing conflict between Israel and Palestine.
Amira Hass is a journalist and an Israeli Jew whose mother was imprisoned in the Bergen-Belsen concentration camp during the Holocaust. Hass has lived in Palestine since 1993, first in Gaza and then, since 1997, in the West Bank. For 20 years, Hass has reported on the daily conditions of Palestinians in the Israeli newspaper Haaretz.

Clap Your Hands Say Yeah ask a lot of their listeners. If the band wants the sort of reaction their name demands, the onus is on them to give the audience a reason to break out and shout. And of their past two releases, only one has yielded such a result.
After a four-year hiatus, Clap Your Hands Say Yeah have returned with a new release, Hysterical.
