Movember

  • By November 14, 2013

    Students at the University of Saskatchewan are coming together to change the face of men’s health. Throughout November, male students will be growing moustaches for the annual Movember campaign.

  • From pink ribbons to moustaches, using symbols to sell cancer

    By November 14, 2012

    It’s the most wonderful time of year. And no, it’s not Christmas. It’s Movember! On the 1st of November, messages all over the internet, including from peers, encouraged men to shave one last time before growing out their moustaches with the intent of raising funds and awareness for prostate cancer.

  • Movember moustaches back in force for annual prostate cancer fundraiser

    By November 10, 2011

    Once again, Movember has brought out the many moustaches on campus.

    For those who are not aware, the purpose of “Movember” — also known as No-Shave November — is to raise awareness for prostate cancer and raise funds for further research into the disease.

  • Activism means more than broadcasting your bra colour

    At this point, most female Facebook users have gotten a message from a fellow woman urging her friends to “keep men guessing” and to help spread breast cancer awareness through cutesy games involving status mash-ups of their birthdays, where they put their purse and the colour of their bra.

    But one cannot spread awareness through a message that is intentionally cryptic. These silly games just prove that few people understand what awareness actually means.

  • Good riddance, Movember

    I realize Movember exists to raise awareness for Prostate Cancer ”” and this is fantastic. However, I sincerely hope most men are going to be stripping themselves of their beloved lip sweaters the second December hits.
