Event Recap: Sisters in Spirit Vigil
October 4, 2010
Tonight was the fifth annual Sisters in Spirit vigil. The vigil, which took place in over 70 cities across Canada, attracted crowds of Ryerson students and community members alike to commemorate the lives of missing and murdered Aboriginal women and girls. The Eyeopener was present at the Allan Gardens vigil. We weren't able to capture any of the tragic songs, passionate speeches or personal poems, but we were able to captures images from the solemn night.

Check out this video of “The Swan’s Lake”, a sculpture and large scale motor-driven light installation from Ryerson’s School of Interior Design and Theatre School.

Recap: IMA Karaoke Pub Night
October 3, 2010
Film, photography and new media students filled the Ram in the Rye last Friday for the the Image Arts Course Union's (IMA) first karaoke pub night. For those of you who missed it, here are some photos to make you regret staying home to watch The Office re-runs. If these show the IMA's first pub night, I can only imagine how their future ones will turn out.
I miss you like crazy

Relationships are tough at the best of times. When you and your significant other are attending faraway schools, things are even tougher.
A Wardrobe for all seasons
September 27, 2010
It’s that fickle time of year again, when we desperately try to transition our wardrobes from summer to fall and, let’s face it, the calendar month and the weather do not coordinate. Yes, we’ve been though this before, yet we still find ourselves jumping prematurely into our heavy fall wardrobe and sweating all day, or freezing whilst trying to keep summer alive. Here are a few simple tips to make this year’s transition into fall as easy, comfortable and stylish as possible without the midday wardrobe changes.
Be a jerk to fight off sickness
September 24, 2010
It all starts with one person.
Someone shows up in your classroom or your office (or your newsroom) with a mild case of the sniffles. You and your peers offer some sympathy, but barely take notice. But soon his or her sniffles turn into a full blown cold, complete with runny nose and impromptu sneezes. Before you know it, everyone else is sick to. I’ve seen this happen too many times to count, but this year, I won’t let myself get caught in this cycle, and neither should you. Here are a few rude tips that will help you ward of cold and flu for as long as possible.

Event Recap: IMA Frosh Exhibition
September 20, 2010
The IMA’s first ever orientation event, held at the newly renamed IMA Gallery, was exactly what you’d expect. There were boys in bowties, girls with glasses, and some sort of performance art piece that involved someone yelling “I CAN’T SEE ANYTHING!”
Video: Move snitch! Eye vs Rye
September 20, 2010
If you’ve read any of the three campus newspapers, you already know that Ryerson has a Quidditch team. But the Eyeopener, both amazed and bemused by this story, decided to go one step further and challenge the team to a match of epic proportions. It would be a classic case of the amateurs versus the veterans. It would also be a way to get us out of the office for something other than free food and parties.
VIDEO: Pop it lock it

The Urban Hip-Hop Union at Ryerson strives to prove that hip-hop not only a lifestyle, but a culture. They definitely made a believer out of first-year journalism student Christina Dun, who let the Eyeopener get a sneak peak into the world of UHHU by allowing us to document her audition for UHHU's very selective dance team. If selected, Christina would go on to compete at the Ontario University Competition for Hip-Hop with the rest of the team.
