Go big before you go home
September 30, 2009
Go big. If there was one thing I learned on Saturday, it was to always go big. With a mickey of Crown Royal swirling through my head and over $200 in chips in my hand, my night at Niagara's Fallsview Casino had only begun.
staking your claim

The next few weeks is the best time to volunteer and get involved with our newspaper. We could always use more writers, photographers and copy editors. We don't care what year or program you're in either — everyone is welcome.
Surrendering the keys to the throne
August 26, 2009
AMIT SHILTON You may not know it, but Ryerson has its very own palace on campus. It’s not the biggest palace and surely not the most luxurious. It doesn’t house any historical artifacts or even a king and queen. In fact, you won’t hear about it anywhere else other than this issue. Because it’s not […]
CAN YOU READ THIS?
April 8, 2009
Carla Wintersgill Editor-in-Chief As someone who makes a living reading and writing, I pay close attention to how many people can actually read what I’m writing. In Canada, we’re proud of the accessibility we provide to education but our literacy rates tell another story. According to a 2005 StatsCan report, four in 10 Canadian adults […]
NICKELLING AND DIMING US TO DEBT
April 1, 2009
Carla Wintersgill Editor-in-Chief Whenever journalists start messing around with numbers, things start to get scary. After all, we were those kids in high school who flunked out of math class with the, “When will I ever need to use this again?” attitude. I would like to state for the record that I didn’t fail math. […]
Do it for the kids
March 18, 2009
Amit Shilton News Editor You might have noticed our campus has become a little busier over the last few days. High school students on their March break have been visiting our campus, checking us out. I’m sure most are impressed with our practical programs, tiny class sizes and location in the downtown core. But I’d […]
It’s not too late to join the cult
March 11, 2009
Carla Wintersgill Editor-in-Chief I just finished updating the excel spreadsheet that I use to keep track of all our volunteers and their amount of contributions. Normally, this isn’t a very exciting or noteworthy task. But tonight was different. Tonight, The Eyeopener hit the 150 mark. That’s 150 students who have volunteered their writing, photography and […]
Access complaints Double
March 4, 2009
By Joshua Dvorkin I have a physical disability. I do not let it define me, but it often makes me stand out from others. On Feb. 24, my broadcast journalism class went to television studio C. We all took turns on camera and read from the teleprompter. I was the first one to volunteer to […]
I’m no shrill prude, but…
March 4, 2009
Carla Wintersgill Editor-in-Chief Our Love and Sex edition is by far our most popular issue of the year, with a 90 per cent pick-up rate. But the reaction to a picture that we published in our Feb. 11 Love and Sex issue deserves to be acknowledged in this space. For those who missed it, the […]
FROM CHAOS COMES GREATNESS
February 25, 2009
Carla Wintersgill Editor-in-Chief In case you haven’t been following the news, let me break it down for you: the global economy is in the shitter. If you graduate this year, have fun trying to find a job. And it’s not going to get better anytime soon. Despite the gloomy forecast, there is a feeling of […]
EVEN BETTER THAN THE REAL THING
February 11, 2009
Carla Wintersgill Editor-in-Chief This time each year, the regular Eyeopener gets put on the shelf and is taken over by our annual Love and Sex issue. The responsibility of this massive undertaking falls in the lap of the second- term features editor, and as someone who has been there before, I can attest to the […]
