The Tribune Tribunal finds this drink enticing in colour and bewitching in taste. The lychee liqueur is somewhat overpowering, but delicious – the entire drink tastes lycheerific. While we eschewed the organic aspects of the beverage for preparation, we found the taste was not diminished. We give this delightful beverage a four and six twenty-fifths […]
The Tribune Tribunal finds this delightful. It’s like an alcoholic Shirley Temple. After a year doing SUB negotiations, our dear Ekaterina might resemble an alcoholic Shirley Temple as well – but she could always become the Ambassador to Czechoslovakia. We give this a three and seven ninths stars out of five.
I do not actually […]
Friday, December 11, 2009 Or, at least a very important part of it. While his partner in villainy is working hard to piss off the undergrad societies, Timkachu has turned his sights on (or, I suppose in this case, away from) the Grads.
It is the job of the VP External to maintain relationships with other student organizations, and specific […]
Thursday, December 10, 2009 Some Verse on the Topic of my Prospective Resignation
On Monday night, morose, I cried,
For a Society robbed of its pride,
No legal process was to bring,
Relief from our self claimed king
I thought we had no right to claim
A mandate after this con game
So as I drowned my tears in wine
I thought to myself “I must resign”
But […]
Some advice to the next VP External Affairs. As a student society, we are pretty unique in that we elect the expert, rather than hire them, but they still have to do all of the things that are in this video. Noticeably absent from the video? Filing complaints to the United Nations. Actually, anything to […]
The undergraduate society councils of Arts, Science and Engineering all passed resolutions supporting the actions of council. I assume, for Commerce, that it’s just kind of a given. Here they are:
Arts Undergraduate Society
WHEREAS Alma Mater Society (AMS) President Blake Frederick and Vice President External Timothy Chu recently filed a complaint with the United Nations […]
Wednesday, December 2, 2009 11:12 – Geoff Costeloe reading a statement to start off the discussion topic. Will post when I can get the text.
11:11 – Speaker Dave: And it hits the blogosphere in 5, 4, 3, 2…
The Alma Mater Society of UBC Vancouver (AMS), UBC’s student union, would like to inform the public that AMS Council unanimously passed […]
Tuesday, December 1, 2009 “Let’s Impeach The President”
Let’s impeach the President for lying
And crying to the UN with his friends
Abusing all the power that we gave him
And using the AMS for his own ends
Who thought we should work with Tristan Markle?
Those Alpaca shirts leave a lot to be desired
Cronyism so blatant it’s disgusting
Frederick and Chu, they must be fired
Let’s […]
Saturday, November 28, 2009 A disturbing trend I have seen recently in emails and comments is the insinuation that staff are somehow responsible for the current debacle. They are not, and I wholeheartedly condemn any attack on any AMS Staff person whose name has been unfairly impugned in this process. They are responsible to the elected executive and Council, […]
Saturday, November 28, 2009 There has been, over the past two days, a loud and almost violent reaction to the filing of a complaint to the UN without first seeking the approval of Council. I am somewhat shocked at the response. On any other issue at the AMS, I have gotten maybe one or two emails expressing an opinion. […]
