In fact, quite the opposite \u00E2\u0080\u0094 it's comforting.\nSteven Taubeneck is a\njoyful pessimist\nJenny Tan\nContributor\nSteven Taubeneck picked up his\nfirst copy of Nietzsche when he\nwas 12 years old.\nEnthralled by the text, he\ngave his 15-year-old girlfriend a\ncopy. The relationship, as he put\nit, quickly ended. But philosophy stuck with him.\nAt UBC, Taubeneck teaches\nexistentialism in the department\nof philosophy. Difficult to define,\nexistentialism is a branch of\nphilosophy that focuses on the\nindividual finding meaning in a\nmeaningless world. According\nto Taubeneck, being happy is\nnot the goal of life. Searching\nfor so-called \"happiness\" only\nleads to disappointment and \u00E2\u0080\u0094 no\ndisrespect to those with inspirational quotes on their wall \u00E2\u0080\u0094 we\nas a human race will never know\nthe meaning of life.\nIf existentialists don't\nadvocate searching for happiness, would Taubeneck call\nhimself happy?\n\"I'm a joyful pessimist,\" he\nchuckles. \"I'm pessimistic about\nconventional goals.\"\nTaubeneck's academic career\nis as unconventional as his\nphilosophical views. After pursuing multiple majors at multiple universities over the span\nof 11 years, he finally earned his\nbachelor of arts at the University of California, Santa Cruz\nin 1981. He chose to take only\ntwo or three courses a term and\nrefused to stay in courses or\nuniversities he didn't like.\nTaubeneck is concerned\nabout our \"culture of compulsory happiness.\" Any perspective or idea that questions the\n\"don't worry, be happy\" motto is\nconsidered suspicious in society.\n\"Happiness itself,\" he said, \"is a\nbig part ofthe problem.\"\nOur culture of\ncompulsory happiness\n... is a big part of the\nproblem.\nSteven Taubeneck\nPhilosophy professor\nTalking about how to live\nlife makes for a lively class. In\na regular lecture of 80 people,\nmore than a third will engage\nin discussion during class.\nReactions from students tend\nto be strong and disagreement\nis encouraged.\nThe class isn't just for Arts\nstudents, either. \"I get many\n[students] from the natural sciences,\" said Taubeneck. \"Right\nnow, I have a student from\ncomputer science and I think\nshe's happy to talk about some\nof these issues in a [more] open\nway than she would otherwise.\"\nSo given the gloomy semblance of existentialism,\nwhy is this particular type\nof philosophy appealing to\ncollege students?\n\"People [of college age]\noften find themselves torn,\"\nTaubeneck said. \"Torn into the\noutside world, into a future they\ncan barely see.... There's a great\ndeal of anxiety, of despair.\"\nTaubeneck knows a thing\nor two about using the teachings of dead philosophers to\nmake sense of life. As a child,\nhe started reading Nietzsche\nwhen he was trying to make\nsense of his family life. Through\nKant and Nietzsche, he realized\nthere were alternatives to the\nconventional views of family\nas presented on television and\nin church.\n\"Existentialism tells you that\nyou are not alone,\" he said. \"You\nnot only can cope with it, but\n[you] have to ... as part of being\nin this world.\" XI\nPHIL 38SA: \"Existentialism\" will\nbe offered again in the Fall term of\n2014. Taubeneck is also supervising\nseveral student-directed seminars\nthat he highly recommends.\nKnow someone at UBC who's done something interesting?

She then made it\nback to her residence and immediately called 911.\nThe man punched the woman in\nthe face, giving her a black eye.\nSgt. Drew Grainger ofthe UBC\nRCMP described the suspect as\nCaucasian, in his late 20s to early\n30s, approximately 6-foot-2 and of\nBUILDINGS \u00C2\u00BB\nSpace tentatively\napproved for Arts\nStudent Centre\nRJReid\nContributor\nThe grass area south of Brock Hall\nhas been tentatively approved as\nthe location for the proposed Arts\nStudent Centre.\nUBC's Property Planning\nAdvisory Committee has allotted\nthe Faculty of Arts space for a\n9,700-square-foot building next to\nBrock Hall, near the old SUB and\nacross from Irving K. Barber, that\nwould serve as a multipurpose community space for Arts students.\nliana Shecter, the Arts Student\nCentre community engagement\ncoordinator, is excited about the allotted space. \"It's going to be a good\ncore for student activity and student\nengagement,\" she said. \"There's\nIrving, there's Ladha, there's Brock\nHall which has the [Centre for\nStudent Involvement and Careers],\nthere's going to be the New SUB,\nthere's Hillel House \u00E2\u0080\u0094 everything\nis really catered toward students,\nespecially in that area, so I think it\nworks really well to have Arts represented there.\"\nMichael Kingsmill, AMS designer, said UBC was initially hesitant\nthin build. He had short cropped\nhair and was wearing blue jeans and\na dark hoodie, and was reported to\npossibly have an American accent.\nGrainger said that while the\ndescriptions ofthe assailants vary,\nsimilarities between the recent\nreported sexual assaults on campus\nare disturbing.\n\"What is most striking is the\nmethod ofthe attack,\" Grainger\nsaid. \"It's been a woman alone, she's\nbeen approached from behind and\ntried to drag into an area while the\nattacker tries to get his hands under\nthe woman's skirt. What's disturbing about this one is that the level of\nviolence has increased, where clothing has been ripped and the girl was\npunched in the face.\n\"We're very, very concerned\nabout this,\" Grainger said. \"This\nis our top priority, to try to resolve\nthese attacks,\"\nThe RCMP have no leads so far,\nbut according to a media release,\nthe they will partner with local law\nenforcement agencies to identify the\nsuspect or suspects responsible for\nthe assaults.\n\"We're activating a number of\nstrategies,\" Grainger said. \"Some of\nthem are very sensitive [in terms of]\nhow we are going to try to identify\nand apprehend this person.\"\nBarry Eccleton, director of Campus Security, said Campus Security,\nin conjunction with the RCMP, has\nincreased the number of people\ndoing patrols at night.\n\"We believe it will make a difference,\" Eccleton said.\nGrainger urged students to take\nextra precautions in light ofthe\nrecent assaults.\n\"Students and faculty and staff\nwho walk at those hours, they\nneed to always be vigilant of their\nsurroundings, and take every\nprecaution available to them to keep\nthemselves from becoming a victim,\nand ensure their own personal safety,\" said Grainger.\n\"The buddy system [is] probably\nthe best defense,\" he said. \"Take\na cab. If you can get a ride from\na friend, take that ride.\" He also\nrecommended that students take advantage of Safewalk, or ask campus\nsecurity to walk them home.\nCampus Security met with\nstudents in all seven residences to\nensure they are aware of tools such\nas emergency blue phones and AMS\nSafewalk that students can take\nadvantage of to ensure their safety.\n\"We are trying to look at ways\nof trying to make the campus offer\nmore services as well to keep people\nsafe,\" Eccleton said. \"It's really\nmaking people aware that these\nincidences have occurred and that\nwe all have a responsibility to look\nout for each other.\"\nThe blue phone on Main Mall and\nThunderbird Boulevard is currently\nout of order. Eccleton said it stopped\nworking sometime between Thursday and Sunday. He said fixing it\nwas a priority. However, he said\nthese phones are not often used.\n\"We have had the odd emergency\ncall but that's going back sometime\nnow. I can't recall the last time\nwe've had a true emergency call\ncome through [on the blue phones].\"\nAccording to Matthew Duguay,\nAMS executive coordinator of\nstudent services, Safewalk usage\nhas increased since the attacks\nbegan, though the official numbers\nwon't be known until the end of\nthe month. Safewalk is considering\nextending its hours of operation and\nincreasing the number of people\ndoing walks at night in light of\nthe situation.\nEccleton said that since the\nassaults began there has not been an\nincrease in the number of requests\nfor Campus Security escort.\nLaura Harrison, a first-year Arts\nstudent, heard about one ofthe\nsexual assaults on Saturday.\n\"It's just kind of creepy that we\nwalk around here every night,\" Harrison said. \"Like, I run track here,\nI come back when it's dark every\nsingle night alone.\"\nHarrison said she and her friends\nhave been taking more precautions\nat night since the attacks began.\nSome students living in the new\nPonderosa West residence are\nparticularly concerned. A key card\nsystem, where residents swipe their\ncards and enter a code to open the\ndoor ofthe building, is going to\nbe installed, but for now, there is\nno door separatingthe residence\nportion ofthe building from the\npublicly accessible area.\n\"I'm very scared to leave the\napartment after sundown because\nanyone can just go up the stairs,\nanyone can go up the elevator,\"\nsaid Dina Yacoub, a Ponderosa resident and second-year\npsychology student.\nAndrew Parr, managing director\nof Student Housing and Hospitality\nServices, said the door was supposed to be installed this week, but was\ndelayed by the vendor.\n\"I am hopeful that this week, before the end ofthe week, we'll have\nthat security in place,\" Parr said.\nIn the meantime, Ponderosa West\nis being monitored by the external\nsecurity company Polo Security.\nFour security guards arrive around\n3:30 p.m. when construction workers leave and are there until the\nworkers come back in the morning.\nAnisa Mottahed, manager of\nUBC's Sexual Assault Support Centre (SASC), said SASC dealt with 134\ncases of sexual assault duringthe\n2011-2012 school year, though not all\nof these occurred during that year.\nLess than 10 per cent of sexual\nassaults that occur are actually\nreported to the police, according\nto Mottahed. This includes sexual\nassaults committed by people\nknown to each other as well as by\nstrangers.\n\"From our knowledge, a lot\n[fewer sexual assaults] are actually\nbeing reported to the RCMP than\nare actually occurring on campus,\"\nsaid Mottahed.\nIn a few years' time, Arts will have their own building on par with Science's Abdul Ladha Science Student Centre\n=HOTO LU ZHANG3THE UBYSSEY\nabout giving away such prime space,\nbut was persuaded the location\nmatched the need. \"We made a case\nto them that it was a great site and\nthey were reasonably convinced\nthat there was some merit to it,\" he\nsaid, summarizing the lengthy site\nselection process.\nNow that a definite space has\nbeen designated for the building,\nthe Arts Undergraduate Society and\nFaculty of Arts will move forward\nwith further approval and the\ncollection of funds. Arts students\nagreed to fund half ofthe student\ncentre in annual instalments in last\nyear's referendum, which leaves the\nArts Student Centre in need of $2.75\nmillion.\nAUS President Sebastian Silley is\nhoping a donor will step up to fund\nthe space, but acknowledges that it\nmaybe difficult. \"That's our next\nmajor obstacle,\" he said, \"because\nonce we get the funding we can\nmove forward with everything\nelse.\"\nThis includes approval from\ndifferent levels of UBC executive\nbranches, ending with the Board of\nGovernors, as well as a design plan\nand construction timeline.\nAccording to Shecter, \"Every\napproval process is more and more\ndetailed, and as it becomes more\ndetailed it becomes more and more\nclear what exactly will be happening.\"\n\"We're not trying to rush through\n[the approval process],\" said Silley.\n\"We're trying to hit each step and\nmake sure we're hitting each mark\neffectively and fluidly, which is why\nthis one thing about the site is so\nhuge right now and it is propelling\nus to the next step.\"\nElle Clark, a fifth-year Arts\nstudent, was skeptical that the lot\nMottahed was skeptical of safety\ntips such as not walking alone at\nnight, which she said amount to\nvictim blaming.\n\"There's the notion of 'don't\nget raped' or 'don't get sexually\nassaulted,'\" she said. \"We need\nto switch that around and think\nabout 'don't sexually assault' and\n'don't rape.' [We need to] speak to\nthe greater community in terms of\nnot exerting power and enforcing\ncontrol over another person.\"\nMottahed said she would love to\nsee anti-violence ally training being\nmade available to everyone on campus. She also wants to ensure people\nare aware that SASC can be used as\na resource.\n\"SASC is always available for\nemotional support for survivors of\nsexual assault, their friends, their\nfamily, [and] other people who\nare feeling emotional triggers or\ntraumatized as well.\"\nVP Students Louise Cowin said\nthe RCMP news release ofthe\nthird incident was slipped under\nthe doors of all residents in UBC\nhousing. Notifications ofthe attacks\nhave been posted on social media\nand broadcast email was sent to\nall students.\nAccording to Cowin, administrators are meeting on Monday morning to discuss further preventative\nactions that could be taken.\n\"I think that this incident really\ndoes create the need for us not only\nto think about what we must do\ngiven the present situation,\" Cowin\nsaid, \"but also I think gives us\nopportunity to look at our regular\nstructure on a go-forward basis\n[and] whether we have the appropriate number and measures in place at\nall times, and this is not to say that\nwe don't.\n\"Police simply can't be on every\nstreet corner of every intersection\n24-7.\"\nAnyone with information that\ncould be used to identify the suspect\nis asked to contact the UBC RCMP\ndetachment at 604-224-1322 or\nCrimestoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS.\nSafewalk runs from 8 p.m. to 2\na.m. and canbe contacted at 604-\n822-5355. After Safewalk hours,\nCampus Security canbe contacted\nat 604-822-2222 or from a blue\nphone to accompany you home. XI\n-With files from Will McDonald,\nGeoff Lister andArno Rosenfeld\nwill provide adequate space for the\nbuilding, but saw a definite need\nfor the Arts Student Centre. \"We're\nalways wondering, where do we go?\nThere's not a lot of places for computers, hanging out \u00E2\u0080\u0094 even indoor\nseating is hard to find in Buchanan,\nso I think that it is necessary,\" she\nsaid.\nMoving forward with the centre,\nSilley and Shecter are both interested in student feedback and\nopen communication. \"This year,\nwe're going to work twice as hard\nto really get the communications\nout there and get the input and tell\npeople where we're at and what the\nthought process is,\" said Shecter,\nwho is organizing focus groups on\nthe centre in the coming months.\n\"After all, it is a student centre, so\nstudent feedback and asking what\nstudents want in there, that's what it\ncomes down to,\" Silley said.\nThe AUS would like to see the\nArts Student Centre open in five\nyears' time, but even with obstacles,\nthey are committed to the project.\n\"We need a student space because we're such a diverse faculty\nand we don't have a centralized\nlocation where people can come\nhang out,\" said Silley.\nThe AUS and Faculty of Arts\nhope to meet with UBC executives\nlater in the month as they continue\nworking towards the construction\nofthe new Arts Student Centre. XI NATIONAL I MONDAY, OCTOBER 21, 2013\nSUSTAINABILITY \u00C2\u00BB\nB.C. forests on the chopping block\nReport finds 2 million hectares of forests not satsifactorily restocked\nJulie Mcintosh\nThe Martlet\nVICTORIA (NUW) - B.C. forests may not be restocked in a\ntimely manner for future timber\ncrops and wildlife generations,\naccording to a recent report from\nthe B.C. Forest Practices Board.\nOn June 26, the board reported that approximately two\nmillion hectares of B.C. Crown\nland designated for timber\nharvesting is not satisfactorily\nrestocked (NSR).\nWhile timber harvesting companies plan to restock about half\na million of those NSR hectares,\nthe government only plans to\nrestock another quarter million hectares. According to the\nreport, this means that \"the total\narea of B.C.'s provincial forests\nthat may need to be restocked\nwith healthy young trees could\nexceed current reforestation\nefforts by more than one million\nhectares.\"\nConcerns about timely restocking efforts come from the\nchair ofthe B.C. Forest Practices Board, Al Gorley, in the\nsame report.\n\"Decisions about whether to\nreplant areas where mountain\npine beetle and fire have killed\nmost of the trees will have an impact on the future timber supply\nin the B.C. interior,\" said Gorley.\n\"At a minimum, if nature is left\nto take its course, the eventual\ncrop of timber in those areas will\nbe delayed.\nBrian Fawcett, cultural analyst\nand author of Virtual Clearcut: or,\nthe Way Things Are in My Hometown, said the effects ofthe delay\nare already apparent.\n=ILE PHOTO JOSH CURRAN/THE UBYSSEY\n3.C.'s forests, like Pacific Spirit Park near campus, are not being properly maintained, according to the B.C Forest Practices Board.\n\"The pine beetle infestation and chronic over-cutting,\nparticularly in the northern part\nofthe province, has created a\n50-year shortfall, and the seedling stock simply doesn't exist,\"\nFawcett said.\nIn the 18.1 million hectares\nthat have been affected by pine\nbeetle \u00E2\u0080\u0094 some of which is designated for timber harvesting \u00E2\u0080\u0094 it\nis unclear what actions need to\nbe taken.\n\"They could replant beetle-killed areas with spruce and\nother species,\" said Fawcett, \"and\nthere's a strong possibility that\nthe trees would die. On the other\nhand, they could replant with\npine and find that the beetles\nwill simply kill them. Which way\nthat will go isn't going to be clear\nfor about 10 years.\"\nThe B.C. government focuses\nlimited efforts on restocking mature, beetle-affected Crown land,\nas it hopes that industry will\nstill harvest those areas. Wherever a logging company harvests\ntimber, it has a legal obligation\nto restock the land, relieving the\ngovernment of that responsibility. If neither party acts soon,\nthe depletion of B.C.'s forests\nwill likely harm biodiversity and\nlong-term crop growth.\nIn spite ofthe growing number\nof NSR forests, the Ministry of\nJobs, Tourism and Innovations\nreleased a notice on July 5 stating\nthat over $2.3 million will be\ninvested this year in a program\ncalled Wood First. The program\nfocuses on using more B.C. wood\nproducts in commercial and\ngovernment buildings.\n\"Increasing the use of wood in\nBritish Columbia is a priority,\"\nsaid Pat Bell, minister of jobs,\ntourism and innovation.\nKen Wu, executive director\nof the Ancient Forest Alliance,\nsaid the Wood First program is\nnot a good idea when much of\nthe wood harvested in B.C. is not\nharvested sustainably.\n\"The amount of NSR land in part\nis because the logging industry has\ncreamed out the biggest, best trees\nthat grow in the valley bottoms and\nlower slopes,\" said Wu. \"It's the\nindustry's unsustainable activities\nthat drives the growth of NSR\nlands.\"\nFawcett said B.C.'s robust export\nindustry also plays a part in the NSR\nforest issue.\n\"Currently, B.C. exports large\nquantities of raw logs, which is\nfrankly crazy when you've got a\n50-year shortfall,\" said Fawcett. He\nadded that B.C. should be modifying its wood products in Canada in\norder to add more value to them.\nJess Ketchum, chair ofthe Wood\nFirst advisory committee, said the\nWood First program is good for B.C.\n\"This is a group of best-in-class\nleaders from their respective\nindustry sectors, and the first set\nof recommendations will enhance\nthe ability to grow the appropriate\nuse of wood products in B.C. and\nbeyond.\"\nGorley said the issue of NSR\nforests in B.C. boils down to a\nsingle question.\n\"Should we invest money now to\nensure a healthy timber supply into\nthe future, and, if so, how will we\nraise and invest it? But if action is to\nbe taken, it must be taken quickly,\"\nGorley said.\nFawcett believes a different question must be asked.\n\"The right question is whether\nit is viable to harvest trees at the\nscale we have,\" said Fawcett, \"and\nthe answer is no. We've cut down\ntoo many trees, and the issue is the\nlevel ofthe cut, not how much you\nreforest.\"\nQUEBEC\u00C2\u00BB\nPanel talks Enbridge pipeline in Ontario and Quebec\nEnvironmental, land use concerns associated with Enbridge Line 9\nMark Tartamella\nThe McGill Daily\nMONTREAL (NUW) - On\nOct. 10, CKUT 90.3 FM and the\nMcGill Sustainability Projects\nFund hosted the second installment of \"Under the Weather,\" a\nmonthly series focusing on\nclimate change.\nThis month's panel focused on\nLine 9, a pipeline owned by Enbridge that runs across Ontario\nand Quebec. The panel came\na day before National Energy\nBoard hearings on Enbridge's\nproposal to reverse and expand\nthe flow of Line 9 wrapped up\nin Montreal.\nLine 9 was originally built\nin 1976 and flowed eastward to\nMontreal, but was reversed in 1998\nto flow westward. It was built to\ntransport traditional crude oil, but\nthe proposed reversal will include\nthe transportation of bitumen\nfrom the Alberta oil sands.\n\"[Bitumen] is already even\nmore corrosive than traditional\noil [and] the superheated pipeline\nsystem used to transport it makes\nit unconventional,\" said Cameron\nFenton, director ofthe Canadian\nYouth Climate Coalition.

The\npipeline is primarily constructed\nwithin and around indigenous\nlands in Canada.\nCindy Spoon, campaign director for the Texas Tar Sands\nBlockade against the Keystone\nXL Pipeline, offered similar\nconcerns, arguing that pipelines\n\"disproportionately affect people\nof colour.\" Spoon said companies\nreach out to poorer communities\nin order to achieve what she\ncalled a \"facade of consent\" in order to legally seize communities'\nproperty to build pipelines.\nThese communities are less\nlikely to resist such actions,\nsaid Spoon.

That's what happens when\na team wins 60-0, which is what\nUBC did against the University of\nAlberta Golden Bears to give them\ntheir largest margin of victory in\nschool history.\nInterception. Recovered fumble.\n4 8-yard punt return (although not\nfor a touchdown \u00E2\u0080\u0094 that's one blank\nspot). Rushing touchdown. Passing\ntouchdown. 40-yard-plus field\ngoal. Fake punt for a first down.\nForced safety. Player with more\nthan 100 receiving yards.\nBingo.\nAt the start, it seemed as if the\nonly spots on the card that would\nbe filled were \"two-and-out\" and\n\"incomplete pass.\" Neither team\nrecorded a first down during their\nopening drives, even with UBC's\nBrandon Deschamps back on the\nfield after missing the last game\nwith a knee injury. Quarterback\nCarson Williams couldn't keep up\nhis stellar play from two weeks\nago, being pulled in favour of Greg\nBowcott after just two series.\nFrom that point on, there was\nno looking back for Bowcott and\nthe 'Birds. It started with four\ncompletions to David Scott that\nled to UBC's first touchdown, and\nended with Bowcott completing\n20 of 26 passes for 262 yards and\ntwo passing touchdowns that went\nalong with two rushing scores.\nScott had his second straight 100-\nyard receiving game, hauling in 11\ncatches for 167 yards. In his last\ntwo games, he's caught 18 passes\nfor 337 yards.\nBowcott has looked solid during\nhis playing time this year, but his\nonly letdown has been his ability\nto close out games. In the previous\nthree games where he played more\nthan 50 per cent ofthe game \u00E2\u0080\u0094 all\nat home \u00E2\u0080\u0094 he shone early on but\nfailed to deliver victories come\ncrunch time. On the other hand,\nUBC's three victories on the road\ncame when Williams stepped up\nin the fourth quarter to deliver big\nplays at key times.\nWhile this game wasn't exactly\na nail-biter, Bowcott had a chance\nto put the game out of reach at in\nthe third quarter when the 'Birds\nexited the locker room with a\n19-0 lead. He promptly did just\nthat, leading his team to 21 points\nin under 12 minutes to put the\ngame away.\nSo with playoffs on the horizon, the biggest question is whose\nnumber will be called to lead the\nteam come the must-win games.\nWilliams has delivered big wins on\nthe road, but Bowcott has looked\nlike the more complete QB most of\nthe time.\n\"I believe in both of those young\nmen. I believe they're both good,\nI think they both get hot and cold\nat times,\" said UBC head coach\nShawn Olson. \"I think our team\nreacts well to them. There's no\ncompetition.... They're just trying\nto do everything we canto get a\nwin on any given week, and they\nbought into that team mentality.\n\"Carson is our starter \u00E2\u0080\u0094 he's the\nguy that's started every game for\nus. But we've got two quarterbacks\nwho can play, and if one guy's hot,\nthen we'll ride him a little bit more\nthan the other guy.\"\nHowever, with the way UBC's\ndefence played, it didn't really\nmatter who was behind centre.\nIn a season where they've been\nfantastic all year, this performance\nwill take the cake. Yes, Alberta\nhasn't won a game since 2010, but\nthey've also scored between 17 and\n41 points in each of their previous\nsix games this year. They also\nscored 36 against the 'Birds in their\nprevious meeting in September.\nIn their first shutout win since\n2008, UBC gave up just 169 yards\non offence, while they earned that\nmany themselves in the first half\nalone. Alberta had 14 first downs\nand punted 13 times. Alberta didn't\neven get far enough into UBC\nterritory to attempt a field goal.\nUBC now has the best defence in\nthe league, allowing an average of\n415.1 yards per game. This defence\nis the main reason for the T-Birds'\nsuccess this year, and they can't be\npraised enough.\nThe T-Birds headed into this\ncontest having already clinched\na playoff berth due to a Regina\nloss to Calgary on Friday night,\nbut there was still a matter of\npositioning. At the moment, they\nlook poised to finish fourth, but\nthere is also a distant possibility of\nleap-frogging over Manitoba and\nSaskatchewan, both 4-3 as well.\nThis is key for the simple reason\nthat they would avoid playing Calgary (7-0) in the first round.\nTo finish higher than fourth,\nUBC needs to win the point differential battle with Manitoba if\nthey still have the same record, a\nteam they've gone 1-1 against this\nyear. This 60-point victory will go\na long way for aiding that causes.\nLosses by Manitoba and Saskatchewan would also help, because\nif this happens and UBC wins,\nthey'll jump into second place,\nwhich would give them a home\nplayoff game.\nAt this point, UBC is still in\na favourable position. They've\nshown they are a legitimate contender, hanging tough with each\nteam in the conference. This team\nhas surprised all season \u00E2\u0080\u0094 who\nknows what else they might have\nup their sleeve.

They get\ndecimated by the better teams in\nthe conference for the first three\ngames ofthe season, and then pull\noff the one victory they need to\nqualify for playoffs against their\nrivals in Victoria in a do-or-die\nfinal regular season match up.\nThis gives them the worst possible\nscenario for the semi-final game,\nin which they have to face Alberta,\nthe top-ranked team in the country.\nAnother blowout follows, but in\na conference with so few teams,\nUBC gets a chance to battle for\nbronze regardless.\nAgain, they fall short.\nHowever, based on scoring\nmargins, you could argue that UBC\nmade improvements this season.\nIn a valiant effort, the squad lost\ntheir Canada West bronze medal match 33-22 to the University\nof Lethbridge Pronghorns. Last\nyear, the same team crushed them\n60-7. Similarly, UBC squeezed into\nthe playoffs last year with a 10-5\nedge over Victoria, but this year\nthey put the game away with a\n46-point advantage.\nWhile the overall result is the\nsame, the improvements made\nthis year have rewarded new head\ncoach Maria Gallo with the Canada\nWest Coach ofthe Year award.\nIt seems a surprising choice\ngiven that her squad won just one\nof six games, but it should also be\nnoted that Gallo was hired in late\nJune, meaning she had no recruiting season and a relatively short\ntime to shape her players. The\nwomen's rugby team also has one\nofthe lowest budgets of any varsity\nteam at UBC \u00E2\u0080\u0094 so low that Gallo\npaid her assistant coaches out of\nher own salary. (In previous years,\nassistants were unpaid volunteers.)\nA former national team captain\nand a current UBC kinesiology\ninstructor, Gallo brings high hopes\nfor the future of this team. They\nmade strides this year, but ultimately, those improvements were not\nbig enough.\nThis recognition as coach ofthe\nyear, however, shows that the rest\nofthe conference has taken notice\nof UBC, and that they could be a\nteam to watch out for next season.\nHere's hoping that Gallo will agree\nto renew her one-year contract.

MONDAY, OCTOBER 21, 2013 | SPORTS + REC\nSOCCER\u00C2\u00BB\nWomen's soccer 'Birds fall in extra time\nFirst defeat comes in last regular season game, costing UBC the conference title\nNick Adams\nStaffWriter\nAfter a 2-0 win Friday night against\nMount Royal University, the\nwomen's soccer 'Birds could have\nclinched the division title on Saturday with a win against the University of Alberta Pandas. The three\npoints would have put them ahead\nof Victoria in Canada West and\ngiven them an undefeated season.\nHowever, the women fell 3-2 in\na game that, in the final moments,\ncould have gone either way.\nThe game didn't start off well for\nthe 'Birds. Attacking pressure by the\nPandas saw the ball remain in their\ndefensive third for the better part of\nthe half. Alberta struck early; Kelsey\nMitchell rang a 20-yard shot off the\ncrossbar only to be followed up by\nLaura Kautz. She put her shot to\nthe left side ofthe net, forcing UBC\nkeeper Alyssa Williamson to make a\ndiving save.\nFrom there, the pressure didn't\nrelent. After UBC striker Nicole\nSydor took a shot from afar, the ball\nstayed in Alberta's possession until\nthey finally converted. In the 37th\nminute, the 'Birds failed to clear a\nfree kick from outside the box, and\nin the ensuing chaos, Alberta striker\nShalla Kadima put the ball into the\nback ofthe net for a 1-0 lead.\nNear the end ofthe first 45 minutes, UBC pushed hard to reply but\ncame up short \u00E2\u0080\u0094 Jasmin Dhanda's\nshot off a free kick from the corner\nwas sent inches wide.\nAt the half, two different teams\ncame out. The tone ofthe game\nchanged completely and became\nsurprisingly entertaining in contrast\nto the first. Chances were created\nand converted at both ends.\nIn the 74th minute, Janine\nFrazao scored a penalty shot after\nan Alberta handball in the box.\nReinvigorated, the 'Birds pressed\non and, although they created some\ngood plays, conceded a goal off a\nheader from a corner to put them\nback down 2-1.\nThen, with five minutes to go,\nrookie Aman Shergill fired a dipping\nlaser from distance that no one,\nincluding the Alberta keeper, saw\ncoming. Her shot sprang the audience to life as the ball glided into the\nback ofthe net to make it 2-2.\nWith Shergill's goal, the 'Birds\nseemed to have gotten themselves\na point out of a game they didn't\ndeserve to win. However, Kadima, Alberta's striker, had other\nideas. With two goals already in\nthe game, she rounded out her hat\ntrick in extra time. A heartbreaking\nheader into the bottom corner of\nthe net gave Alberta a 3-2 lead and\nleft the 'Birds with no time to reply\nas the final whistle blew almost\nimmediately after.\nHeads and shoulders dropped on\nthe field and in the stadium as the\nPandas celebrated their win. But\nafter a tough loss, the only thing to\ndo is learn from your mistakes and\nmove forward.\n\"It is what it is and credit to\nthem. I think at the end ofthe day\nyou have to go through whatever\nteam in the next game,\" said coach\nAndrea Neil after the match. She\nseemed confident that, although\nthey were thrown off their game\ntoday, it won't happen again.\n\"Compliments to the [Alberta]\nteam. We got stretched, and lesson\nlearned,\" said Neil.\nHopefully that's true, because\nthe 'Birds will play the University\nof Calgary next Saturday, Oct. 26, at\nThunderbird Stadium for their first\nleg of post-season playoffs. Calgary,\na strongteam, will be a challenge,\nbut not one that the 'Birds aren't\nready to face.

He previously played\nagainst the University of Calgary\nDinos on Oct. 12, coming in during\nthe second frame after Steven\nStanford was chased.\n\"Hewie was really good,\" said\nUBC head coach Milan Dragicevic.\n\"He gave us an opportunity to win.\"\nRegina's Andrew Hayes was\nperfect, however, stonewalling\nall 30 shots he faced. Dragicevic\nthought his team could've made\nlife a little harder for him.\n\"I think we didn't put enough\npucks on the net,\" Dragicevic said.\n\"We were too pretty. We weren't\ngritty enough in the tough areas,\nand in the end, it cost us.\"\nThe Thunderbirds seemed to\ncontrol most ofthe play in the\nfirst period, generating some\ngood offensive chances, although\na few didn't count as shots on\ngoal. Two power plays generated\nnothing for the 'Birds, but they\nheld off Regina during their lone\nfirst period opportunity.\nClean passes were hard to come\nby for both sides, as the defensive\nsystems worked hard to clog up\nthe neutral zone and the slot. The\nThunderbirds started the second\nperiod on the power play, but the\nscrambling nature ofthe game\nmeant nothing came of it.\nDragicevic said special teams\nwere the difference maker. \"Our\npower play didn't shoot, it didn't\ngenerate anything for us,\" he\nadded. \"It's one of those things -\nthe power play can cost you the\ngame, and tonight [it did]. We\ndidn't execute.\"\nUBC couldn't take advantage\nof any ofthe six penalties called\nagainst Regina on the night.\nOn the bright side, the T-Birds'\npenalty kill was strong, forcing\nthe Cougars to go 0-5 on the\npower play.\nTroy Hunter scored the\nunassisted game-winning goal for\nRegina 2:33 into the third period,\ngiving them the only goal they\nwould need to take the game.\nThe T-Bird power play looked\nbetter at 9:56 when Regina's\nChristian Magnus took a tripping\ncall in the offensive zone, but the\nCougars' man-on-man penalty kill\nkept the play mostly to the outside.\nOnce again, the slot was clogged\nwith bodies, making tight passes\nnearly impossible.\nWith 8:10 left in the final\nperiod, T-Bird Brendon Wall took\nan interference penalty, making\nUBC shorthanded once again.\nA minute and change later, Neil\nManning high-sticked a Cougar,\nresulting in a four-minute double\nminor, putting the team down two\nmen. Luckily, the PK prevailed,\nbeautifully killing the 42-second\nfive-on-three.\nDragicevic was understandably upset with the fact that his\nteam was in the position of killing\na two-man advantage late in\nthe third.\n\"I was really disappointed\nwith the lack of discipline that\nwe had \u00E2\u0080\u0094 you're not going to win\nhockey games killing penalties,\"\nhe said. \"For the last two years, we\nwere the most disciplined team in\nCanada, and now we're taking bad\npenalties.\"\nHewitt was pulled with approximately a minute left in the\nfinal frame, allowing the 'Birds to\ngenerate a few more chances with\nthe extra man. With 34 seconds\nleft, however, they found themselves with a faceoff in their own\nzone, forcing Hewitt to come back\nin for the draw.\nAt this point, Dragicevic took a\ntimeout, allowing him a moment\nPHOTO ANNYGAKHOKIDZE3THE UBYSSEY\nNate Fleming scored his first goal of the season on Friday to start a UBC comeback.\nto compose his players and draw\nup a plan for the waning seconds.\nAfter a scramble in their own\nzone, the Thunderbirds got the\npuck and took off down the ice for\none final rush. The crowd's gasp\nwas audible as Regina's goal-\ntender was bowled over, the net\nknocked off, and the puck slid just\npast the outside post.\nA few inches to the right and\nthe 'Birds would've made a last-\nsecond comeback for the ages,\nbut it was not to be.

She was one of 15\nvolunteers who collected 5,000\ncigarette butts and randomly surveyed 700 students at UBC about\ntheir attitudes towards smoking at\nlast month's Butt Count.\n\"It's great to know that 72\nper cent ofthe students that we\ninterviewed were in support of\na smoke-free campus,\" she said.\n\"Personally, I think it would be\ngreat [if] UBC would become\nsmoke-free, because university is\na place for learning and a healthy\nenvironment.\"\nThe topic is personal for\nMahdaviani, whose father\nsmoked casually when she\nwas young.\n\"I was the reason that he\nstopped smoking when I was\nfive,\" she said. \"I had put up\n[anti-smoking] signs across the\nhouse ... so it was great for me to\nbe involved in this initiative and\nhelp my peers think about smoking, or quitting smoking.\"\nIn 2011, the University of Vic\ntoria moved all designated smoking areas outside of Ring Road.\nThe street circles the majority\nofthe school's classrooms, and\nencompasses the centre ofthe\nVancouver Island campus.\nRishabh Rekhade, a third-\nyear political science student at\nUBC, said a smoke-free campus\nwould be a turn-off for students\nwho come to the university from\naround the world.\n\"You'd certainly lose a lot of\ninternational students,\" Rekhade\nsaid. \"[The university] would just\nhave to think about the cost.\"\nAccording to Kathryn Seely,\nthe Canadian Cancer Society\npublic issues director for B.C.\nand the Yukon, there have not\nbeen issues with smoking restrictions in municipalities with\nhigher international populations,\nsuch as Richmond, Whistler\nand Surrey.\n\"They aren't finding problems\nwith enforcement in those areas,\nnor are they finding complaints\nbeing a problem. So it seems that\nthe international community, in\nfact the entire community, is welcoming of a ban,\" she said.\nAfter survey results from\nB.C. high schools were released\nrecently, the Canadian Cancer\nSociety called for the prov\nincial health minister to ban\nflavoured tobacco products\nthat were shown to be popular\namong teens.\nSeely said she is surprised\nto discover a lack of knowledge\nabout flavoured cigarettes while\nworking with young people.\n\"[Youth] are often unaware\nthat the fruit and candy-flavoured tobacco products are as\nharmful as tobacco products, or\nthat they even contain tobacco\nproducts.\"\nB.C.'s smoking rate among 19-\nto 34-year-olds exceeds the provincial average by more than six\nper cent.

That's how it started\nfor me,\" she said. \"And once\nyou're there, you're addicted.\"\nGehring said stress management is another contributing factor for smoking while\nat university.\n\"When you're smoking, it feels\ncalming, and then it becomes a\nhabit. Like when you're studying,\n'I need a minute to take a [smoke]\nbreak.'\"\nWith the exam season at hand,\nstudents might feel the urge to\nsmoke to relieve stress.\nDespite the various reasons for\nUBC students giving in to nicotine, Gehring maintained that\nthe attraction of smoking is not\nas powerful as it once was.\n\"It's not really seen as something that's cool anymore.\" tJ\nThose who are looking to quit smoking can callHealthLinkBC at 811.\nFOOD\u00C2\u00BB\nStudent\nCooking:\nmicrowave\nsweet potatoes\nPHOTO CARTER BRUNDAGE3THE UBYSSEY\nOlivia Williams\nContributor\nBelieve it or not, microwaved\nsweet potatoes can make for\na satisfying, healthy, delicious\nmeal for those short on both time\nand energy.

Self-published writers\nwill also feature at events this\nyear, a first for the festival.\nThese writers and the rest\nofthe extensive lineup all\ncontribute to the diversity of\nthe festival, which is a quality\nWake appreciates in Vancouver's own literary community.\n\"That's one ofthe most\nimportant characteristics,\"\nhe said. \"You can always find\nan event somewhere that's\ngoing to have a writer that\nyou know or care about.\"\nWith this in mind, Wake\nencourages people to explore\nthe festival.\n\"Access to books and\nreading is vital for any healthy\ncommunity,\" he said.\n\"We as a species are\nhard-wired to understand\nthe world through story....

Often\ntouted as one ofthe top\ncreative writing programs\nin the world, the department is also celebrating a\nmajor milestone this year: its\n50th anniversary.\nSpecial programs have\nbeen incorporated as part of\nthe VIWF lineup in commemoration ofthe anniversary. One ofthe main focuses\nin the programming is a\nshowcase of three high-profile non-fiction American\nwriters: George Packer, Alan\nWeisman and Eric Schlosser.\nThese acclaimed writers will\nbe tackling provocative and\nradical discussions about\nAmerican culture, nuclear\nweapons and apocalyptic\nsituations. Their individual\ndiscussions will be held\nfrom Oct. 24 through Oct.\n26 at 8 p.m. each night in\nthe Frederic Wood Theatre\non campus.\nThe VIWF has always\nbeen popular with UBC\nstudents, and its popularity is\nnot restricted to those within\nthe creative writing and English departments. In fact, in\nprevious years, a considerable\nnumber of students have been\nknown to cut classes in order\nto attend events spearheaded\nby their favourite graphic\nnovelists or fantasy writers.\nApproximately 300 student volunteers - a majority\nof whom are UBC students,\ndue to the festival's close ties\nwith the university - help to\nensure that this six-day-long\ncollection of events runs\nsmoothly. These volunteers\nhave the opportunity to gain\na backstage point of view of\nthe ambitious operation of\nthe festival.\nCelebrating 50 Years of\nStories is another highlight ofthe collaboration\nbetween UBC and the\nVIWF. This dialogue\nsession \u00E2\u0080\u0094 between recent graduates Theodora\nArmstrong, Amber Dawn\nand Kathryn Para, as well\nas two esteemed faculty\nmembers, Keith Maillard\nand George McWhirter \u00E2\u0080\u0094\npromises to be an articulate\nand thoughtful centrepiece\nexperience chock full of\nanecdotes and insight. Curious students can engage\nin learning how to hone\ntheir skills and raw talent\nas each of these seasoned\nwriters tackle a tough topic:\n\"How do you teach creative\nwriting?\" The dialogue\nsession will occur on Friday,\nOct. 25 at 6 p.m. at the\nWaterfront Theatre.\nThe VIWF has always been popular\nwith UBC students,\nand its popularity\nis not restricted to\nthose within the\ncreative writing\nand English\ndepartments.\nThere's also an afterparty\nplanned \u00E2\u0080\u0094 a Creative Writing\nBirthday Bash, where students can interact with these\nprofessional storytellers and\nmany more besides.\nSo for all logophiles out\nthere, be sure to heed the\nwords of festival artistic\ndirector Hal Wake: \"Take a\nchance and explore.\" 'tJ\n-Iman Ghosh II Opinions\nLAST WORDS: STAFF OPINIONS \u00C2\u00BB\nMake our campus safe\nCampus Security and the RCMP must stop the violent attacks \u00E2\u0080\u0094\nand no one should ever be afraid to speak up about sexual assault\nLLUSTRATION LUELLA SUN/THE UBYSSEY\nWe believe Campus Security and UBC RCMP take their work seriously and are good at their jobs, but more clearly needs to be done.\nCampus needs to be safe for\nstudents. Period.\nWe spend a lot of time\nopining on these pages about university policies, AMS foolishness\nand our pet peeves about campus\nlife, but all those issues pale in\ncomparison to the sexual assault\nof at least four women \u00E2\u0080\u0094 all UBC\nstudents \u00E2\u0080\u0094 at night on campus over\nthe past three weeks.\nWhen it comes to campus, the\nuniversity's number one priority\nmust be to make sure students are\nphysically safe at all times \u00E2\u0080\u0094 including alone at night.\nWhile nobody is to blame for\nthese repulsive, cowardly attacks\nother than the attacker or attackers\nwho have been trying to molest\nwomen, those responsible for\nsecurity on campus must be able\nto restore and maintain a sense of\nsafety for students.\nWe believe the RCMP and\nCampus Security are basically\ngood at their jobs and committed\nto protecting students. But as the\nattacks have gotten progressively\nmore violent, with the attacker\npunching the last woman in the\nface and tearing her clothing,\nlaw enforcement's apparent\nimpotence could well be empowering the criminals behind\nthese attacks.\nUBC released a statement\nfollowing the last attack telling students not to walk alone at night and\nnot to let their friends walk alone.\nThe RCMP also advised caution.\nStudents \"need to always be vigilant of their surroundings, and take\nevery precaution available to them\nto keep themselves from being a\nvictim,\" UBC RCMP spokesperson\nSgt. Drew Grainger told The\nUbyssey.\nThat shouldn't be true.\nWhile our campus is not small,\nUBC RCMP and Campus Security\nhave a set area within which they\nare expected to keep students\nsafe \u00E2\u0080\u0094 even at night. The repeated\nstatements from the university and\nthe RCMP essentially telling students to be more careful is a form of\nadmitting failure at this task.\nThe RCMP said they are taking\n\"sensitive\" measures to put an end\nto these attacks, and we hope those\nsucceed. But releasing clues such\nas \"the attacker spoke possibly\nwith an American accent\" makes\nit seem like law enforcement is\nfar from identifying suspects \u00E2\u0080\u0094\nand in fact they've said they have\nno leads in any ofthe cases they\nare investigating.\nThe reality is that even in the\nface of good police work, bad\npeople will often find ways to\ndo bad things. UBC's campus is\nsprawling, often shrouded in fog,\npoorly lit and deserted late at night.\nConstruction can obscure paths\nand force strange detours. For the\nmoment, students should heed\nthe calls being issued to exercise\ncaution at night on campus.\nBut Point Grey can't become\nknown as a place where rapists\ncome to prey on women. All the\nwomen who were attacked showed\ncourage in fighting off their attackers and forcing them to flee. If the\nattackers thought UBC's women\nwould make easy victims, they\nwere sorely mistaken.\nBut we can't rely on the strength\nand resolve of those being attacked\nto stop the sexual assaults. If the\nviolence continues to escalate,\nweapons are introduced or the attackers become more brazen, it will\nbecome increasingly impossible for\nanyone other than law enforcement\nto truly fend off these attacks.\nWe aren't law enforcement\nexperts, and we recognize those\ntasked with protecting Point Grey\nhave a tricky job. But more must\ndone. Point Grey is not Tijuana,\nKarachi or Detroit.\nWhile we don't want to see UBC\nturned into a police state, a serious\nshow of force by the RCMP and\nCampus Security might help send\nthe message to that Point Grey is no\nplace for criminals.\nTemporarily flooding campus on\nweekend nights with RCMP officers, strategically parking additional patrol cars around campus and\ninstalling temporary lighting and\nsurveillance cameras on dark paths\nwould no doubt aid in scaring off\nthe clearly cowardly attackers.\nThese measures should only be\ntaken temporarily \u00E2\u0080\u0094 they're not\nfinancially sustainable, and we\ndon't want floodlights illuminating\ncampus every night or surveillance\ncameras tracking our every move\nin the long term. But over the next\nfew weeks, pulling out the big guns\nwould demonstrate law enforcement's presence on campus and,\nequally importantly, show students\nlegitimately frightened by recent attacks that they aren't going unheard.\nWe all know there are certain\nplaces you shouldn't walk alone at\nnight. Our campus shouldn't be one\nof them.\nALL SEXUAL ASSAULT\nMATTERS\nSomeone jumping out from bushes\nat night and grabbing women is\nterrifying\u00E2\u0080\u0094 but let's not forget that\naccording to Statistics Canada,\n75 per cent of sexual assaults\nare perpetrated by someone the\nvictim knows.\nBecause these attacks don't\nconform to the standard image\nof sexual assault \u00E2\u0080\u0094 as the recent\nattacks on campus do \u00E2\u0080\u0094 victims are\noften left with little support.\nFor women (or men) who feel\nthey've been sexually assaulted,\nunderstand that you are never\ntoo drunk or too high, and the\npolice should not care what\nyou were wearing or how you\nwere acting. Report all sexual\nassaults immediately.\nEveryone else should remember\nthat even if you aren't jumping out\nof bushes late at night and violently\ngrabbing women, getting consent\nis still essential \u00E2\u0080\u0094 even if you don't\nmean any harm, even if you're in\na proper setting to hook up with\nsomeone and even if they seem\ninterested. XI\nIs UBC admin as serious about assaults as CUS FROSH?\nIn response to the Sauder rape\ncheer scandal earlier this year, the\nuniversity undertook an investigation, the president and other university administrators made public\nappearances to condemn what\nhappened. A task force was formed.\nThis was all done over a song.\nThe university needs to respond\nas robustly to the recent sexual\nassaults as they did to the Sauder\nFROSH events. They need to show\nthey're as serious about stopping\nany more women from being assaulted as they are about stopping\nany more first-years from hearing\nan offensive cheer.\nThere's a tendency in the academic world to embrace attempts to\ntackle the complex and deep-seated problems in society. The rape\ncheer fell into that category, at least\nto the extent that pundits \u00E2\u0080\u0094 and\neventually administrators like UBC\nPresident Stephen Toope \u00E2\u0080\u0094 saw\nit as a sign that our upstanding\nyoung people were behaving like\nvulgar misogynists.\nThe university was forced to\ntake on the cheer due in part to the\nnational media attention. But their\nresponse can also be seen in the\ncontext of academics striving to\nright a societal wrong.\n\"I think that we ... [can] seize\nthis moment, to strike at the casual\nindifference to sexual violence and\nintolerance which still marks pockets in our society,\" Toope said at the\ntime. He added that the task force\nwould \"outline broader actions to\nsupport the kind of transformative,\nrobust change we do believe is necessary on university campuses.\"\nFor Toope, this wasn't just about\na handful of first-years on a bus.\nThis was a chance for the university\nto lead on one ofthe pressing issues\nof our time. But while it might be a\nfun intellectual exercise, curricu\nlum tweaks and consent awareness\ncampaigns alone will not destroy\nrape culture at UBC, and whatever\nsuccess they do have will be hard\nto measure.\nHere's something that's not\nhard to measure: every weekend\nsince the end of September, at\nleast one woman has been ambushed on campus and violently\nsexual assaulted. Police have no\nsuspects, nor a clear, public plan to\nimprove security.\nThere are no deep moral quandaries to face and no earnest soul\nsearching to be done. Everyone\nagrees that these attacks are wrong,\nthat the person or people behind\nthem are bad and that the correct\nremedy is to throw them behind\nbars. Sexual assaults don't ask \"big\"\nquestions ofthe university.\nBut here's a question: how much\nmoney is UBC willing to devote\nto hiring new security personnel,\nor to issuing a report on how to\nimprove security on campus? How\nmuch money is UBC willing to\ndevote to installing better lighting\nor more blue emergency phones\naround campus?\nThe university had the Commerce Undergraduate Society\npledge a quarter of a million dollars\nto fight unclear \"systemic issues\"\nfollowing the rape cheer. That\nmoney is going to, among other\nthings, hiring a new professional\nposition with a similarly unclear\njob description.\nIf an offensive cheer about sexual\nviolence warranted hiring new\nfull-time staff and creating a specialized task force, what does the\nactual violent assault of over three\nstudents warrant?\nIt's time for the university to\nshow they take these actual assaults\nas seriously as they took the rape\ncheer \u00E2\u0080\u0094 even if the assaults lack\nthose hip intellectual questions,\nand even if the national media isn't\nbreathing down their neck.\nThe ball is in the administrators'\ncourt. It's time to make campus safe\nagain. XI\nMONDAY, OC\nIN HER OWN WORDS \u00C2\u00BB\nI was attacked on\ncampus\nI entered \"UBC sexual assault\" into\nthe Google search bar.\n\"UBC student assaulted on\ncampus.\"\n\"Sex assault at UBC sparks police\nwarning.\"\n\"RCMP looking forsuspect after\nsecond assault at UBC.\"\nReading the online headlines was\nwhen it hit me. Those articles were\ntalking about me \u00E2\u0080\u0094 I was now a\nnews story.\nI am telling my story so that \"the\nsecond sexual assault\" can start\nbeing seen as what it should be: a\nwarning, and a hard-knock glimpse\ninto a serious reality on our campus.\nLast week I arrived home at\nFairview Crescent. As I got to the\ndoor, I turned around to fetch my\nkeys from my bag and saw a man\nstanding behind me.\nCall me naive, but I actually\nwaved and was about to wish him\na good night\u00E2\u0080\u0094 I thought he was a\nneighbour I'd yet to meet, or another\nstudent waiting to get inside. It never\noccurred to me that he intended to\nharm me.\nIf you want to know what\nhappened afterthat.you can read\none of the dozens of news stories\npublished about the attack. I know\nI have. I've been forced to relive\nthe attack over and over again as\nfriends and family, unaware that it\nwas me who was attacked, send me\nnews story after news story about\nthe attack.\nAn attack like this one is personal. I feel violated as I walk around\ncampus overhearing conversations\nabout \"that girl who was attacked,\"\nor sitting in class within earshot of\nclassmates discussing my attack.\nImagine sitting in class and\nhaving the professor bring upyour\nsexual assault. I wanted to stand up\nat say, \"Yo, this is my story. Who are\nyou to talk about how I could have\nprevented this? Don't I have the right\nto walk home alone?\"\nWhat nobody seems to understand, and no newspaperarticle\nhas so far reflected, is howyour\nperspective changes following\nsomething like this; howyou become angry. Every time I see myself\nreferred to as a victim, I get angry. I\nwas attacked, but I am OK, or I will\nbe. The connotations surrounding\nthe word \"victim\" make me feel\nweak, and suggest that somehow\nthis man will stop mefrom being me.\nIt makes me see myself as a weak,\nCinderella-like character, dependent\non others.\nI have never been that woman\nand I never will be.\nIt makes me angry that we don't\nlive in a society where I can walk\nhome free from fear. Instead,! have\nto fear men because lama woman.\nInstead of ending rape culture, we\nperpetuate it through television,\nthrough music and through our own\nwords.\n\"Dude, I totally raped that midterm.\"\nDude, I'm pretty sure that's not\nwhat you did.\nDespite the anger, the best I can\ndo now is adapt. This happened to\nme, and it could happen to anyone\nreading this. Please do not let your\nfriends walk alone at night. Please.\nPlease. Please.\nI am OK, but it doesn't mean\nthewomanaftermewillbe, orthe\nwoman after her. xi\nThis piece was written by the woman\nattacked on Oct. 13,2013, the second of\nthe recent sexual assaults reported on\ncampus. When contactedbyThe Ubyssey\nfor comment, she said she preferred to tell\nthe story herself, in line with standard journalistic practice to not identify non-perpetrators in cases of sexual violence and the\nwoman's request for anonymity, we have\nwithheld her name.
