I post this as it is important that UMSU members know this is occuring.

Here is a classic

From CJOB:

A group of M.I.T. students turned out to be no match for the University of Manitoba.
Some U of M students entered a military-sponsored international robot plane competition in Maryland, and beat 17 other schools, including M.I.T., Cornell, and a university from Istanbul.
The Manitoban team took first place overall, and first place in the flight category.
The purpose of the flying portion of the contest was to create a unmanned aircraft to be launced by radio control, which would switch into autonomous control once in flight and be guided by a computer.
The Manitoban plane completed its flight without any human control, including takeoff and landing.
The students were awarded $5,000 for their efforts.

The Toban has begun their 2006/2007 publishing season. Overall, an alright newpaper this time.
I did enjoy the following article so much that I have decided to kill my bandwidth by putting up on my blog.

I wish I was in the ‘Peg right now cause I am up for a little bit of protesting, especially when Universities are allowed to just create fees out of nowhere in order to get around a fully funded tuition freeze.
Anyway, UMSU is going to protest next Monday at the Leg’:

If you can be there, make sure you are!

UMSU is holding a midsummer protest at the Leg on June 26th.
