New News: Things that Will be Happening Last Fornight

• This week is Welcome Week! It's like Frosh week, but you have classes in the middle of all the events and, while you're actually allowed to participate this week, you've outgrown all that silly stuff anyways.
• You have one last chance to see the giant tie on Monday morning, before Plant Ops comes and takes it down. Yes, the great symbol of our faculty has been fixed and returned to its rightful place. Let Mathies everywhere rejoice!
• Thursday, there will be free ice cream available in the Davis Centre at 3:30 PM, to celebrate that the University finally found someone to take care of David Johnston.
• Friday, at 4:30 PM, applications close for MathSoc director positions. If you've always dreamed of holding a position with a fancy title and no real duties in an 'organization' less organized than the Tibetan government, this is your chance!
• Next Wednesday and Thursday, you can visit the Slice (Student Life Center) to see what clubs you should make fun of in mathNEWS this term. Rumour has it that the Ham Radio Club will be setting up a display.
• Throughout these two weeks, clubs will be starting up their meetings and, importantly, executive elections for the term. For many of these clubs, if you show up, you have a reasonable shot of getting elected to something. You've always wanted to be the Secretary of the UW Conservatives, right?
• And, lastly, for those of you looking for packing foam, papier mache, a stool, or some emergency toilet paper, Imprint is published every Friday. Show up early in the morning to the lesser-known newsracks and pick up the softest copies, or brave the neverending supplies in the Slice.
