The Crew Column

First off, thanks to all math students who were able to attend the Russell Peters shows last week. We've received a lot of positive as well as constructive feedback from both nights and are pleased to have been able to offer UW students a night off from studying.

Following the success of Russell Peters comes a brand new style of event here at the university: BLACKOUT! On March 30th 2005, at 12:30pm and again at 2:30pm, the SLC Great Hall will undergo a complete transformation. From covering up the hundreds of skylights and killing the houselights, to bringing in full stage, sound, and concert lighting, we hope to present a show unlike any other.

Groups that have been invited to perform include: UW Breakers, UW Hip-Hop, the UW Dance Pack with special guests — the unbelievable Team Ryouko. This will truly be a spectacle so crazy it will make π look rational! (That's right, we have mathies on the crew). To top it all off, we will be offering the cheapest food in Kitchener-Waterloo. Pizza slices will be on sale for fifty cents. That's right — below cost! Basically this event is an end of term 'thank you', and an exciting way to cap off the Winter 2005 term with a free show and some close-to-free food. We hope to see you there.
