My school is instituting furloughs. I just got the list of dates today.
I’m going to be on furlough two days this upcoming semester. It doesn’t seem like a lot – but I hate it. I don’t make much money to begin with, and I resent losing $150 in income.
In addition to that, I’m losing one [...]

Hi,
I’m looking for a way to play some lightly competitive organized sports at U of T. Specifically, I’d be interested in basketball, soccer (indoor and outdoor), or volleyball. I’m open to mixed gender leagues (I’m a guy).
