In light of its recent closure, I’d like to offer a few suggestions of ways to use the Perch space that students will love. Will they make the AMS money? Probably not. Will they actually worsen their debt? Most likely, yes.

All the used furniture in the old SUB will be on sale and available at discounted prices. So if you happen to be in the market for a Bernoulli crumb-encrusted chair with the butt imprints of the hundreds of students before you, this is your gig.
I kid you not, ice cream is probably my most consumed food. Remember Buddy from Elf and his obsession with candy and syrup? That is like me — but with ice cream. I have made it my mission to track down the city’s best ice cream.
Have you heard? Some-tea-ng new is bubbling in the basement of the Nest. Hopefully that spectacular pun was a good indication that a bubble tea shop is set to replace Lowercase this summer — and the AMS is running a contest to name it.
On Wednesdays, the farm journeys to the heart of campus and sets up vendor-style right outside the bookstore. Yesterday, they had a quaint little set up with radishes, strawberries, parsley, thyme and spinach to name just a few.
Congratulations on being accepted to UBC! Now that you’ve accepted your offer of admission, it’s only right for UBC to throw you into probably one of the most confusing things you’ll ever do in your years here — registering for courses.
Now that it’s finally warm in Vancouver and classes are out — with exception to the dedicated summer students — it’s time to relax with an ice cold brew. Preferably on a patio. Overlooking the ocean. And mountains.
He's stylish, he's hip and he's ours now. He's the president UBC needs, but not the one it deserves right now. Perhaps he will usher in a new age of transparency and stable employment at UBC — dare I coin the phrase “The Santaissance”?
Don't limit yourself to the coffee at Starbucks or Blenz — take a peek at Vancouver’s cafe gentrification first hand. Here are some establishments that will make you re-evaluate the term “pretentious hipster.”
The UBC Housing website has fun descriptive words like “extraordinary experience” and “study-oriented atmosphere.” But what does that even mean? (The correct answer is nobody knows what it means, but it’s provocative — it gets the people going.)
1. Find The Ubyssey’s office 2. Beat an editor at Smash Bros. in The Ubyssey’s office 3. Write for The Ubyssey. 4. Name a squirrel 5. Fight a squirrel 6. Take a nap at the UBC Aquatic Centre 7. Swim in the fountain 8. Piss in the fountain
The AMS's bubble tea shop naming contest finished on June 28 and it's anyone's game to win. People were creative and clever, so naturally we combed through the submissions and came up with a list of the greatest hits.
The new bus stops include 44 Downtown and 84 VCC-Clark Station, and can take you on the express downtown and to Commercial Drive, respectively. This change will make the bus loop on Wesbrook Mall a little less hectic.
Judd Nelson, who many may know from ’80s classics such as The Breakfast Club or St. Elmo's Fire, is apparently cast in the film. So set stalking is slightly more acceptable this time around — 10 points to whoever blasts “Don't You” from a boombox.
If you’re tired of the same old night out drinking at The Pit or partying at Koerner’s, check out some of these quirky spots around Vancouver where drinking is permitted and encouraged, but not the main event.
