Last year the AMS held a competition to name the new bubble tea shop opening in the Nest. The winner got a drink named after them, so perhaps this is the time to pull out the dad jokes and bad puns to have a taco named in your honour.
While this may seem like an unnecessary added expense, one of the main goals of the ten-year plan is to reduce overcrowding and I'm pretty sure we can all spare a dime or two to avoid getting elbowed in the face every day while commuting on the 99.
UBC tied for twenty-first out of twenty-three so it's not as bad as it sounds. According to Wikipedia there are 98 universities in Canada, so we're basically in the top 20 per cent in the grand scheme of things.
