|
Disagreements and accusations about mismanaged funds obtained through the health and dental plan are flying following a recently released RSU audit.
Deloitte & Touche LLP put out recommendations following its audit of the Ryerson Students' Union Members' Health and Dental Plan, as well as RSU election procedures last week. Among the results of the $85,000 audit was the recommendation that the RSU keep better records of the money owed to students.

By speaking at conferences, contributing research, and teaching students about social inclusion, the program’s faculty members have been activists in urging the government to close these institutions.
Finally, the school’s hard work has come to fruition, while demonstrating that universities can influence government policy.

Science Rendezvous
|
|
From robot sumo wrestling to the sweet science of chocolate, Ryerson will show off its science chops on May 9 when city-wide exhibit, Science Rendezvous, rolls around.
The event is in its second year, but this will be the first time that Ryerson will participate. Operating similar to Nuit Blanche, Science Rendezvous gives people a chance to see and take part in the most cutting-edge science research the city has to offer. The University of Toronto and York University will also be involved in the event, which runs from 10 a.m to 6 p.m.
The event means more than just a couple experiments will be on display.

Ryerson’s local motive: is the campus food provider Aramark as green as it should be?
|
|
Where does your food come from? For Ryerson students, the simple answer is Aramark. Ryerson has had an exclusive contract with the company since 1993.
However, where Aramark gets the food from is more difficult to answer. There’s no literature about Ryerson’s participation in the local food movement on campus, or any indication of which farms grow the produce Ryerson students are eating.
