The University of Calgary Students' Union approved over $1 million in redevelopment funding Tuesday night; over $200,000 is allotted to SU office renovations. The motion passed unanimously in its second reading at the Students' Legislative Council meeting.

On Dec. 9, the University of Calgary Board of Governors will convene to decide the rate of tuition increase at this institution. The Board will likely accept the percentage agreed upon between the Students' Union and the U of C Administration in tuition consultation.

The world has become such an exercise in specialization that much of what goes on in business and politics skims over or under our awareness without making a ripple in the Lake Give-a-Damn of our consciousness. It isn't so much that we don't care what goes on in the world as there isn't time to learn about it, have a life and feel we are making a difference. But the small "p" protest of ethical consumption is helping to change that.
