Course Outlines

Posted by jhan523


Some of you may know about MacInsider's Course Outline section: http://www.macinsiders.com/forumdisp...lines-152.html

I've gone through the course outlines and updated the threads with links to department websites. Many departments now provide their course outlines on their website (Most of them are current course outlines, some also include historic course outlines).

CBC Launches Digital Hamilton Service

Posted by Chad




Today, CBC officially launched CBC HAMILTON, an innovative new digital service, as part of the public broadcaster’s commitment to expanding local services to communities across the country.

All of our information can be seen on any digital device—desktop, smartphone or tablet—so Hamiltonians can always get what they need, when and where they want it. Adding to the ease of service, there’s a pinned map on the home page—zoom to your neighbourhood and find out what’s going on closest to where you live. And the homepage always leads with the most recent information—with one look, you’re always up-to-the-minute on what’s happening in Hamilton.

Check out the site here: http://www.cbc.ca/hamilton/

Fencing Beginner Classes

Posted by kjacenko


Hey folks,

Summer beginner classes are starting soon with our demo night this Tuesday, April 24th, 2012 at 7:30 pm at the Fitzhenry Studio (beside the indoor track). Weapon demonstrations will be done by members of the Varsity team along with the basic info from our coaches. Come on out and check out what it's all about. Note that those unable to come to the demo can still sign up for the classes. (Sign up can be done at the front of DBAC where you get your Pulse memberships or online at Athrec's site) A flyer's attached. Those of you who are moving away for the summer and returning in September, stay tuned for the Fall beginner classes.

Some people have been emailing me here and there about fencing, so don't hesitate to ask a question.

Hope to see you there!

KJ
