But really W most likely stands for Withdrew or Withdrawn, or something along those lines

The registrar does not list "W" as an abbreviation for transcripts. If this is appearing on yours, you should contact them to inquire.

A friend of mine contacted them and asked, they said it's the same as "canceled".

They probably changed it and forgot to mention it. Seeing how Mosaic is a giant piece of shit, are you really that surprised?

Is there some central authority that is responsible for maintaining the mcmaster website with up to date info? One, I found no mention of a mark of "W" on any mcmaster website, other university results showed up though. Two, while searching I found a page that still says MSAF covers 5 days.

Doubt it. When CAS department changed their website 2-3 years ago, most links were broken until last year.

Clearly our money is going to the right place. I hope that MSU president slips on the floor in that University paid penthouse apartment the position comes with.

Invite him on a personal tour of ITB, George. Make sure you show him the 2nd floor washroom, maybe he'll slip there.

Really, a penthouse for the MSU president? This is quite ridiculous. Wait, is this the penthouse? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-p83dXUyKiI

Obviously it's not something a wall street businessman would own, but it's still too much for all the "work" that he does.
