Rendezvous with Madness Film Festival
November 10, 2009 – 7:16 pm
We’re just learning that the Rendezvous with Madness Film Festival is halfway through its run this year, but we thought that many AECP students would still be interested.
The Rendezvous with Madness Film Festival explores cinematic representations of mental health and addiction. Film and video programs are followed by post-screening panel discussions with people who receive mental health and addiction services, as well as writers, directors, actors, health care professionals and academics.
There are films showing tonight through Saturday. Please check out the program and consider attending a screening.

Pedal Power at OISE November 24
November 10, 2009 – 6:58 pm
Students on Seven (SOS) and TorontotheBetter present:
From bicycle-mad Paris to rush-hour New York and the back alleys of Toronto, take a ride through the changing world of bike culture.
Toronto is grappling with whether to really embrace bike culture. What does it take to be truly bike-friendly like Amsterdam, Paris, or even New York City? A series of character mini-narratives propel the film through a study of what makes a city “bikeable”.
Join co-director Chris Sumpton and Taodgh Burns from Toronto’s Community Bicycle Network for a lively discussion after the screening.

The History and Philosophy of Education program at OISE may be closed

positive External Reviews of this Doctoral program nor any relation to

their demand, in which History and Philosophy detailed the actual
vibrancy of graduate program at OISE (7 faculty, 17 Associate
Instructors, and 85 graduate students).
deciding whether to abide by this recommendation. SIGN THIS PETITION TO TELL THE UNIVERSITY OF TORONTO: 1. There is a fundamental problem with the decision\’s basis to close
the graduate program based on “imminent returements”—on the basis of
the AGE of 2 of its 7 tenured faculty – who have NO plans to retire. 2. To indicate your objection to the unjustified threatened closure of
the doctoral program in History and Philosophy of Education at OISE,
UT. Given the value of humanities, quality of this renowned program, 85
current graduate students, and committed faculty, keep this program
alive and grant it the new faculty position that will evidence
institutional support presently denied. http://www.petitionspot.com/petitions/SaveHandP
