- The Vari Hall Rotunda
- The Student Centre

International Women’s Day is not enough time to focus on movements and work that women are engaged in, support, and lead. Our next publication will be a Women’s Issue! We are particularly seeking articles, interviews, poetry and art that reflect women of colour, Indigenous women, queer women, women with disabilities, women and labour, and all the lovely groups of women that fit in and outside of these categories!

In addition to the above theme, we also highly encourage submissions on social movements that outline various groups of people working toward social change!

Topics are not limited but may include:

- Union organizing
- Student movements
- Indigenous political organizing
- Solidarity groups
- Anti-war organizing
- Resistance related to the financial crisis
- Developments related to 2010
- Anti-poverty work
- Communist movements
- Anarchist movements
- LBGT activism
- CUPE 3903 labour struggle
- Canada's role in Afghanistan – Canada as a peacekeeper myth
- Campus space issues (i.e. Vari Hall as historical site of contention)
