Motion to approve UTSU AGM agenda fails
The motion to approve the agenda at the Annual General Meeting of the University of Toronto Students’ Union failed last night shortly after the meeting was called to order, bringing the meeting to a sudden halt.
Held at the meeting room of the Medical Sciences Building at the St. George campus and scheduled to begin at 6 p.m., the meeting was not called to order until well after 8 p.m.
Members of the union tried unsuccessfully to amend the agenda after an emotional presidential address from Shaun Shepherd.
Leading up to the agenda vote was the speech by Trinity College head Samuel Greene, who called for electoral reform and urged members not to approve the agenda.
The motion to approve the agenda was defeated with an unofficial tally of 999 votes against 905 in favour.
The chair, Ashkon Hashemi, then declared the meeting at an end and, amidst cheering and booing, the room slowly cleared out.
“Students win!” members called out, as students offered each other congratulations.
Look out for more in-depth coverage on the UTSU AGM of 2012 in Monday’s issue.

The study, which says PMS may not exist, has generated an almost zealous response against it. The news broadcast by CTV News interviewed people who bluntly said the study is wrong, and that female hormones fluctuate, hence the ‘mood swings’. Although the physiological symptoms of PMS, bloating and cramping, are true, Dr. Gillian Einstein says there is no […]
UTM’s treasure
Enjoy this short journey through UTM's oldest jewelWhen people mention UTM, they imagine a campus nestled in forest, overthrown with deers. But we are much more than that, we are a campus in-tune with our surroundings, from the rooftop green room in the South Building Davis Building to the McGrath Valley garden. Even the construction around us will soon give way to facilities equipped to the most minute of details (low-power handicap doors). These are the reasons why we can differentiate ourselves from the other two campus’.
But another old jewel is quickly becoming forgotten in the midst of new construction: UTM’s nature trail.
Exactly how old is this jewel? Beside you’ll see the cover issue of the Erindalian, what we were called before The Medium, dating back to 1973. There you will see a photo of the trail, and the Davis Building back when it was new.
The video above is only a teaser of what to expect, and really does no justice. While it’s somewhat bearable outside, be sure to take a walk to fully enjoy what UTM has to offer. The entrance to the trail is located down Principal’s road by the cul-de-sac to the right.
