over The EDGE page 7 Wednesday, Oct 25, 1995 HEALTH CENTER HAS OPEN ARMS UNBC Health Cen- tre is located in Room 5- 106. The Health Centre is a place where students can obtain health information and access nursing ser- vices. Services are centred around prevention, health promotion, and treatment. Nursing services and Health Centre activities are holistic, culturally sensitive and student-centred. The Centre offers confidential health services that assist student in the following ways: 1. to manage short and longer term ill- nesses or health problems. 2. to answer questions on health-related topics such as stress, nutri- tion, diet, family planning, communicable diseases and safer sex. 3. to access written information on a variety of health topics such as hepatitis, AIDs, diabetes, and nutrition. 4. to obtain information about health concerns/topics through one-to-one counseling or workshops. 5. to learn more about healthy lifestyles and how to man- age lifestyle changes(smoking cessation, healthy eating, fitness). No appointments are needed during sched- uled nurse clinic hours— students are seen on a drop-in basis. Students may wish to see the nurse with health questions or concerns during these clin- ics. Students are required to present their ID card when they are seen. The other hours on the schedule are reserved for outreach types of activi- ties, committee work, edu cational events, presenta- tions, and workshop preparation. Students, stu- dent groups or faculty re- questing a workshop or presentation for students on health topics may con- tact Robin Johnson, Uni- versity Nurse, at the Health Centre (960-6370 or johnsonr@unbe.edu). All are encouraged to contact the Health Centre for dates and times of special events or programmes. Individuals inter- ested in participating on the Health Council which gives input on Health Cen- tre programmes and activi- ties are encouraged to con-_ tact the Health Centre for further details. Student Wellness is impor- tant at the UNBC Health Centre! Space Management 201 by Doug Smith For those of us who have lockers here at UNBC we all know about his special class. Some have no trouble at all passing Space Management 201, but many are suffering terrible woes. Of course this is a story complain- ing about the minuscule lockers at UNBC. The requirement to pass Space Management 201 sounds simple enough, but it can be quite a chal- lenge. Alla student has to do is cram his or her be- longings into a 90 cm by 30 cm by 25 cm space. That’s 0.07 cubic meters to force, shove, stuff, cram, pack, compress, jam, and thrust every- thing a student could pos- sible need into. It just isn’t enough space. Think of all that has to go UNBC BALDERDASH by Paul Berard & James Gordon Well, this marks the start of one of our new columns. We hope you like it. The word we asked you, the populace, to define for this issue was: VALETUDINARIANISM These are just some of the responses we received: -The ideology of how valid things are -Study of the motives and basic principles behind courage and coura- geous people -Something to do with valet parking = -Sect or philosophy that follows the language of valley girls -Servitude to someone -A study of the procedure and involvement of a valet -A person that has to urinate very badly while parking cars, but can- not go to the washroom for 25 minutes -The place my dog goes to the washroom -The movement of people who believe we should look towards death And probably one of the most thought out ones was: -Back in 1542 in the land of Tudinar, there was a study in the govern- ment having to do with the most important person who would give a speech to the people each year before an election. The purpose of this was to inform the people about the new candidates and their good points so you could decide.which .way you were going to vote Well, thank you for your creative ideas... but no, sorry the correct definition is: -The belief one is in feeble health We shall be out and about for the next issue so beware... and read those dictionaries. Also please cooperate if you are asked for next is- sue. into one’s locker. An average person could have four classes, so that requires room for at least four textbooks and accompanying note- books. Then space is needed for personal belongings - some sort of bag or backpack to haul everything it, a jacket (winter jackets take up quite a bit of space), boots (for when it snows), and maybe some other items (e.g. Fitness Centre attire). There seems to be no easy way to pass Space Manage- ment 201. Some are creative and construct shelves within their lockers. Some cheat and buy a second locker. Unfortunately most are stuck with their own little domains and live the ag- gravation. Top 10 Crappiest Tricks and Treats by Vince Yim 10. Pennies 9. Goodies candy covered licorice 8.
