This issue has been one for
the record book.

We joined the Canadian
University Press (CUP).

The future of Over The
Edge is still tedious .at best,
but the increased quality,
both in text and layout feel,
will give the paper a broader,
. brighter future. I would like
to take this oppourtunity, on
behalf of the volunteer staff
that has backed the paper, to
invite everyone at UNBC to
write for the paper.

Our future can only be
improved with the addition
of new blood to the process.
The volunteer staff has
dedicated a great deal of time
and energy to putting
nineteen consecutive issues
of Over The Edge to press

As a fully accredited

during the eighteen months
that I’ve been here. The
previous administrations that
governed Over The Edge
produced eight issues over
the course of one year for a
total of twenty-seven. Most
of these issues would not
have been published had it
not been for the creativeness

and dedication of students at -

UNBC. We’d like to hear
from you more often.

know if I will be here, seeing
as a dedication to my

things in the works that are
for you, the student body.

And, provided that all goes
well, Over The Edge is
heading nowhere but up.
The sky’s the limit.

Ten Column Was Notably
Absent From The Hallowe’en
Issue Of Over The Edge

by Vince Yim

10: Blame the computer. Hey, the rest of us do.

9: Being that the Top Ten column had a Hallowe’en
theme (“Top Ten Hallowe’en Costumes That You’ll Most
Likely Get Beaten Up For Wearing”) and the issue was
released a week after Hallowe’en, it just seemed kinda
pointless to run it.

8: WE JUST FORGOT.

7: We lost the hard copy in the midst of the recent snow
storms.

6: It sucked so bad that not even Over The Edge would
print it.

5: It was actually printed, but it was on the far right edge
of page 9 (the PIRG page) and the far left of page 10 (the
Big Sugar review), so as a result it got cut off. Really!

4: One of our staff members read it backwards and

thought it was giving him instructions to climb to the top

of the tower and shoot at people (which is kinda stupid,
considering that you can’t actually do that).

3: Somebody threatened to dress us all up as Barney and

leave us in the middle of the courtyard with no way to
take the costume off, unless we agreed to pull that
particular Top Ten column.

2: It really was pasted up, except it kinda fell off the
layout sheet when it was sent to the printers. _
