A months-long investigation by Arthur has revealed that the Residence Life Don position at Trent is far from being a university student's dream come true. From an unpredictable discount on residency, meagre compensation, to the very integrity of the job—being a Don is not as lavish as it is made out to be. Dons across Trent’s collegiate residences have come forward accusing Trent of fomenting a culture of overwork in which dons are underprepared and undercompensated for the emotionally and mentally demanding job they are asked to do.
In this second edition of my ongoing interviews with Neurodivergent professors here at Trent, we speak with Derek Newman-Stille (They/Them), a nine-time Aurora Award winner for fantasy and science fiction writing, and Trent PhD candidate, who specializes in fat studies, disability studies, and queer studies.
Members of the student body share their thoughts with the inimitable editors of Alfred. A union boasts of their fair and democratic elections, and a concerned student sounds the alarm about a red scare inside a long-standing campus institution. Read on to find out more!
Arthur is back for round two with Issue 1. In this issue you'll find interviews with Stephen Stohn and the proprietors of Peterborough's newest independent bookstore, Take Cover Books. Get the latest on City Council's strategy on homelessness and reports from the ground of local protests. We're also happy to introduce a new column with "Gator Goes Global" and the return of fan favourite "Cinevangelism."
Arthur is sooo back! After a rejuvenating summer sabbatical in the woods, Arthur returns just in time for the school year with more of the hard-hitting community reporting you've come to expect from this small but mighty rag. In Issue 0, you'll find articles by community members about the experiences of graduate students post-graduation, the pitfalls of corporate culture, and why Bata Library isn't so aptly named. You'll also find a veritable cornucopia of book and film reviews. This issue also includes a feature article on the Peterborough Museum and Archives' newest exhibit: "To Honour and Respect: Gifts from Michi Saagiig Women to the Prince of Wales, 1860.”
Happy Holidays from all of us at Arthur! The final issue of 2023 includes an editorial about the latest approach to addressing the homelessness crisis in our community, an interview with the Trent University Alternative Arts Collective (TUAAC), an announcement concerning Trent's newest College, and the return of "Dear David" in The Bowlcut. All this alongside updates from City Hall and the launch of a new section we have opted to call "Fistfuls" - story stories that pack a punch. From everyone at the paper, we wish you and yours a restful holiday season! See you in the New Year!
Happy Tortured Poets Department release day to all who celebrate! Having listened to all two hours of the extended "Anthology" edition of this most recent emission from the Queen of jet-setting herself the editors get down and dirty in the lyrical content of the album.
