      I've
      also
     
     
      been
      working
      with
      Clare
     
     
      Henderson,
      Chair
      of
      Council,
      to
     
     
      put

      scheduled
      to
      happen
     
     
      sometime
      in
      mid
      November.
      This
     
     
      promises
      to
      be
      a
      good
      time,
      sol
      _
     
     
      encourage
      all
      the
      ladies
      on
      campus
     
     
      to
      bring
      their
      jammies,
      favourite
     
     
      girlie
      movies,
      and
      singing
      voices
      to
     
     
      help
      raise

      Another
      big
      endeavour
      for
     
     
      this
      month
      has
      been
      promoting
      the
     
     
      Provincial
      Election.
      We
      need
      to
     
     
      make
      post
      secondary
      education
      a
     
     
      priority,
      and
      that
      means
      getting
      stu-
     
     
      dents
      out
      to
      cast
      their
      votes.
      A
     
     
      leadership
      debate
      was
      held
      in
      the
     
     
      Student
      Centre
      on
      September
      16,
     
     
      and
      it
      was
      great
      to
      see
      a
      number
      of
     
     
      UPEI
      students
      show
      up
      to
      hear
     
     
      about
      what
      each
      party
      had
      to
      say.
     
     
      I've
      been
      recruiting
      interested
      stu-
     
     
      dents
      in
      hopes
      of
      implementing
     
     
      Safe
      Walk,
      a
      program
      that
      has
      been
     
     
      very
      successful
      at
      other
      universi-
     
     
      ties.
      This
      would
      be
      a
      volunteer-
     
     
      based
      program,
      and
      I'm
      asking
     
     
      interested
      students
      to
      donate
      some
     
     
      time
      to
      help
      keep
      our
      campus
      safe.
     
     
      The
      objective
      is
      to
      ensure
      that
      no
     
     
      student,
      staff
      or
      faculty
      member
      -
     
     
      male,
      female,
      whatever
      -
      should
     
     
      have
      to
      walk
      across
      campus
      alone
     
     
      at
      night.
      PEI
      is
      a
      pretty
      peaceful
     
     
      place,
      but
      such
      a
      program
      shouldn't
     
     
      have
      to
      be
      formed
      in
      response
      to
      a
     
     
      crime
      wave;
      the
      idea
      is
      to
      keep
      the
     
     
      UPEI
      campus
      safe.

      visited
      the

      a
      few

      really,
      what
      do
      we
