Thousands of people in Iran are denied formal university education due to their religious or ideological beliefs. "Education under Fire" is a 30-minute documentary telling the poignant and compelling story of the Bahai'i Institution for Higher Education (BIHE) -- the only chance for an entire minority community in Iran to receive an education. In May 2011, the BIHE was attacked and another door to a basic human right was closed. The screening of "Education Under Fire" is March 25 at 7.00 pm in McDougall 242.
Sponsored by the faculty of education.
All are welcome.

91探花 and the Department of Athletics and Recreation are proud of our
facilities. Our goals are to provide you with quality programming,
state-of-the-art exercise equipment, and a clean and inviting atmosphere.
To reach our goals, we ask for your cooperation!
Our turnstile systems (located in the main lobby and fitness centre) are
not only our primary point of entry, but also our system for tracking
membership usage. When you swipe your card, you provide us with valuable
information鈥攊nformation that enables us to work with other 91探花 departments
to create the best health and wellness experience for you.
So what does this mean?
Beginning March 25, 2013, swiping your card for entry is mandatory. We
will help you by directing you to the turnstile with signs, and who knows?
Your 鈥渟wipe鈥 may be the very one chosen in our weekly draws for some 91探花
prizes!
