A study by a UBC professor concludes that an extensive light-rail system across Vancouver would be cheaper and more feasible than the proposed extension of the Millennium Line to UBC.

4 - { NEWS - VANCOUVER PUBLIC SCHOOL CRISIS - DONE }
Photographer: VACANT
Publication Date: Oct. 17
Writer: Ian Turner (ianturner88@gmail.com)
In the last decade, the population boom at UBC has caused the public schools that serve UBC to become overcrowded, creating a crisis situation. The Faculty Association is not pleased with the consequences of the housing developments at UBC, which have increased the population of the area without making proper changes to ensure that there is enough space in the public schools for children to attend.
The following schools need to be shot from the outside. Pretty EASY!
Lord Byng: 3939 West 16th Avenue (take the 25 UBC - its on the left after ~13 mins)
St. George's: 4175 West 29th Avenue (take the 25 from UBC)
University Hill: 2896 Acadia Road
