| SEPTEMBER 13 |

Here's the current state of the pitch list, again, feel free to get in contact with me, remind me that you exist (I forget sometimes), or make plans. If you're interested in doing graphics, give me a shout! We're looking for people more talented with photoshop/illustrator than myself (not hard to do) who like to challenge themselves with graphic design and illustration.

Also, general staff meetings start tomorrow at noon. TUESDAY'S AT NOON for the rest of the year are when we have these general meetings, you can see the agenda in the Sunday issue. If you would like to become a staff photographer, you need to attend two out of three consecutive meetings. Bonuses for being staff include:

- FREE Stuff (Ubyssey T-shirt, Ubyssey Waterbottle)
- Vote on stuff
- Get a "@ubyssey.ca" email address
- Attend national and regional conferences
- Put the Ubyssey on your resume

So here it goes: Pitch list three.

En Garde!
Photographer: Chris
Get in contact with the fencing club and see if they... can set up a time this week for a photo shoot. lends itself well to good photos.

WEIRD People
Photographer: OPEN
So apparently us WEIRD (Western, Educated, Industrialized, Rich, and Democratic) people here at university are the most studied group out of anyone, and it's skewing the results. Take a plain shot of a shrugging, "Hey, it's not my fault" university student (should be plenty around). Bonus points if you can get a psych textbook into the shot.

Film Soc
Photographer: Nicole
They run the norm, cool stuff. Grab a shot and make it interesting

AMS Council
Photographer: OPEN
Time: Wednesday, 6pm
Tag along to council and see what's up. Snap some candids for the archives and for that moment we REALLY need a picture, like now. It's a challenge to catch councillors with something interesting. Also, find out what's actually going on with the referendum. Did I mention free food?

Belkin Sign "There was and there wasn't a city of Baghdad"
Photographer: Open
Long story short, it's art. Take this one and snap a photo to accompany our more detailed writeup.

The Hungarian Gate
Photographer: Open
Another anecdotal piece from news on why Hungarian Engineers dragged a gate across the world. Make it pretty and run. Fun gig for an easy picture.

The Green Laser (of less than doom)
Photographer: Open
This'll be a tough one. Bring your tripod down past totem and snipe the green laser that appears from nowhere from the back of a truck. A very interesting spectacle at night.

Outdoor Pool, what up with that?
Photographer: Jon Chiang
Why did they cover the pool? It's made for some much less interesting moments as of late. It's not really that interesting a plunge anymore. Take pictures from the 10m (I'll get you up there).

Farm Aid Show
Photographer: Tim
Farm Aid was big when they first hit the scene a few years back. Now, it's a fun outdoor concert put on every year in support of UBC farm. Shoot the concert for review shots.

Wally the Bull
Photographer: Open
The completely autocratic mascot is now roaming the streets of UBC, terrorizing first years with his tyranny. Get a shot of this bull and get it back to me for the wanted... I mean, the paper.

Start your own Sorority!
Photographer: Open
I have no clue. Apparently there's a new sorority on campus. We're getting details, but we need a graphic/photo. Got any ideas?

Olio Music Festival
Photographers: Dave, Jon
Still working on the details, but it's basically a great big festival with great local music. Details coming, really.

Pesticides on campus
Photographer: Open
We have a great lead on pesticide use on campus (a no no around here). Make a photo illustration involving the private housing on campus. Even a simple shot of clear grass could work here.

DJ's at Thunderbird
Photographer: Open
Apparently UBC Athletics is trying to get a monthly DJ'd event at Thunderbird Arena, it's looking like it might go through. Take a shot of the arena with the houses, try and get a sense of the distance and see give the viewer a general sense of things.

Frats and Sororities on Campus
Photographer: Open
Get a photo at a frat party. Easy enough, if there is one. Rushing is happening all week though..
