โ€“Carol Kego, co-ordinator for Laurierโ€™s Interior Design & Renovation department, speaking about what students need from the design on their university.

โ€“2008-09 Charity Ball sponsorship executive Brieanna Harburn, on expressing her concerns about overspending for the annual event.

โ€“WLUSU president Laura Sheridan responding to the difficulties of getting a copy of the studentsโ€™ union 2008-09 budget.

โ€œIโ€™m like Batman and Bruce Wayne.โ€
