Welcome (or welcome back) to Fanshawe. I'm sure you've had a chance to check out Fanshawe College's website, but have you visited the Fanshawe Student Union's website as well? Now I don't want to say that the FSU's website is better than Fanshawe's, so I'll just say that Fanshawe's website isn't as good as the FSU's. Judge for yourself by visiting www.fsu.ca This week we'll take a look at two of the most popular features of the FSU's website. Our Event Calendar which gives you the lowdown on all the biggest shindigs here at Fanshawe, plus a look at our first online contest of the year, which is a huge one.

Contests
There is usually at least one contest running all the time between September and May on www.fsu.ca, with great prizes like JLC concert tickets, gift certificates and trips to major sports events including NFL and NHL games. We're starting off the year with a biggie — you can win tickets to see either Feist or Carrie Underwood at the JLC, or a $400 Fanshawe meal plan card. Do you know how many chicken fingers at the Out Back Shack you can buy for $400? No really, that wasn't a rhetorical question, do you know how many? If you like to boogie, or you just like to eat, you've got to fill out a ballot.

To enter the contest draw, head over to www.fsu.ca/contest anytime before September 29 at noon. You must be a full-time Fanshawe student to enter.
