How about those Warriors?

Saturday's game will be played at University Stadium on Seagram Drive, starting at 1 p.m. "All people must pay for playoffs," says UW athletics director Judy McCrae -- that is, season tickets aren't valid for playoff games. Tickets for Saturday's game are on sale starting today, from 8:30 to 4:30 at the stadium and at the athletics department office in the Physical Activities Complex. Price: $7, students $5, children and seniors free.

Can't get to the game? Rogers Cable television says the play-by-play coverage will be aired on its "community" channel at 8 p.m. Saturday.

Savings bonds for sale

Says the memo (available in full on payroll's Web pages through UWinfo):

The Payroll Savings Plan provides a convenient way to save through regular installments deducted from each pay. The money put aside is used to purchase Compound Interest Canada Savings Bonds, which earn interest on interest and are cashable at any time after the bonds are fully paid for. . . .

CSB applications will be sent out to all that have purchased bonds through payroll deduction in the last year. Anyone else wishing to purchase bonds through payroll deduction can call extension 3103 to have an application sent out.

A world of work tomorrow

Does the thought of exploring new cultures, making new friends, eating new foods, gaining a greater understanding of the world or improving your language skills interest you? Then come and attend the International Work Abroad Forum on October 31, hosted by Career Services in the Student Life Centre. . . .

Working and living abroad is an exceptional way to be truly immersed in the culture of another country and can be a rewarding and fulfilling experience. It is an opportunity to promote international cooperation, gain understanding, acquire knowledge and develop skills for living in a globally and multiculturally diverse world.

The International Work Abroad Forum will be held in the Student Life Centre, multipurpose room, from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. on October 31. Panelists from corporate and non-profit organizations will be presenting international opportunities, the type of work, qualifications and any costs involved. In addition, students who have worked abroad in Europe, Asia, South America and Africa will be sharing their experiences. After the presentations, students attending the forum will have a chance to ask additional questions and network with the panelists.

And tomorrow is Hallowe'en
