This new annual thread has been carved out of the previous thread in an effort to reduce the number of megathreads on the AC forum. For those interested previous versions are the original 2004 - 2014 thread , 2015 edition, 2016 edition and 2017 edition
The original thread started by accident but quickly became a popular place to come and discuss off topic things such as hockey, new movies, or almost anything that wouldn't fit into existing AC forum threads. More Air Canada or Aeroplan topics such as flight feedback, in-flight services issues or mileage earning/redemption are all topics that should go into existing AC forum threads so others can benefit from this information. Topics about hotels or airlines and/or their loyalty programs should be posted elsewhere on FT as should topics better suited to other forums such as Travel Products for questions about luggage or Travel Photography for discussion about cameras.
While the conversation is more relaxed as it would be in a lounge that doesn't mean however that the FT rules don't apply here as they definitely do so please refrain from controversial topics such as politics or religion, avoid profanities and treat other lounge patrons with the same respect you expect.

Most big corps already completed their recruiting during the Fall (Mid-November ish), but there might be a few slipping through the cracks that will come online about now

LOL OMG
The guy who taught that course to my class (I'm hesitant to call him anything more formal than "the guy") was hilarious. Not in a good way. In a "I could really use some formal training on how to present things to large groups" kind of way.

Scroll down to "16 Professors"
Given that all you remember is "that guy", none of them might not ring a bell.

None of the names on that site match mine. I suspect I have exam copies lying around in Toronto (?) that would have his name.
I took it in Spring 2007 if that helps ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

It's difficult to come by good professors. Many of mine were more focused on research.

Oops, I did it again!
A few jager bombs, several rounds of dice, more Tito's than I care to admit, flights to YVR, CUN, RWS and a combination of fixed and market rewards in Y and J resulted in 428k AP points gone!
The only take-away I have from tonight is that bringing a laptop to the bar is a bad idea.
