colophon The Gateway is created using Macintosh computers and HP Scanjet flatbed scanners. Adobe InDesign is used for layout. Adobe Illustrator is used for vector images, while Adobe Photoshop is used for raster images. Adobe Acrobat is used to create PDF files which are burned directly to plates to be mounted on the printing press. Text is set in a variety of sizes, styles, and weights of Fairplex, Utopia, Proxima Nova Extra Condensed, and Tisa. The Manitoban is The Gateway’s sister paper, and we love her dearly, though “not in that way.” The Gateway’s game of choice is covering municipal elections for media outlets other than The Gateway.

As you may have heard, policy changes in Lister may be reducing vandalism cases. WE ASKED...
What’s the craziest Lister story you’ve heard? Omar Khalifa Englineering III “I think a person jumped from the roof onto the ground and nothing happened to him. He had a mattress or something to fall on.”
Hany Awad Science II “I’ve never been in Lister before. But I heard there are a few zombies downstairs. Heard it from an unknown source.”
Shaylene Syrota SCIENCE I “A guy riding up and down the elevators with a horse mask. I don’t know why, it was recently. Nothing too crazy.”
