It is with great excitement that I welcome the relaunch of Over the Edge, a vital voice of UNBC’s student community. For years, OTE has provided a platform for students to express their ideas, share their stories, and engage in meaningful dialogue. I commend Bruce, Ahmad, Lina, Nahid, Abdullah, and the entire team for their dedication and vision in revitalizing this important publication. As we enter this new era for OTE, I look forward to seeing the creativity, passion, and fresh perspectives that will undoubtedly inspire both our campus and the broader Prince George community. This aligns with UNBC’s mission to Ignite, Inspire, and Lead Change, as OTE continues to serve as a dynamic force for expression and leadership.
With the return to physical newsprint, a new partnership with Prince George’s Citizen, and a renewed digital presence, OTE is positioned to reach new heights. This publication will not only enhance student life at UNBC but also strengthen connections between our university and the wider community. I encourage all students to contribute their voices and engage with Over the Edge as we embark on this exciting journey together. Congratulations to the entire OTE team on this milestone, and best wishes for your continued success.
