UPEI is the only university in the Maritime provinces who has a policy implemented to discourage the sales of energy drinks on campus. As St. FX University students, we believe it is necessary to raise awareness of the negative effects energy drinks has on the body both physically and mentally.

I really never expected this to snowball quite so fast but here we are and honestly it feels like everyone is finally talking about the heart palpitations and the jitters that come with all this caffeine. It is just wild to see this much energy behind the idea because usually people just shrug at these things and carry on with their iced coffees.

STFX should be promoting health not selling poison in the cafe. please stop carrying them.

These things are trash for your heart. Nobody needs this much caffeine just to get through a psych 101 lecture.
