WHO WE ARE

The Other Press has been Douglas College’s student
newspaper since 1976. Since 1978 we have been

an autonomous publication, independent of the
student union. We are a registered society under

the Society Act of British Columbia, governed by an
eight-person board of directors appointed by and
from our staff. Our head office is located in the New
Westminster campus.

The Other Press is published weekly during
the fall and winter semesters, and monthly during
the summer. We receive our funding from a
student levy collected through tutition fees every

OrthérPress.
