The Other Press is Douglas College's autonomous student newspaper. We've been publishing since 1976. The OP is published weekly during the fall and winter semesters and monthly [as a magazine] during the summer. We receive our funding from a student levy collected every semester at registration, and from local and national advertising revenue. The Other Press is a member of the Canadian University Press (CUP), a cooperative of student newspapers from across Canada. We, generally speaking, adhere to CUP’s Statement of Common Principles and Code of Ethics. The Other Press reserves the right to choose what to pub- lish, and what not to publish, but usually we print everything, unless itis racist, sexist or homophobic. If you have any quibbles with what we choose, maybe you should get your lazy butt down here and help.
