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. Today we are registered society under the
Society Act of British Columbia, governed by a board of directors.

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 semester

at registration, and from local and national advertising revenue. The Other Press is a member of the

2

Canadian University Press (CUP), a syndicate of student newspapers that includes papers from all across

Canada.

The Other Press reserves the right to choose what we will publish, and we will not publish material that
is hateful, obscene, or condones or promotes illegal activities. Submissions may be edited for clarity and

brevity if necessary.
