The Other Press

A nose for news —
tor whiskey

The city room knows him no more.

He has passed on to some private and personal
nirvana of his own, where every typewriter has all
its keys and a bottle waits at every four-alarm fire.

He was a good employee. Accepted assign-
ments, went out and got what the editor was
looking for. No questions asked.

When you think about it, it’s a good thing the
city room knows him no more. That kind of
reporting, the kind that is still found in today’s
commercial newspapers, is archaic. Lazy, un-
thinking, unquestioning.

The Other Press doesn’t believe in lazy report-
ing or unthinking journalism. We believe in a
thinking, breathing, dynamic student press. The
student staff works to provide students at Doug-
las College with the best possible newspaper. We
think we do a pretty good job. We know we can
do better.

 

We’re always looking for recruits and are wil-
ling to train interested students. So if you’d like to
do news reporting, reviews, features, photos, car-
toons, layout design, or just about anything you’d
like, c’mon in and ask us about you.

And since The Other Press is democratically-
run, no one person gives out all the orders. And
no one gets stuck with all the shit work. And no
one has to put up with discrimination or
harassment.

The Other Press is a joint effort (in more ways
than one), so you'll be part of the frustrations as
well as the victories, the responsibilities as well as
the parties. You'll know your college like few
others. And in between the parties, you might
pick up a skill or two.

 

Drop by our New Westminster office, behind the
juice machine in the caf. Or call us at 525-3542.
