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 semester at registration, and

OrthérPress.
