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

OtherPress.

from local and national advertising revenue. The Other
Press is a member of the 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. All images used are copyright to
their respective owners.
