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 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 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.
