The Other Press is Douglas College's autonomous student newspaper.

The Other Press is run by a collective and is published weekly during the fall and winter semesters, and monthly (as a magazine) dur- ing the Summer.

We receive our funding from a student levy collected every semester at registration, and from local and national advertising revenue. The Other Press is a member of the Canadian University Press (CUP), a cooperative of stu- dent newspapers from across Canada. We adhere to CUP’s Statement of Common Principles and Code of Ethics—except when it suits us not to. The Other Press reserves the right to choose what to publish, and will not publish material that is racist, sexist, or homophobic. Submissions may be edited for

The weekly deadline for submissions is Wednesday for publication the following Wednesday. Letters to the Editor, vacant sec- tions, and “time-sensitive” articles (weekend news, sports, and cultural reviews) will be accepted until Saturday noon and can be sub- mitted to the editor at othereditor@yahoo.ca

All other submissions should be forward- ed to the appropriate section editor. Please include your name, phone number/email address, and word count, and submit via email as an MS Word.doc attachment to the attention of the appropriate editor.

The Other Press is run by a collective; which means all decisions are reached via a democratic voting process. Membership in the voting collective is open to any person who has contributed to at least two of three consecutive issues. Those interested in join- ing the Other Press collective should contact the editor at othereditor@yahoo.ca
