    really?? i never got a good look at it to be honest. why is it so bad? is the writing bad or just the articles

    Its an improvement to last years but not much news in it. Mostly pictures and advertisements. They are taking people to write if your interested, they have a Club/Soc. Not run by the Students Union any more I think.

    One of the local press used to do a WIT Column for a chap on work experience so you could try them?

    But yeah meeting next monday at 5 in the Dome and apparently a paper... uh paper, not a glossy mag anymore

    Broadsheets are going out of fashion I think. Students tend to go with tabloid style paper anyway. They first need to get decent content and move away from the poor design taste they have been using to date. I might head over to the meeting to hear what they are proposing.

    Guys PI is that way ---->

    For a college that offers a graphic design course that has a photography module, Campus Times is one uglyass piece of **** with such a low quality of 'journalism' and writing!

    I'm surprised it's still going, tbh!
