Having a bit of experience with shitty campus newspapers, I'd love to hear this.
KvP:
Campus papers are The Worst.
Anyway, Swans megapost keeps getting pushed back due to school and the constant accumulation of more more more music. This is stupid.

This band has yet to release a bad record, so if you're into hardcore or metal and the bands I mentioned, definitely check this one out.

I'd written for the paper for three years - one of my best mates was Music Editor, another mate was full Editor, all was good. We all left Uni, I took a year out, and then went back to Uni to do a postgrad. Went to the initial meeting and the ideas/vision they had were ridiculously stupid - ideas included a weekly feature in the 'Comments' section (which should/could be hard-hitting journalism right?) about which is better, City A or City B?, the two cities being the other side of a river from each other, and our Uni being in City A. This shit EVERY FUCKING WEEK! So I slagged them off on Facebook - well, I only called them douchebags, nothing major - got found out, and then the witch-hunt began. So, so, SOOO many e-mails from the new editor & loads of section editors criticisng me & banning me from EVERY INDIVIDUAL section of the paper. So I said 'meh' and moved on with my life and wrote for other local independent magazines etc., I'm content because most of the student body thinks the paper this year is one of the worst for a good few years - EVERY issue includes some kind of apology for insulting a group of people in the previous issue, and content highlights for what used to be a great, serious paper include a weekly blind date between the poshest, richest, douchiest kids at Uni, one article was called 'Ladies: how to jazz up your vay-jay-jay' (actual headline), and a music section which thinks The Tallest Man on Earth is new on the scene. Shudder.
