Scotcampus was an independent student magazine in Scotland. The paper was put together using a combination of freelance journalists and student writers from across Scotland. It was distributed throughout various locations in all of Scotland's major towns and cities. The last issue was in 2016.[1]

Background

[edit]

Scotcampus was founded by Graeme Barratt and Anna Purdie, who launched it in 2001. The magazine operated as a lifestyle publication, using approachable and inspiring journalism to reach student readers across all campuses in Scotland.[2] In October 2012 Jennifer Lynn was named as the editor of Scotcampus.[3] The magazine is published on a bimonthly basis.[3]

Since its founding, Scotcampus interviewed numerous high-profile musicians, politicians, actors, directors, and people of interest. Some of the most notable included: The Prodigy, Dizzee Rascal, Alex Salmond, Michelle Mone, Alastair Campbell, Armando Iannucci, Howard Marks, and Sir Tom Hunter.

Freshers' Festival

[edit]

Since 2007, Scotcampus hosted a Student Freshers' Festival that was open to all university and college students aged 16 and over, and took place in Glasgow annually.[4][5][6] The Freshers' Festival attracted more than 10,000 students and young people from across Scotland by offering up a selection of bands, DJ's, free gifts and contact with local organisations, job opportunities and internships.[6][7] Some of the onstage performances at previous festivals included fashion shows, dancers, rap battles, cheerleaders, and yoga classes.[8] Food exhibitors offered the students discounts and even free food and drinks.[8] Previous exhibitors at the Festival have been wide-ranging and have included Urban Outfitters, Royal Air Force, Domino's Pizza, Ernst & Young, Papa John's and YO! Sushi.[4][9][8] In 2010, the Freshers' Festivals expanded into Edinburgh. Both events were powered with renewable energy.[10]
