About

The Gateway is the official student newspaper at the University of Alberta. It is published most Tuesdays and Thursdays during the academic year (with six issues during the spring/summer term) by the Gateway Student Journalism Society (GSJS), a student-run, autonomous, apolitical not-for-profit organization, operated in accordance with the Societies Act of Alberta.

The Gateway's primary objectives are:

• To sponsor advancement of education of University of Alberta students through the various practices of journalism and the publication of the Gateway.
• To provide a fair, reliable, and clear source of information, focused mainly, but not exclusively, on issues which directly affect students, whether they are local, national, or international.

The Gateway collects a $3.09 levy per student each Fall and Winter term (with a $0.39 levy for students in the Spring/Summer terms), in accordance with Students' Union Bylaw 3000 Schedule 1.

The Gateway is proud to be a founding member of the Canadian University Press.

Our offices are located in Suite 3-04 of the Students' Union Building on the University of Alberta campus. For more contact information, please click here.

Colophon
The Gateway is created using Macintosh computers, HP Scanjet flatbed scanners, and a Nikon Super Cool Scan optical film scanner. Adobe InDesign is used for layout. Adobe Illustrator is used for vector images, while Adobe Photoshop is used for raster images. Adobe Acrobat is used to create PDF files which are burned directly to plates to be mounted on the printing press at Central Web in Edmonton. The Gateway Online is powered by the Drupal content management system, the Apache web server running on FreeBSD, and designed using Coda. The Manitoban is the Gateway’s sister paper, and we love her dearly, though “not in that way.”
