About

The Dalhousie Gazette is the student-run newspaper of Dalhousie University and the oldest, longest-running campus newspaper in North America. The Gazette is an autonomous student newspaper covering events both on Dalhousie University campus and around the Halifax Regional Municipality.

We distribute our newspapers around Dalhousie and the University of King’s College on Thursdays every two weeks. All of the content that gets put in our print newspaper, and more, gets published to dalgazette.com. We’re committed to mentoring and training aspiring writers and journalists while giving people a space to describe and reflect on their own campus. Writers for the Gazette often start with little to no journalistic experience, yet many have gone on to pursue careers in the media. Students interested in contributing do not need to submit a portfolio or a resume; they only need to express their interest in developing their writing skills and pursuing stories.

We want to tell true stories in a way that will resonate with students. We believe that we can engage with our audience through different media: strong writing, beautiful photography, compelling video and bold design.

Journalism isn’t just writing – it’s storytelling.
