Student Media

Our four media channels provide the student body with a one-stop information point for student life in Cardiff, giving comprehensive news coverage, igniting debate and discussion, and capturing the essence of student lifestyle in the city. Dedicated teams of students produce a weekly newspaper, gair rhydd, forthnightly lifestyle magazine, Quench, radio station, Xpress and TV station, CUTV, and are co-ordinated by the Head of Student Media, Chris Williams.

Student media is always on the look-out for new recruits, so if you'd like to get involved, why not go along to their first meeting at 5pm on October 1st in Solus? There's no typical member - those involved are from a very diverse range of backgrounds, studying everything from physics to philosophy, and as long as you've got passion and enthusiasm, you'll be welcomed aboard.

By becoming part of student media, you'll not only make friends and have a great time; you'll also learn lots of hugely valuable communications skills, including writing, editing and presenting, all of which are key to a lot of careers in today's job's market. 

You can join Student Media at any point throughout the year. The next media meeting is Monday 15th April in the Gair Rhydd Office and every week until and including 13th May.
