The Gaudie is a student newspaper at the University of Aberdeen covering campus and local news. It is the oldest independent student newspaper in Scotland according to The Guardian, being in circulation since 1934. It is available free of charge across the Old Aberdeen and Foresterhill campuses. It aims to print unbiased, student-focused articles.
The Gaudie is partially funded by Aberdeen University Students' Association, and partially by its own advertising revenue. It currently consists of 24 pages split into News, Features, Science and Environment, Opine, International, Puzzles, Satire, Life and Style, Arts, and Sports.
As the transition from print to digital media has increased in recent years, The Gaudie has invested significant development in its online presence, with nearly 24,000 visitors from over 70 countries in the last year.
The Gaudie continues to release fortnightly print editions, which consist of 400 papers distributed across campus.
All UoA students are invited to submit articles for the various sections.
