What is Brig?
Brig was established in 1969, making it Scotland’s second oldest student newspaper. It serves to provide the students and staff of Stirling University with content which is relevant, exciting and informative.
Serving Stirling University students
We print quarterly, with issues printed in September, November, January and March. Our September issue is dedicated to our Freshers’ Week, and is our biggest print run of the year. We also print for the university’s Refreshers’ Week in January. Brig prints 1000 copies each issue, but our papers remain in circulation for some time after initial release, meaning our audience grows throughout the lifespan of each issue. We also post our newspaper online on Issu, with our website receiving over 56,000 views last year, and figures look promising for another record-breaking year in 2017. Tel: 01786 467166
