The Gateway periodically adjusts its circulation between 7,000 to 10,000 printed copies based on market fluctuations and other determining factors.
colophon The Gateway is created using Macintosh computers and HP Scanjet flatbed scanners. 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. Text is set in a variety of sizes, styles, and weights of Fairplex, Utopia, Proxima Nova Extra Condensed, and Tisa. The Manitoban is The Gateway’s sister paper, and we love her dearly, though “not in that way.” The Gateway’s game of choice is Seek the Record!
As you may have heard, Seek the Record is this week! WE ASKED...
What’s the best hiding spot on campus? Jennifer Buss AlES III “The big science building, like downstairs.”
Austin Penner Graduate studies II “Probably the South Academic Building… Anywhere in there. People don’t go in there very often.”
Hidde Vanderkamp phys ed I “Earth Sciences Building, I’d say. It’s not a common place, there’s no food court, nothing too social there, so I think probably the top floor in there somewhere.”
Catherine Deschenes SCience III “I’d say one of my favourite spots is the upper floors of Rutherford Library, because there’s a lot of old, creepy corners and couches, and you could die in there.”
