The Cord Weekly - Wilfrid Laurier University Student Publications

Wilfrid Laurier University Student Publications

Wilfrid Laurier University Student Publications (or WLUSP) is a volunteer-based organization that collects fees from undergraduate students and publishes various media. It became a non-profit corporation in 1970; until then, its functions had been fulfilled under the direction of the Wilfrid Laurier University Students' Union. WLUSP is governed by an elected President and Board of Directors. Volunteers for management-level positions are all hired, but only a few positions, such as The Cord Editor in chief and the WLUSP President, are salaried.

The organization publishes The Cord, the university's newspaper. It also produces: Blueprint Magazine, Wilfrid Laurier's student arts magazine; Keystone, Wilfrid Laurier University's yearbook; The WLU'er, a student planner, The Sputnik, Laurier Brantford's official student newspaper, The Orbiter, Laurier Brantford's student planner and RadioLaurier.com Laurier's campus radio station.
