Honi Soit - Format and Organisation

Format and Organisation

Honi Soit is a tabloid-style publication incorporating a mixture of humorous and serious opinion articles. A typical issue contains a topical feature article and interview, letters to the editor, campus news, pop culture articles and news satire. Periodically, special editions are published, including Election Honi, devoted towards covering the annual Students' Representative Council (SRC) student elections, Women's Honi, and Queer Honi, dedicated to covering LGBT issues. In 2010 and 2011, the last three pages of each issue were presented as part of fictional newspaper 'The Garter,' which parodied numerous sections of The Sydney Morning Herald, including Column 8, and contains satirical and irreverent articles. In 2012, 'The Garter' was discontinued in favour of more integrated satire and comedy.

Issues are published weekly during university semesters. Honi Soit is the only student newspaper in Australia that remains a weekly publication. Its standard book size is 24 pages, but that is sometimes extended to 28 or 32 pages at the discretion of the editors and publisher.

Famous quotes containing the word organisation:

    It is because the body is a machine that education is possible. Education is the formation of habits, a superinducing of an artificial organisation upon the natural organisation of the body.
    Thomas Henry Huxley (1825–1895)
