Competition
Unlike the majority of UK student newspapers, London Student competes with other student-led publications for a readership. The newspapers and magazines of the constituent colleges of the University of London complement the newspaper's coverage of events. Although the college magazines, such as University College London's Pi, King's College London's Roar and Queen Mary, University of London's Cub, generally offer a different style of coverage to London Student, there is genuine competition in terms of breaking news from five college newspapers: Felix at Imperial College London, The Beaver at the London School of Economics, The Lion at Heythrop College and The Orbital & The Founder at Royal Holloway, University of London. Editions of the commercial The Sanctuary newspaper added marginally to competition at University College London and the London School of Economics during the academic year 2007-8.
