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.

Famous quotes containing the words university, student and/or publications:
“To get a man soundly saved it is not enough to put on him a pair of new breeches, to give him regular work, or even to give him a University education. These things are all outside a man, and if the inside remains unchanged you have wasted your labour. You must in some way or other graft upon the man’s nature a new nature, which has in it the element of the Divine.”
—William Booth (1829–1912)
“When our kids are young, many of us rush out to buy a cute little baby book to record the meaningful events of our young child’s life...But I’ve often thought there should be a second book, one with room to record the moral milestones of our child’s lives. There might be space to record dates she first shared or showed compassion or befriended a new student or thought of sending Grandma a get-well card or told the truth despite its cost.”
—Fred G. Gosman (20th century)
“Dr. Calder [a Unitarian minister] said of Dr. [Samuel] Johnson on the publications of Boswell and Mrs. Piozzi, that he was like Actaeon, torn to pieces by his own pack.”
—Horace Walpole (1717–1797)
