Other Student Media At UNSW
Tharunka is one of a number of periodicals that have emerged from the university.
- Blitz is a weekly, 24 page full-colour campus events guide that evolved from newsletters circulated by the University of New South Wales Union in the 1970s. The name "Blitz" was adopted in mid-1988. In mid-1994, the Union introduced more editorial material to Blitz, hiring former Tharunka editor Alf Conlon to expand the range of content. In 2010, Blitz remains a "What's On" guide with content steered towards providing coverage to on-campus news and events, and also as a conduit of communication for the Student Representative Council. Blitz and Tharunka are now both published by Arc.
- Students at the university's College of Fine Arts produced regular zines under the titles Xerox Positive, and since 2005, Zing Tycoon' with 'COFAtopia' now launched, which retains the A5 format, "zine" feel.
- Tharunka contributors were instrumental in the establishment of The Student Leader in 2004.
