Over The Edge is part of the Canadian University Press
network of papers, otherwise known as CUP. CUP is an
organization that is entirely owned by member papers,
and provides such services as advertising and a
newswire.

Over The Edge is the official publishing media of stu-
dents at the University of Northern British Columbia. As
such we are required to report on issues of interest to
students in the Northern Region. We can be reached by
several methods as outlined below and encourage all
students, both those on the main campus and regional
campuses, to take part in Over The Edge.
