Woroni is the student newspaper of the Australian National University, based in Canberra, ACT, Australia. The newspaper was first published in 1948. ‘Woroni’ is an Australian Aboriginal word meaning ‘mouthpiece’.

Woroni is published fortnightly as a full colour tabloid-size newspaper and features broad coverage of local news, sports, arts, culture, politics, opinion, science, music, film, books, careers and leisure.

Internet Publications

A new website (http://www.woroni.com.au) was launched on 28 May 2008.

The website reproduces the hardcopy edition in digital format, with past hardcopy editions available for download.

Production

Woroni is published by the ANU Students’ Association, and is produced by an elected Editor or small team of Editors who serve for a period of one year. Usually the elected Editor then appoints their own team of Sub-Editors and Staff Writers.

Format

Traditionally Woroni was printed in a tabloid format, and it was published fortnightly. In the mid 1990s the newspaper was published monthly. In 2004 Woroni took on a magazine-style format, which consisted of 48 pages and was issued four times per semester. In 2007, Woroni began to be published electronically as well as in print, with an online edition being released on the woroni website. A return to fortnightly publication and tabloid newspaper format occurred in 2008.

Content

The content of the newspaper is directed by the Editor, and hence changes from year to year. It usually contains: letters, campus news, opinion pieces, features, entertainment reviews, satire, and reports from the ANU Students' Association elected officeholders. In 2005, issues centred around a theme, which proved to be a successful method of encouraging new contributors.

Awards
