Today is a momentous day for us, and potentially for you too. Not only because it marks the end of summer and the beginning of Autumn, but because this publication, for the first time ever, is opening up the exciting positions of Co-Editors in Chief to you.

We have undergone immense evolution in our short history in becoming a leading news and journalistic output for the students of St Andrews. Not only are we unparalleled in our publication’s creativity but also in our ability to network and contribute to national journalism through the nationwide student media network, The Tab.

Leading the direction of The Stand is a large responsibility and one that will present many challenges. If you have passion and an ambition to manage, contribute and serve this publication to fulfil its potential… do it. We are a nest for witty and original journalism – take the plunge and apply to become our new Co Editor in Chief.

All you need to do is answer a few questions (listed below) and send us a CV to [email protected] by  September 5th if you wish to take the reigns as Chief.
