About

About the Record:

Welcome to The Record, we are all about news that is totally groovy! We publish articles that range from reviews to opinion pieces about anything and everything. We feature a lot of music articles as we are a branch of St Andrew’s Radio but we are not limited to a single topic.

The Record is a space for people to write about their passions and interests, if you care about it we deem it newsworthy and we think our readers agree! So, whether you are new to writing or an experience champ why not try out writing for the coolest online magazine St Andrews has to offer (I am just going to claim that).

We take on writers throughout the year, so sign up on our website and check out our instagram @therecordsta

About the Editor:

I’m Lauren (she/her) and I am editor for the Record for 2024-5! I love cooking and funky jazz and am an English student who has to be forcibly removed from Toppings when I enter it. I enjoy writing opinion posts as well as recipes, and reviews. I hope to make the Record a space for people with any experience to write and publish whatever they choose, from creative writing to art submissions, this is a site for everyone to get their work out there.

I hope you enjoy looking around our website and making the space yours – for the record we think it’s pretty fab.

About the Assistant Editor:

I’m Robin (she/her) and I’m so excited to be joining The Record as Assistant Editor! OMG who let two fourth-year English students be in charge of this? Approach with caution and do not ask us about our dissertations. At St Andrews I use my English and IR degree to craft my own research agenda focusing on the role of storytelling in politics and wider society, which leads me to do silly things like propose essays which compare revolutionary organisation in 1980s Romania to The Hunger Games. I am so excited to be a part of The Record and can’t wait to read your submissions!
