Welcome to Exeposé Online

Here at Exeposé, we go to great lengths to ensure that we can represent the student body as well as we can.

Every fortnight, our editors will e-mail ‘content calls’ to our members, offering ideas for articles and inviting our writers to pitch suggestions. At the start of the year, before exams and essay deadlines kick in, we get an incredibly large amount of content sent by our writers and a comparatively tiny amount of space to print all of them in the newspaper.

Often, as much as it pains us, articles that we don’t have space for, but are worthy of print, won’t fit into the newspaper. This can lead to a negative perception from some that Exeposé is produced by a small band of students not entirely representative of the student body. In the few cases where this is true, this is not our intention.

Exeposé can only be as good as we want it to be if we have a large number of contributors, and it’s often difficult to sustain our large amount of writers across the year with the print edition alone.

So this summer we’ve been working with a whole new team of online editors to get Exeposé’s website up and running. Replacing the now-defunct X-Media Online, the website provides you with even more ways to get your voice heard. Full credit must be given to Craig Browne and Ellie Swingewood, Exeposé’s new Site Managers, and Luke Appleton the web designer, who have worked tirelessly on the website over the summer and will run the online operation for the next year. You can e-mail them at sitemanagers@exepose.com.

While we’re eager to have our website reflect the content of Exeposé’s print edition, we hope the website will become a different beast entirely. Head over to the website for rolling news coverage, surveys, polls and extra interactive content. Over the next year, Exeposé’s online arm will expand and develop, offering our readers and writers more opportunities to contribute and interact with the paper. It’s certainly a very exciting time for student media in Exeter.

A big welcome to our new online editors, and here’s to the next year!
