The Gryphon

The Gryphon Newspaper is Leeds University Union’s official student publication. One of the oldest societies on campus, we began our journey in 1897, and we are now regarded as one of the most successful student newspapers in the country. The likes of Daily Mail editor Paul Dacre, Observer food critic Jay Rayner, Guardian deputy national editor Polly Curtis and BBC Royal Correspondent Nicholas Witchell have passed through our office doors, and our latest editors have gone on to write for The Mirror, The Times and The Evening Standard. https://twitter.com/TheGryphonLeeds Awards: 2017: Winner, NSA Best Media Society 2009: Winner, Guardian Student Newspaper of the Year (LS2) Shortlisted, Guardian Student Magazine of the Year 2006: Shortlisted, NUS/Press Association Training Student Newspaper of the Year 2004: Runner-up, Guardian Student Newspaper of the Year, Runner-up, Daily Mirror/NUS Student Newspaper of the Year 2003: Shortlisted, Guardian Student Newspaper of the Year; Runner-up, Daily Mirror/NUS Student Newspaper of the Year 2002: Winner, Independent/NUS Student Newspaper of the Year; Shortlisted, Guardian Student Newspaper of the Year 2001: Shortlisted, Guardian Student Newspaper of the Year Shortlisted, Guardian Student Newspaper of the Year; Shortlisted, Independent/NUS Student Newspaper of the Year Winner, Guardian Student Newspaper of the Year; Winner, Independent/NUS Student Newspaper of the Year 1998: Runner-up, Guardian/NUS Student Newspaper of the Year 1997: Runner-up, Guardian/NUS Student Newspaper of the Year 1996: Winner, Guardian/NUS Student Newspaper of the Year 1995: Runner-up, Guardian/NUS Student Newspaper of the Year 1993: Runner-up, Guardian/NUS Student Newspaper of the Year 1977: Winner, Best Feature in the Daily Express Student Newspaper Awards 1972: Winner, Student Newspaper of the Year 1970: Winner, Student Newspaper of the Year
