The Organization 

The Campus Observer is an online newspaper that is dedicated to serving the NUS student community. First published on Aug 14, 2006 at the beginning of the 2006/2007 academic session, this website is updated on weekly in the first 10 weeks of the academic semester. We update on an ad hoc basis in the last two weeks of the semester and cease operation during the reading week and extended university vacations.

The Campus Observer aims to articulate a mature voice that emphasizes accuracy and fairness. While we do not claim to represent the student body, we are committed to the expression of diverse viewpoints, to being a top source for in-depth and comprehensive news and features, and a rewarding co-curricular activity for our staff members.
