  Bournemouth University
University Radio Station:
Nerve Radio

The University radio station used to run for two months per year on an FM licence, as is mostly the case with student radio stations. Searching for a more permanent option has been difficult but the station now piggybacks on the TV channel and broadcasts through that when programmes are not showing. It is also available in the union and over the internet. Given that all students union media is linked now the whole package is pretty attractive to sponsors and indeed students looking to bolster their CVs. Run by students, the station plays mostly modern and popular tunes and has attracted quite a following.

 
Campus Publications:
Nerve Magazine

This is a fortnightly magazine that has a mainly news rather than political agenda. It's full of what's going on in and around campus and includes listings for the campus TV station. On the whole it is not a great newspaper, but it's a good attempt.

Student Press

This newspaper is not part of Bournemouth Students' Union, but has a high student readership. Despite its very left wing approach to things, it does have some very interesting articles (most noteably the travel section), and reguarly features a student page three girl (though not topless!).

Nerve TV

The campus TV channel is an award-showered affair. It is used for much the same purpose as the other Nerve media outlets, a platform for involvement, experience and expression and and is open to advertising. Given that Bournemouth has one of the best media schools in the country, it might well be worth watching for future stars!
