The Navigator is Vancouver Island University’s (formerly Malaspina University–College) student press. Founded in 1969 as a newspaper, the Navigator (aka the Nav) recently evolved into a monthly magazine. In 1992, the Nav became an incorporated society under the Society Act of BC.
The magazine is run completely by students—from the business end of selling ads and bookkeeping, to writing, designing, and editing. The Nav strives to provide a venue for students to gain professional experience, and act as an outlet to bring pressing student and community issues to the public eye.
VIU, a unique university located on Vancouver Island, off the West Coast of Canada, overlooks the Strait of Georgia and the Coastal Mountains. The Nanaimo campus is home to the Art and Design Department, a personal and inclusive learning environment featuring small class-sizes with teaching faculty readily available to assist students.
