About Live!
Live! is the award-winning student news website of Imperial College London. The primary content on Live! is news from Imperial and its students' union, Imperial College Union. Wider higher education issues are also covered where relevant to the audience, along with a mix of Opinion pieces and a Culture section dedicated to previews and reviews of Imperial's arts-related events.
A key part of the site is its entertaining, informative and at times explosive discussion feature.
Audience
The core audience for Live! is the officers of Imperial College Union, usually highly skilled individuals closely involved with the operation of an organisation with a turnover of around £5m. As a group they manage and co-ordinate around 280 clubs catering for thousands of students.
Imperial College staff and alumni also frequent the site - many graduates over the past 6 years remain readers, if not active contributors.
