Gair Rhydd (Welsh: [ˈɡair ˈr̥iːð], meaning "free word"; stylised as "gair rhydd") is the official student newspaper of Cardiff University. It is a fortnightly, free, tabloid-sized paper established in 1972. Its sections cover local news, politics, science, student opinions, entertainment media, campus and Cardiff city life, and sport. It also features a Welsh-language section "Taf-od".
History
Gair Rhydd has won several student media awards, including Newspaper of the Year at the Guardian Student Media Awards 2005.
Past editor Tom Wellingham and two other student journalists were suspended when, on 4 February 2006, they reproduced a controversial cartoon depicting Mohammed. The issue was withdrawn from publication (98% of copies retrieved) within a day of being released, and the Cardiff University Students' Union issued an apology. Cartoons were reinstated as a regular feature in issue #1081 in 2016.
