History

Balcony Square, was formed in 1969. Following an editorial that critiqued candidates for the upcoming Scarborough Campus Student Council (now Scarborough Campus Student Union) elections, the SCSC, in a closed meeting, made a decision to stop funding the Balcony Square. On March 9, 1982, The Underground was born – in a basement – published with the assistance of other student publications, students and the Canadian University Press.

Masthead

The Underground's masthead is divided into four sections: Section Editors, Creative, Online and Operational. is divided into six sections: Arts & Life, News, Science & Tech, Opinion, Feature and Sports & Wellness. Outside of the Opinion section, headed by the editor-in-chief, and the Feature section, penned by the assigned section editor, each section has its own editor that manages a team of contributors as well as the section's content.
