About Pelican

Pelican is UWA’s editorially independent student magazine. We are one of the oldest student publications in Australia, bringing you the scoop since 1930.

Pelican dedicates itself to publishing a wide range of voices, in keeping with the diverse nature of the UWA student body, editorial independence from the Guild, and working closely with our writers. Pelican is not a club or a community and has no joining or membership fee. Submissions are open at any time to all UWA students.

You can pick up a free copy of Pelican from stands around UWA’s Crawley campus. We publish six themed print copies every year, in tandem with our website.

If you’re interested in writing for us (and we hope you are – you definitely should), have a look at our Write for Pelican page.

2025 Editors: Jack Fairey and Zoe Salmond

The views expressed within are not the views of the UWA Student Guild or the Pelican editorial staff, but the individual writers and artists.

This website was made possible thanks to a generous grant from the UWA Annual Alumni Fund.
