rdf:langString Wessex Scene is a student news magazine and website serving the students of the University of Southampton. Having been in print continuously since 1936, it is one of the oldest student publications in the United Kingdom. Wessex Scene now takes the forms of an online news site and a monthly printed magazine, published by the University of Southampton Students' Union and available across the campuses and Halls of Residence of the university. The website and online edition were nominated for best website at the Guardian Student Media Awards for three years in a row before winning the award in 2004. Since its establishment in 2013, Wessex Scene has been nominated for dozens of Student Publication Association awards, and was highly commended for "Best Designed magazine" in 2015.
