  • Condé Nast History
    Condé Nast History Condé Nast publishes 128 magazines and maintains and develops over 100 websites across 25 markets. Condé Nast is part of Advance Publications, Inc., one of the largest privately owned media and communications companies in the world. Below is a brief history of Condé Nast. 1. The beginning of Condé Nast The founder of Condé Nast Publications, Condé Montrose Nast (hereafter referred to as Nast), was born in New York City in 1873. Nast graduated from Georgetown University and later went on to earn a law degree from Washington University in St. Louis. Despite his legal education, Nast took a job in publishing, as the advertising manager for an American magazine, Collier's Weekly. He not only increased advertising revenue significantly, expanding into regional advertising and introducing double- page spreads and full-colour front and back covers, but also pioneered an edition with editorial devoted to a single topic. Among his other publishing interests, Nast was Vice President of the Home Pattern Company, a manufacturer and distributer of women’s dress patterns. Here, he became knowledgeable about women’s fashion and women’s magazines, and subsequently in 1909 went on to purchase Vogue. Founded in the US in 1892, by Arthur Baldwin Turnure, Vogue was a weekly society magazine, which recorded social events and offered guidance on etiquette, including advice on what to wear for such occasions. Nast transformed the publication into a bimonthly women’s fashion magazine. Commercially, Nast recognised the value of Vogue readers as an influential and affluent audience and pursued high-end advertisers willing to pay extra to reach them.

Photograph taken by Stephen Bond. 1 fromthelodge Challenging the status quo is part of Newnham’s identity, and I felt it was important to take action to address something which continues to plague all universities – sexual harassment. The Universities UK Taskforce examining violence against women, harassment and hate crime affecting university students has issued the following findings from national surveys: 68% of respondents had been subjected to verbal or physical sexual harassment on campus and 14% had experienced a serious physical or sexual assault (NUS 2010). A poll of new students found that 17% of respondents had experienced sexual harassment during their first week and 29% had witnessed sexual harassment directed at someone else (NUS 2005). Also 54% of 18 to 24 year-old female students experienced sexual harassment on nights out, half of them every time they go out (Drinkaware 2016). The Cambridge Student Union report Cambridge Speaks Out (2014) found that 75% of those who experienced stalking or harassment knew the perpetrator (acquaintance/friend/partner/ex-partner) as did 61% of women who experienced physical violence.
