History edit

Neucleus was established in April 1947.

Voluntary student unionism edit

The implementation of voluntary student unionism in 2006 had a significant impact on the viability of student newspapers across Australia, compulsory student union membership fees having been the major source of income for most.

Post-VSU return edit

After a period of six years absence, the publication returned in 2013 under the name Nucleus.

New media age edit

As of 2018 the Nucleus has taken a new angle and started publishing digitally with a minimisation of print media. The 2017-18 UNESA Board of Directors in conjunction with a former editor, Nicholas McCann, helped to form this new version of the publication.

Magazine closure edit

Due to budgetary restrictions and a high turn-over of editors, the magazine ceased publishing.[when?]
