The Stand
For students, by students 

Last semester, the University of St Andrews Student Union entered into a partnership with JD Wetherspoons due to financial difficulties. On Friday 4th September 2026, The Red Gown opened its doors to the public for the first time, taking over the space formerly occupied by Main Bar. However, the newly opened establishment is already facing complaints of long wait times and overcrowding, leaving many students feeling unsatisfied. Credit: The Sun Glasgow Third Year student Eva
