Abstract
Continued access to sufficient high-quality equipment is critical to our continued ability to create opportunities for students who want to participate in student-run media. We used to be all about the printed newspaper. Now we produce a newspaper in print and on-line, and share photos, videos, articles and other content on a multitude of platforms: our own Snapchat channel, Instagram, Twitter, website, podcasts and streaming audio content, YouTube, and Facebook, among others. As our reach expands, more students find our work interesting and want to be part of it. We also consistently publish information about people and groups on campus that get very little recognition beyond their core groups. These range from under-represented minorities, to non-revenue generating sports.
