The Collegian
Encyclopedia : T : TH : THE : The Collegian
The Collegian is the student newspaper of Walla Walla College. It is overseen by ASWWC, and is run by the Editor in Chief. The Editor in Chief was formerly an elected position, but is now appointed by the executive and confirmed by the Senate. The newspaper was founded in 1916, and it is currently published on every Thursday of the academic year. Its mission is to "Report news relevant to the students of Walla Walla College, to discuss issues with the students of WWC, and to entertain the students of WWC in a responsible manner."
Like most college newspapers, the Collegian features news, opinion, and humor. Religion is also a topic explored regularly in its pages. Students from the college are commissioned to write occasional articles, in addition to the regular staff. The Collegian is generally free to report as it sees fit, though if the publication were to include obscene material or foul language, the college, being a private Christian college, could prevent its publication and distribution on-campus. This has happened only in the case of a misunderstanding pertaining to some April Fool's Day issues of the publication.
