The Miscellany News

Joined / Vassar College

The Miscellany News, one of the oldest collegiate weeklies in the country, has been the student newspaper of Vassar College since 1866. A two-time winner of the coveted Pacemaker Award given by the Columbia University School of Journalism, the Miscellany strives for thorough reporting, creative thinking, exemplary writing and the highest levels of journalistic excellence. The paper is distributed every Thursday morning during Vassar's academic year to locations across the College's campus, including dormitories, dining and athletic facilities, communal areas, as well as off-campus locations in the Town Of Poughkeepsie. The paper welcomes contributions from all members of the College community—students, administrators, faculty, staff, alumnae/i and trustees—and has a regular staff of roughly 40 to 50 dedicated student editors, reporters, photojournalists, multimedia correspondents and designers. In addition to its print publication, the staff also publishes articles, videos, photoessays and podcasts daily on its Web site and its five blogs.
