Assorted College Newspapers

Harvard Crimson, Harvard University, 1873-current

Full text searching, but text-only retrieval, rather than original images.

 

 

The Silent Worker

A college newspaper of sorts, this national publication, now housed at Galludet University, is an archive of a newspaper for the deaf (originally called The Deaf MuteTimes) , written by deaf authors.  Covers 1888-1929.

 

 

Lancaster County Newspaper Archives

Lancaster County, PA has put several newspapers online, including the Franklin and Marshall College Reporter, from 1915-2001.

 

 

Purdue Exponent, Purdue University (Indiana)

A small but useful archive, covering 2000-2006

 

 

University of Massachusetts at Boston, 1966-2007

Includes Mass Media, and UMB News.

 

 

Coe College Cosmos, 1890-1977 (Iowa).

 

 

The Barnard Bulletin, 1901-2002, Barnard College in New York City.

 

 

NewspaperArchive.com

Even with all the free resources available, I still find newspaperarchive.com to be the most valuable resource available for researching history.  I've been a subscriber for years.  Take a look:   NewspaperArchive.com 

 

 
 

 

 

 

Minnesota Daily

University of Minnestoa college newspaper.  Full images available, but no text searching.  1900-1999

 

 

Wisconsin literary magazine

A student publication from the University of Wisconsin.  Oddly, individual issues can be searched, but not the collection as a whole.  Covers 1906-1928.

 

 

University of Georgia Red and Black student Newspaper archives, 1893-1979. (special viewer needed to see page images). Also from U. Georgia, a few issues of the satirical student newspaper, The Bumble Bee, from 1889-1902 

 

 

University of British Columbia (Canada) Ubyssey Student newspaper, 1916-current

 

 

The Collegiate Chronicle at the University of Illinois is an interesting resource that contains archives for a number of college newspapers including:   American University Eagle (1925-1996), Franklin and Marshall College Reporter (1964-1987), Georgetown Hoya (1959-1980), Lincoln University Lincolnian and Lincoln News (1925-2003), Gettysburg College Gettysburgian (1897-2004), University of Illinois Daily Illini (1916-1945), and others. 

 

 

 

 

 



 Yale Daily News 1878-?  Searchable, but poorly described, and an unfriendly interface.  Only a few years seems to have been digitized thus far.  C'mon Yale...you can do better!



 Montclairion -- Montclair State College, NJ student newspaper 1962-2001


 
The Griffin, Canisius College (Jesuit College in Buffalo, NY).  Archives appear to run from 1933 to the 1950's.


 East Los Angeles College Campus News (1945-1999)

 

New  Student Newspapers of the College of Saint Benedict and Saint John's University (Minnesota), 1888-currentThe papers went by several names, including The Record, The Torch, Vitae, and The Saints.  Note, the site includes a link to Spoof/Parody issues...would be nice to see more archives do this. 

 


One of the best archives available is the aptly-named NewspaperArchive.com.  This is a subscription service, but well worth it.  I use them constantly in my research, and recommend them highly.   You'll find plenty of old college antics in their deep databases. 

 

But wait...there's still more!
