Student Newspapers (UA 2010.03)

Historical note

There has been a student newspaper on campus since the college's early days as The YMCA Institute. Unfortunately no copies of The Triangle, as it was called then, are available. The Quill was first issued in December 1961, as a monthly student newspaper published by the students of and for the students and administrators of Roger Williams Junior College. The Messenger and The Hawk's Eye followed. Since 2004, the student newspaper has gone by the name The Hawk's Herald, publishing weekly during the academic year, except during examination periods and term breaks. It covers news, sports, and entertainment.
