The New Brunswick/Piscataway campuses are served by an independently incorporated daily newspaper, the Daily Targum. Founded in 1866 as a yearbook, it has been published as a newspaper since 1869 and is the oldest undergraduate newspaper in the country. The Daily Targum prints news of the university and includes local, national, and international items considered of special relevance to students.
The wide ranging interests and perspectives of Rutgers students are explored through a rich variety of publications including weekly newspapers, quarterly journals, yearbooks, and literary magazines. These publications are led by student-run editorial boards. They provide important opportunities for student learning through editorial and managerial leadership positions and through exploration of key themes of civic responsibility and aesthetic merit.
