Student Media
The Spectrum is the official student newspaper of Lawrence Academy.
Discontinued in 2007, the Lacademy Sun, a student-run, on-campus newspaper, was founded following concerns in 2004 that students were afforded few avenues through which to express concerns. The initial goal of the Lacademy Sun's editorial board was to provide students an open venue in which to discuss school policies; the paper's editorial policy remained laissez-faire through the last issue. Contributors often, though not always, published pseudonymously and anonymously.

Famous quotes containing the words student and/or media:
“It is clear that everybody interested in science must be interested in world 3 objects. A physical scientist, to start with, may be interested mainly in world 1 objects—say crystals and X-rays. But very soon he must realize how much depends on our interpretation of the facts, that is, on our theories, and so on world 3 objects. Similarly, a historian of science, or a philosopher interested in science must be largely a student of world 3 objects.”
—Karl Popper (1902–1994)
“Today the discredit of words is very great. Most of the time the media transmit lies. In the face of an intolerable world, words appear to change very little. State power has become congenitally deaf, which is why—but the editorialists forget it—terrorists are reduced to bombs and hijacking.”
—John Berger (b. 1926)
