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:
“When our kids are young, many of us rush out to buy a cute little baby book to record the meaningful events of our young child’s life...But I’ve often thought there should be a second book, one with room to record the moral milestones of our child’s lives. There might be space to record dates she first shared or showed compassion or befriended a new student or thought of sending Grandma a get-well card or told the truth despite its cost.”
—Fred G. Gosman (20th century)
“The media transforms the great silence of things into its opposite. Formerly constituting a secret, the real now talks constantly. News reports, information, statistics, and surveys are everywhere.”
—Michel de Certeau (1925–1986)
