College Newspaper
The Inquirer, the college's student-run newspaper, is produced on campus by the Journalism 126 class. It is printed on community presses of the Contra Costa Times. The paper has been produced with as many as 10 pages, but recently has been forced to print only four to six pages as funding has declined.
The newspaper was forced to produce its paper off-site at the Times' newsroom when a bomb-threat in 2006 closed the campus and access to the newsroom was restricted.

Famous quotes containing the words college and/or newspaper:
“... [a] girl one day flared out and told the principal “the only mission opening before a girl in his school was to marry one of those candidates [for the ministry].” He said he didn’t know but it was. And when at last that same girl announced her desire and intention to go to college it was received with about the same incredulity and dismay as if a brass button on one of those candidate’s coats had propounded a new method for squaring the circle or trisecting the arc.”
—Anna Julia Cooper (1859–1964)
“The newspaper is a Bible which we read every morning and every afternoon, standing and sitting, riding and walking. It is a Bible which every man carries in his pocket, which lies on every table and counter, and which the mail, and thousands of missionaries, are continually dispersing. It is, in short, the only book which America has printed, and which America reads. So wide is its influence.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
