Content
The Cord currently features the following sections in print: News (Campus, Local, and National), Sports, Arts, In Depth and Features (alternating), Opinion, classifieds, and letters to the editor. The paper's local content has expanded in recent years to cover regional news including elections and other events in the Waterloo community.
The Cord also publishes an online Life section with student lifestyle-related stories as well as horoscopes, advice columns, and the popular venting platform, "Dear Life."
In 2011, The Cord made the decision to remove its World section from print due to a lack of student reader interest. Instead, The Cord implemented the online World Blog, a compilation of multi-media pertaining to global news.

Famous quotes containing the word content:
“First it must be known that only a spoken word or a conventional sign is an equivocal or univocal term; therefore a mental content or concept is, strictly speaking, neither equivocal nor univocal.”
—William of Occam (c. 1285–1349)
“They tell us that women can bring better things to pass by indirect influence. Try to persuade any man that he will have more weight, more influence, if he gives up his vote, allies himself with no party and relies on influence to achieve his ends! By all means let us use to the utmost whatever influence we have, but in all justice do not ask us to be content with this.”
—Mrs. William C. Gannett, U.S. suffragist. As quoted in History of Woman Suffrage, vol. 5, ch. 8, by Ida Husted Harper (1922)
“Any so-called material thing that you want is merely a symbol: you want it not for itself, but because it will content your spirit for the moment.”
—Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)
