The Lantern - Recent Troubles

Recent Troubles

The Lantern has faced several of the same problems the rest of the newspaper industry has suffered over the past few years.

It was projected to lose more than $150,000 in 2008, according to School of Communication officials. In efforts to prevent further losses, the newspaper was forced to cut circulation down to about 15,000 and suspended the summer printing of The Lantern. Summer Quarter issues continue to be published on the paper's website.

In the past few years, The Lantern has gone through several different advisers, some of whom grew discontent with the school. The current faculty adviser for The Lantern is Dan Caterinicchia, a former editor for the Associated Press.

Famous quotes containing the word troubles:

    The troubles which have come upon us always seem more serious than those which are only threatening.
    Titus Livius (Livy)

    The Troubles are a pigmentation in our lives here, a constant irritation that detracts from real life. But life has to do with something else as well, and it’s the other things which are the more permanent and real.
    Brian Friel (b. 1929)
