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:

    “Now when Job’s three friends heard of all these troubles that had come upon him, each of them set out from his home—Eliphaz the Temanite, Bildad the Shuhite, and Zophar the Naamathite. They met together to go and console and comfort him.”
    —Bible: Hebrew, Job 2:11.

    “If you are well off and can afford to spend ten or twenty-five dollars a day to hire some patient soul to listen to your troubles you can be readjusted to the crazy scheme of things and spare yourself the humiliation of becoming a Christian Scientist. You can have your ego trimmed or removed, as you wish, just like a wart or bunion.”
    —Henry Miller (1891–1980)
