HEC/News—Campus Press Watch
This page contains a list of links to news articles published in the collegiate press concerning alcohol, other drug, violence-related issues. The HEC/News Team monitors online campus newspapers appearing on the American Journalism Review's Campus Newspaper and the College Publisher Network Affiliates lists for accounts of students, faculty, administration, and surrounding communities grappling with current challenges related to alcohol, other drugs, and violence.
Each article's name, date, and source are posted weekly, along with a link to the original article. These links, as part of the Center's Web site, are permanently available for archival purposes. Every Friday HEC/News subscribers receive an e-mail message with the headlines, dates, and sources of articles posted during the week; a link to this page is also provided.
As the objective of this page is to reflect the student press without giving undue emphasis to what some might characterize as “bad news,” links to police blotter, crime watch, and 911 type features, which report on individual victims and incidents, are avoided. These types of articles may be found on the Center's Incidents page.
Do you have a news report you would like to see posted? Please send suggestions to the HEC/News Team.
