Encyclopedia

It is funded in part by the mandatory student fees each student is required to pay each semester, and by advertisements for local businesses and events.
The newspaper is run solely by students, and a few full time editors (who are employed by the newspaper and not by the university itself, thus they do not work under the supervision of faculty members).
