The Herald: Campus Newspaper of Hobart and William Smith Colleges

The Herald is published by the students of Hobart and William Smith Colleges. The Herald was founded in 1879 and is the oldest newspaper of Geneva, New York. The Herald is the official newspaper of Hobart and William Smith Colleges. Our purpose is to publish news and content relevant to the HWS community in print and online. The Herald is independent and written and published by the students of Hobart and William Smith. It is independent of the Colleges’ administration, faculty, and offices. The Editor-in-Chief and Editorial Board have final say on all content; faculty, staff, and students may not demand conditions regarding publication of any material. Herald alumni have gone on to write and to work for many media companies or pursue graduate work in journalism. The Colleges do not publish the Herald or influence its content, nor is it responsible for any opinions expressed in the Herald. The Herald is published monthly during the school year except in exam periods or recesses.
