The Knox Student online

The site is being designed from scratch by online editor Matt Baker using entirely open source software. Features will be added regularly.

[edit] Print edition

The Knox Student publishes a weekly print edition every Thursday afternoon while school is in session, as well as a freshman orientation issue at the beginning of the year and a senior issue that takes the place of The Gale - which at one point, was the college's yearbook.

Every student, staff, faculty and trustee receive a free copy of the newspaper. Parents, Alumni and other interested persons may subscribe to The Knox Student by contacting the Business Manager. The price is $60 per year.

The newspaper accepts national and local advertisements. Local ads are placed with the Business Manager. Knox College affiliates automatically receive a discounted rate.

The Knox Student receives funding from the Broadcast, Internet and Publications Board. The budget for 2006-2007 is approximately $14,000. The cost per paper is approximately $0.25 (assuming 2,000 copies are produced).

[edit] The Oxford Comma

It is important to note that TKS stands firmly against anything known as or resembling the Oxford comma. Any Oxford commas attempting to infiltrate the publication office will be prosecuted to the full extent of the law. They do not have a Miranda warning.

[edit] Controversy over Quality

If you have an issue with quality, seriously, talk to the editors. Contrary to popular opinion, they are nice people. Except maybe Evan Temchin.
