Tags ASU Athenaeum

The Athenaeum is Acadia's official student newspaper. Often called "The Ath," it's the main source for news on campus and in the surrounding community. Published both in print and online during the school year, it's the second oldest student newspaper in Canada still in publication! 

The paper is an internal organization of the Acadia Students' Union (ASU). This means it is written and edited entirely by students and is funded by a combination of student fees and advertising. All Acadia students are welcome to join the staff, and no previous experience is required! 

 

Helpful Definitions 💡 

  • Internal Organization: A student-led group that is directly funded and supported by the Acadia Students' Union (ASU) because it provides an essential service to the student body. 

  • The SUB: The Students' Union Building, the central hub for student life and services on campus, where The Athenaeum office is located.
