The Harvard Crimson
The Harvard Crimson is the only breakfast-table daily newspaper in Cambridge, MA. The Crimson publishes every morning, Monday through Friday, except on federal and University holidays. In addition to the daily newspaper, The Crimson publishes an extended sports section on Mondays; Fifteen Minutes, the weekend magazine of The Crimson on Thursdays; and an arts section on Tuesdays. The Crimson is the nation's oldest continuously published daily college newspaper, and was founded in 1873 and incorporated in 1967. The newspaper traces its history to the first issue of "The Magenta," published January 24, 1873, and changed its name to "The Crimson" to reflect the new color of the college on May 21, 1875. The Crimson has a rich tradition of journalistic integrity and counts among its ranks of editorship some of America's greatest journalists. The faces of Pulitzer Prize-winning Crimson editors line the walls of The Crimson. Past editors include John F. Kennedy '40, Don Graham '65, Jeff Zucker '86, Jim Cramer '76, and Steve Ballmer '77. The name of Franklin D. Roosevelt, Class of 1904, is proudly engraved upon The Crimson's president's chair. One hundred and forty-eight years after its founding, having grown from a fortnightly newspaper to a daily, The Harvard Crimson continues to flourish with a strong body of undergraduate staff volunteers.
