The Lantern is the award-winning student newspaper at Ohio State. We are editorially independent of the university — that means Ohio State can’t tell us what we do or don’t publish, or what we can or cannot say. The majority of our funding comes from advertisements and endowments, and we receive a small amount from the university to support our LanternTV studio productions. Editors are paid throughout the school year via a monthly stipend provided through the School of Communication.

With a team of 23?editors and more than 40 reporters, The Lantern has been a mainstay of the university and has proven itself as a valuable community member. We have been on the frontlines of breaking news, delivering factual, thoughtful journalism to students, staff and faculty, alumni, and parents of Ohio State. In addition, our coverage includes university athletics, the Columbus area, and local art and music.
