The University of Southern California's student-run newspaper, the Daily Trojan, will cease daily printing and end pay for student staff due to significant budget cuts. The decision, made without student consultation, has sparked outcry from editors who are now seeking alternative funding sources.
The University of Southern California’s historic Daily Trojan student-run newspaper will no longer be printed daily.
Among the budget cuts, students will no longer be paid for their work nor will the paper be physically printed five days a week – now just three. “It was just straight up telling us, hey, we have this deficit, and this is how we plan to cut it,” Fendrich said. “So far, we’ve been told we aren’t allowed to do anything and have to go through all these bureaucratic processes to get anything done,” Fendrich said.
"We continue to work directly with the student senior management team to adjust their expenses and develop a more sustainable revenue model. We are dedicated to ongoing engagement and planning with the Daily Trojan’s student leaders.
