The Maine Campus

Established in 1875, The Maine Campus is one of the oldest newspapers in Maine. As the official student-run newspaper of the University of Maine, we have been a trusted source of information and a platform for student voices for nearly 150 years. Funded by the student communications fee and advertising sales, we ensure that our publication is directly supported by the community it serves. Every aspect of our operations, from content creation to management, is led by a team of full student staff. As an entirely student-run publication with editorial independence from the university, we remain distinct among student newspapers nationwide as we do not contract non-student employees.
