More than a dozen conservative student papers have launched in the past few years. How do these Gen Z–run publications differ from conservative student newspapers of the past?
Nathaniel Greve launched an alternative student newspaper at the Georgia Institute of Technology as a way to help heal what he saw as the flawed political speech environment on campus.
“We were noticing that the way that students were handling their political discourse using platforms such as Reddit, Twitter, Instagram, YikYak, the school newspaper just simply was not a productive means of … making any kind of argument,” said Greve, a junior majoring in computer science. “I think this is a big issue to our school, and it was an issue at schools across the board and just the nation as a whole.”
