What is a student newspaper?

A student newspaper is a publication produced by students, typically within a school, college, or university setting. It covers news, events, opinions, and issues relevant to the student body and campus community. Student newspapers provide opportunities for students to develop journalism, writing, editing, and photography skills while keeping their peers informed. They often serve as a platform for student voices and may be published in print, online, or both.
