The Aquinas

The Aquinas, the university's first student publication, was originally established in 1916 as the monthly literary magazine of St. Thomas College, now called the University of Scranton.^[2] The inaugural issue of The Aquinas was published in January 1916.^[2] The publication remained a literary magazine from 1916 until 1931, with the final issue of each academic year serving as a yearbook for St. Thomas College's graduating class.^[2]

In 1931, The Aquinas became the student newspaper of St. Thomas College.^[2] (The school was renamed The University of Scranton in 1938). The newspaper has been published weekly or biweekly throughout its history.^[2] The Aquinas is presently a weekly newspaper, published on Thursdays.^[2]

In February 2014, the newspaper's staff released an editorial calling for improved access to information, including university crime statistics.^[3]
