The Cayuga Collegian is the official newspaper of Cayuga County Community College in Auburn, New York. The publication is operated by Josh Cradduck, the executive editor and editorial board chairman since 2004. Mary Gelling Merritt, a telecommunications lecturer, serves as advisor

First published in October of 1953 at Auburn Community College as the Auburn Collegian, the name was changed to the Cayuga Collegian when Cayuga County began to sponsor the college, which was then renamed Cayuga County Community College in 1975.

The newspaper won a first place award from the American Scholastic Press Association in the 2005-2006 National Newspaper Review. Under Cradduck's tenure as executive editor and chairman, the newspaper was cited in the contest for introducing the use of color for the first time in 26 years, increasing the size of the paper from eight pages to 12 and expanding content.

The Cayuga Collegian is a member of the Associated Collegiate Press.
