[edit] About
As the official student newspaper of the University of New Haven since 1938, the staff of The Charger Bulletin strives to write articles that express student opinion and news from a student's point of view. We cover on-campus and off-campus events; local, national and important international news stories; and we even feature political editorials, comics, entertainment reviews and more. Our many features include The Charger Battery, which recaps the week at UNH covering the pros and cons with a sarcastic twist.
The Charger Bulletin, also known as the Bulletin, is run solely by the students of the University of New Haven; both undergraduates and graduates write for the paper. The Bulletin comes out weekly on Wednesdays while classes are in session. The paper version of the Bulletin is distributed for free throughout the campus of the University of New Haven, and it is also published online.
As of Spring 2007, additional features include the Political Roving Reporter, WNHU's DJ of the Week, Ask Ernie Advice Column, and much more!
The staff of talented writers and photographers captures the best of what is important to UNH students, and a staff position is open to anyone willing to come to meetings and put in some effort. Editorials written by community members are also allowed.
The Bulletin's past also includes UNH's involvement with College Night, an event for all local college students that takes place in the Broadway area of downtown New Haven, Connecticut. Colleges involved include the University of New Haven, Yale University, Southern Connecticut State University, and Albertus Magnus College.
With the induction of the new Editor-in-Chief and Assistant Editor (Jimmy Jacobs and Sweet and Sour Larry Sweeney, respectively) on May 10, 2008, new aspects of The Charger Bulletin include the online version of the paper, The Escargot food column, a new masthead, and much more.
