Empire Times was the student newspaper of Flinders University. It was published by the Students' Association of Flinders University (SAFU) and was published from 1967 to 2006. The editorial team of the paper was elected by students. The editors were constitutionally required to produce at least ten printed editions of the paper during the academic year, and generally produced twelve editions, amounting to fortnightly publication while classes are were session. Empire Times had a history of controversial humour and anti-establishment discussion. Notable former editors include Steph Key and Kate Ellis.

The Empire Times ceased publication with the withdrawal of funding after the introduction of voluntary student unionism.
