# Queen's Journal

## About
Queen's Journal has been the go-to student newspaper for Queen's University since 1875, churning out stories that hit home for undergrads, grads, and the wider Kingston crowd. It dives into campus buzz like club drama, prof scandals, and late-night AMS elections, all with that raw student perspective you won't get from official channels. Print hits stands weekly, but the website keeps the fire going daily with breaking news on housing hunts, mental health pushes, and Gaels game recaps. 

They serve the Queen's fam—25K students strong—plus alumni who can't quit the nostalgia, dishing value through hard-hitting investigations that actually move the needle on uni policies. Think exposés on sustainability flops or international student woes that spark petitions and chats. Multimedia amps it up: vids from frosh week, pods on activism, keeping everyone looped in without the fluff. Independence is key; no admin puppet strings here, funded by ads and donor love. 

It's more than ink and pixels—it's the forum where student voices roar, from op-eds on inclusivity to event guides that pack the house. Evolving with TikTok trends and SEO smarts, yet true to roots, Queen's Journal shapes the narrative. Whether you're a frosh stressing midterms or an alum reminiscing, it's your unfiltered pulse on Queen's life, fostering community one story at a time.
