For over 100 years, The Antelope newspaper has published weekly for the students, faculty and staff of the University of Nebraska at Kearney and the community of Kearney, Nebraska.
Students in the UNK Communication Department produce the print edition on Mondays and do final proof and edits on Tuesday. The 2,300 copies of the paper are distributed in print on campus and in the community Wednesday afternoon, and the news content goes online early Wednesday evening. An updated interactive WordPress website was activated in the fall of 2011.
Students in JMC 350 serve as unpaid writers for the paper for credit, but writers, editors and designers serve in paid positions each term working toward internships and employment in the news fields. JMC 351 Ad Staff students sell and submit ads and run ad campaigns. Students produce video in JMC 343, and news and photography classes submit work on occasion.
Back issues from 2003 to the present are available here - note that there are currently gaps, which the Archives is working on filling. Older content or content not yet available online can be viewed in the UNK Archives in the Calvin T. Ryan Library. Current issues are available on The Antelope website.
