The Trinity Tripod is the official student newspaper of Trinity College and was established in 1904. The paper strives to give complete coverage of campus news and is the primary medium for the expression of student opinion and criticism. The Tripod is published Tuesdays while classes are in session and available at a variety of locations on campus, including the Tripod news stands at Mather Hall and Raether Library.

Famous alumni include syndicated columnist George F. Will ’62 and sportswriter Jim Murray ’43 - both Pulitzer Prize winners.
