Student Publications: The Sheaf
Mastheads for The Sheaf |
|
The Sheaf began publishing in November 1912 as
a monthly magazine-format periodical which focussed on serious political
and social issues. The only references to campus events came each year
in the April "Graduation Number", which was given over to a yearbook-like summary
of the students, athletics, colleges and events of the previous year.
On 27 October 1920 The Sheaf changed format and began publishing as a
weekly newspaper, at which point it quickly became the definitive forum
for University events, athletics and campus life.
It was not until the 1932-33 year that the paper evolved
from a basic bulletin board of campus activities to the outspoken purveyor
of student and editorial opinion, sometimes to the chagrin of Sheaf editor and University President alike.
