The Statesman is the largest student-run news organization that has been serving the Stony Brook University community since 1958. We are the go-to source for anything Stony Brook related, including sports and student life, with a team of student writers and editors who work around the clock to deliver breaking news on campus.
We've covered protests, changes in policy, human interest stories and always strive to be a voice for the members of the Stony Brook community. This past year, we delved into how the Israel-Palestine conflict is playing out amongst students and international communities; broke news on major changes made in our athletics staff; and started producing three weekly podcasts, ranging from advice for medical students to in-depth analyses of university athletics.
Our writers have won awards at the local, state and national level, and our content is ever-improving with support from our community. This year alone, we continued to bring back printed editions after the pandemic hiatus, rebuilt our advertising relationship with local businesses and redesigned our website. The response from our students, faculty, administration and alumni has been overwhelming with positivity and support, but this has not been an easy transition.
We need your help keeping our independent press alive.
To continue providing our award-winning coverage, we need donors like you to help keep the independent press at Stony Brook alive with up-to-date multimedia equipment, sending our writers to cover important events in the community and keeping our student workers employed.
The Statesman is vital to the Stony Brook campus. We provide checks on school administration and student government, sharing the stories of students whose voices are calling to be heard.
We hope you consider donating to our cause.
