After careful deliberation, we, The Daily Reveille’s student leadership, have decided to shift to a weekly print publication with an enhanced daily presence online beginning next semester.

We believe this drastic change is necessary, and we are confident it will improve the way we approach our two main goals: training the next generation of journalists and informing the LSU community.

We understand the significance of this decision, especially considering the presence The Reveille has had on campus since its inception in 1887, and we are certain this shift is in the best interest of preserving the status and efficacy of the same paper that University students and alumni have read for more than a century.

Not surprising.

Sucks though for those kids. The Reveille is supposed to teach them how a news organization works. This does jack shite for them.

It will teach them that print publications are dying and so are the companies that haven't kept up with the times. They need to learn how digital publications work. No reason they cant still do that.

It is still terrible quality and the op-ed pieces are just a giant troll show. Awful student publication.

The OTs favorite Reveille race batter Clarke Perkins wrote one this week on why LSU shouldn't get another Mike. Didn't even bother clicking on it.

Back when everyone wasn't completely electronic yet, this was reading material while in some classes. RIP piece of shite daily reading.
