Start a CN Newspaper

CN papers represent ISI’s commitment to free inquiry, publishing grounded, thoughtful journalism that upholds the principles of truth-seeking, intellectual diversity, and moral responsibility.

CN Newspaper Resources

In a time when campus discourse is often dominated by conformity, these publications embody the conservative tradition’s respect for ordered liberty, reasoned debate, and the pursuit of enduring truth. 

We provide editors with funding that can be used towards expenses including:

  • Recruitment – Bringing new writers, editors, and designers into your newsroom through outreach, training, or campus events.
  • Stipends – Supporting student journalists during the academic year so they can devote time to high-quality reporting.
  • Printing and Production – Covering the costs of print issues, website hosting, design software, and multimedia tools.
  • Events and Programming – Hosting speaker series, debates, workshops, and launch events that engage your campus community.
  • Travel and Reporting Expenses – Funding trips for investigative stories, interviews, or coverage of major events.
  • Training and Development – Investing in skill-building opportunities like journalism conferences, bootcamps, or CN workshops.
