The Student Life (abbreviated TSL) is a student newspaper covering the Claremont Colleges (7Cs, or 5Cs when referring only to the undergraduate colleges), a consortium of liberal arts colleges in Claremont, California. It is published weekly each Friday during the academic year, typically spans roughly ten pages per issue, and is primarily funded by the student governments of the colleges. The paper is the oldest college newspaper in Southern California, having been published since 1889. It is also the largest and most widely distributed campus newspaper at the 5Cs, with a significant readership among students, staff, faculty, alumni, and members of the Claremont community. It maintains a staff of around 130 students, including writers, columnists, photographers, videographers, designers, copy specialists, business associates, and editors. TSL operates out of Room 101 in Walker Hall on the northern portion of Pomona College's campus. History TSL was founded in November 1889 (two years after the founding of Pomona College) as a four-page monthly called the Pomona Student. Initially an informal bulletin for campus happenings, it adopted its current name and moved to weekly publication in 1893. By 1926, it was publishing five issues a week; many were filled largely with advertisements. In 1939, this was reduced to two issues per week to save money, and in 1944, these issues became only two pages long to conserve paper during World War II. After the war, it gradually expanded, and in 1956, it returned to weekly publication. In 1965, it merged with other Claremont Colleges newspapers to form the Claremont Collegian, which covered all 5Cs, but it was revived two years later as a Pomona-only publication (except for a two-page weekly insert focusing on newly established Pitzer College). Like other publications, TSL developed an increasingly robust digital presence in the 2000s and 2010s. TSL used to be closely linked with the Associated Students of Pomona College, but moved to become increasingly independent. In 2008, it began shifting its focus to cover the entire consortium, and its coverage and staff makeup today reflect all 5Cs. Sections TSL has four primary sections that appear in each issue: News, Life & Style, Sports, and Opinions. The News section appears at the front of the paper, and covers a range of campus politics, issues, and current events, and often includes investigative pieces. The content specifically focuses on the 5Cs and life on campus, and does not usually include coverage
