Editorial: Standing in Solidarity with the Indiana Daily Student
The Indiana Daily Student is facing opposition from its own university, highlighting the importance of student media in campus communities.
In a recent incident, Indiana University administrators attempted to restrict the Indiana Daily Student from publishing news stories in its homecoming print edition, which already had a limited number of print editions.
When Jim Rodenbush, Director of Student Media, refused to comply with the order, he was fired, and the university subsequently cut print entirely for the Indiana Daily Student.
In a show of solidarity, Purdue University's student paper, The Exponent, printed 3,000 copies of a special edition featuring editorials from the Indiana Daily Student and delivered them to IU's campus.
Student media is essential to campus communities.
This incident underscores the need for universities to support and protect student media, ensuring that they can continue to provide a vital service to their communities.
