The Barnard Bulletin was founded in 1901 as a weekly newspaper and historically covered events on campus, all aspects of student life, affairs of Barnard's administration and the Board of Trustees, and relations with Columbia. At the time of its launch, Barnard was among the few colleges in the country to print a weekly newspaper. The Bulletin switched to a biweekly schedule in 2007 and to a monthly schedule in fall 2009; it has also shifted from a traditional newspaper design, printed on newsprint, to a more features-oriented, glossy-paged magazine format.
