The Beacon, UP's weekly student newspaper, is owned and published by The University of Portland, which delegates editorial responsibility to student editors. The Beacon provides a forum within which students, staff and faculty members engage in free and responsible public dialogue on a wide variety of public issues, as well as campus-related topics.
We publish our print edition every Thursday during the academic year except during vacation breaks, finals weeks and the week prior to finals.
