The Ram is the student-staffed weekly newspaper of Fordham University - New York City's Jesuit University. The Ram is published and edited by the students of Fordham University through University funding.
First published in 1918, the newspaper has been the University's official journal of record since its inception.[citation needed] The Ram devotes itself to serving both campus and community, acting as a means of club networking and cooperation, and, as the mission statement reads "providing a forum for the free and open exchange of ideas in service to the community and to act as a student advocate."
Though The Ram is the University's premier newspaper, its self-dubbed rival, the paper, a biweekly journal of commentary and review, and The Observer of the University's Lincoln Center campus have also recently won national and regional awards, and are distributed university-wide.
On the The Ram's 75th Anniversary, New York City Mayor David Dinkins proclaimed May 1st "Fordham Ram Day."
The Ram has garnered a myriad of awards for outstanding college journalism and its achievement in the thorough coverage of the University's academic and athletic happenings throughout history.[citation needed] Many of The Ram staff go on to careers in New York City's worldwide news and media industry.[citation needed]
