The Observer is the award-winning[citation needed] independent student newspaper of the Lincoln Center campus of Fordham University.

It is published in print bi-weekly when the university is in session by a staff of more than 50 students.[citation needed] Content is also published online on a more frequent basis. Based at Fordham University’s Lincoln Center campus in Manhattan, The Observer’s circulation also reaches Fordham’s Rose Hill campus in the Bronx, making it available to all the students in the university’s undergraduate colleges and graduate schools.

History

The Observer is Lincoln Center’s fourth student-run newspaper. The first was The Curved Horn that was brought over from Rose Hill when the Lincoln Center campus was established in 1968. Two other papers, The Review and Evex were started up; by 1981, all three had folded, and The Observer emerged as the school's sole student publication.
