What administrators are saying about the Collegiate Readership Program:

AMERICAN UNIVERSITY:

"The level of knowledge and interest in what is happening around the world is heightened by daily access to a selection of newspapers. Students get a variety of viewpoints and use the information they’ve gathered to enhance the reading they do for their courses. The USA TODAY Collegiate Readership Program is a homerun at American University . Students have quickly embraced it as one of the real benefits of living on campus."

-Gail Short Hanson, Vice President of Student Services

MIAMI UNIVERSITY:

"I’ve gotten several unsolicited notes and e-mails from students who took the time to write and say thanks for the newspapers. They especially like being able to closely follow national and international news in papers such as USA TODAY, which is the most popular of the papers we distribute. I strongly recommend that others consider adding this program to their campus."

- Richard D. Little, Senior Director, University Communications

THE OHIO STATE UNIVERSITY: 

"Higher education aims to inculcate students into a community and culture, providing them with the skills, strategies and context for becoming contributing members of a democratic society. I strongly believe providing students with access to daily newspapers provides a structure and context for students to transfer classroom lessons into dynamic real-life applications… I often refer to The Collegiate Readership Program as the most successful program on campus. I am proud to recognize USA TODAY as a contributing partner in our efforts to enhance student learning and excellence in residence halls."

- Ron Kochendoerfer, Director of Housing Administration

SAM HOUSTON STATE UNIVERSITY:

"The newspapers are a valuable resource for my students in the Freshman Leadership Program. I require them to stay informed of the local, regional and national current events. I always tell them," You cannot be leaders in the world if do not know what is happening in the world."

- Frank Parker, Vice President of Student Affairs

THE UNIVERSITY OF BUFFALO:

"The USA TODAY Collegiate Readership Program allows our educators to rest assured knowing that the walls of their classrooms are without boundaries. The program extends our classrooms to our student union, dining and residence halls, and most importantly, to our students’ social environment and conversations."

- Andrea Constantino, Director of Student Life
