Using Newspapers

The College Readership Program provides students with a daily newspaper available at several locations on campus. Funded by UMSL student fees, students may select each day from the New York Times, USA Today, and the St. Louis Post-Dispatch. To make the most of the program, faculty are encouraged to adopt strategies to use the newspapers in class. The following links provide suggestions for using newspapers in a variety of courses.
