The Student Newspaper as a Historical Source.

Vacha, John E.

Social Education, v43 n1 p35-36 Jan 1979

Reading past issues of one's school newspaper provides a source from which an era may be studied through student perspectives. The papers afford an examination of World War II, the "happy days"of the 1950s, and the turbulence of the 1960s, as well as an analysis of faculty censorship before that time. (KC)
