Vanderbilt University’s first student newspaper, the Vanderbilt Austral, published six years after the University’s founding, reveals an identity struggle between who students were and who they wanted to be.

See Hannah’s curator statement, and discover the ins and out of 1870s student life in the new online exhibit 19th-Century Periodicals: Framing the New American Standard
