The Daily Targum[2] is the official student newspaper of Rutgers University.[3][2] Founded in 1867, it is the second-oldest collegiate newspaper in the United States. The Daily Targum is student written and managed,[4] and boasts a circulation of 5,000 in 2017.[1] In its current form, it exists as a bi-fold tabloid-style paper featuring international, national, local, and university news, as well as editorials, columns, comics, classifieds, sports,[5] and other amusements. In 1980, the paper achieved independence from the University, establishing a non-profit organization, the Targum Publishing Company, which now oversees all areas of the paper. The Daily Targum is published Monday through Friday while classes are in session, in New Brunswick, New Jersey.[6]

In 2006, publishing of The Newark Targum began (and ended), having served the Rutgers–Newark campus for four issues.[7] CNBC personality Rebecca Quick served as the newspaper's editor-in-chief for a period, before joining The Wall Street Journal.[4] AVN personality David Aaron Clark had previously served as the newspaper's editor-in-chief for a period.[8]
