CWU's student-managed newspaper, the Observer, and its predecessors, the Campus Crier and Student Opinion, are not only the primary source of information on the history of Central Washington University but also an important resource on the history of central Washington state. The student newspaper has been published since December 1916 and is now one of the most requested resources in the university archives at Dr. James E. Brooks Library.
