What Is The Pace Press?

The Pace Press is a student-operated monthly newspaper run out of Pace University's New York City campus, published online at thepacepress.org. It is the place to look if you want Pace student journalism — campus news, arts and culture coverage, opinion, and student life stories — written and edited by students rather than by a professional newsroom.

Who runs it

The paper describes itself as student-operated, and its own recruitment messaging backs that up: it has publicly called for "committed editors and writers to fill our year long section editor positions." That means the editorial staff turns over on an academic calendar, and the people producing the coverage are Pace students, not outside professionals.

What it publishes

Based on the stories and posts visible on the site, the coverage falls into a few recognizable buckets:

• Arts and culture — film and television writing, such as a "Reel Report" column, a seasonal fall films roundup, and a piece on the DCU series Lanterns.
• Campus news — institutional stories, including coverage of President Marvin Krislov announcing he would step down as of May 2027 after two terms.
• Opinion and commentary — argument-driven pieces, such as one on the dangers of tech dependency and another on why education is "worth the fight."
• Student life — lighter, seasonal and community-focused items, including spring movie recommendations.

The publication cadence is monthly, so expect a slower rhythm than a daily news site. Stories are grouped under a "Recent Stories" section on the homepage.

How it reaches readers

The Pace Press publishes on its website and maintains an active Instagram presence, where it cross-promotes articles and posts meeting announcements. From those posts, a few operational details are visible:

• It holds regular pitch meetings, and at least once offered a breakfast bar at its usual meeting time on a first-come, first-served basis.
• It distributes physical newspapers on stands around campus.
• It runs end-of-year meetings with writing awards for contributors.
• It has handed out bouquets to students on campus as a promotion.

Who it's useful for

• Prospective or current Pace students who want to write, edit, or contribute photography and want a student publication to join.
• Pace community members looking for coverage of university decisions and campus culture from a student perspective.
• Anyone researching student journalism at a New York City university as an example of a monthly, student-run paper with a web and social presence.

If you're looking for breaking national news or professionally staffed reporting, this isn't that — it's a campus paper with a student voice and a monthly schedule. If you want to know what Pace students are writing and arguing about, thepacepress.org is the direct source.
