What Kind of Stories Does The Pace Press Cover?

The Pace Press covers student journalism from Pace University's New York City campus, with recent stories spanning campus news, arts and entertainment, and student-life commentary. It is a student-operated monthly newspaper, so its coverage reflects what student editors and writers choose to report each cycle. If you want Pace-specific campus updates or student-perspective film and TV reviews, this is the publication to check; if you need daily breaking news or professional industry reporting, a monthly student paper is unlikely to be your primary source.

Campus News and University Issues

The paper reports on Pace University leadership and institutional changes. One recent story covers President Marvin Krislov announcing he will step down as of May 2027 after serving two terms, including his journey with the university and his reasons for leaving. The paper also invited students to share their reactions to the announcement.

Student-life topics with a broader angle appear as well, such as "Generational resistance: unpacking the dangers of tech dependency" and "More than money can buy: why education is worth the fight." These are opinion or analysis pieces rather than straight news, which fits the paper's student-run editorial model.

Arts and Entertainment

Film and television coverage is a recurring category. Recent stories include:

• "The Reel Report: 'You've Got Mail'" — a film-focused column
• "Fall films to set the perfect autumnal mood" — a seasonal movie roundup
• "'Lanterns' is a light in the dark for the DCU" — TV/DC Universe commentary
• A spring movie list tied to the season's weather, covering titles like Midsommar and Miss Congeniality
• Coverage of the Life is Strange series adaptation, including details on the creative team and premise

These pieces are written by student contributors and often promoted through the paper's Instagram account alongside the website.

How the Publication Cycle Works

The Pace Press publishes monthly, and the homepage highlights recent stories with dates. Because the cycle is monthly rather than daily, the mix of stories in any given period is limited — typically a handful of campus, arts, and opinion pieces rather than continuous breaking coverage.

The paper also runs a working newsroom: it recruits editors and writers for year-long section editor positions, holds regular Monday pitch meetings, and gives out writing awards at the end of the academic year. That structure explains why content clusters around student interests and campus events.

Who It's For

For readers deciding whether to follow it, the practical test is whether Pace campus life and student-written arts commentary match your interests. The homepage's "Recent Stories" list is the fastest way to judge the current mix before committing to regular reading.
