The Atlantic Sun was the FAU (Florida Atlantic University) [1] school newspaper for many many years, from the mid 60's (when the university was founded) to about 1990. At this time, the paper was completely student run (there was not facaulty or staff supervisors).
In that year, the paper was very critical of the Administration (so what else is new). In order to strike back, the Administration looked at the academic records of each of the editors and found that most of them technically could not work for the newspaper with such abysmal GPA (Grade Point Average)s. The editors of the newspaper where outraged and shouts of “Censorship” were heard about the campus.
In a very bold move, the newspaper persuaded the Student Goverment to give them several thousand dollars (on the order of about US (United States)$50,000), plus all the existing equipment to form a newspaper off campus and become completely independant. So, the old staff left campus with mucho dollars and all the equipment and set up shop about a mile off campus, and thumbed their noses at the Administration (as well as various other body parts).
One year later the Independant Atlantic Sun (as it was called) went bankrupt and folded operations.
It only took about three years for a new student newspaper to form.
Ah, policitcs. Ya gotta love it … (don't even ask about the Student Goverment here …)
