The Northern Light

We are The Northern Light — your local student-run newspaper — focused diligently on providing you, the students and faculty of UAA, with "truth at all costs."

We work night and day, every semester, year-round, to ensure that all of our readers, regardless of their affiliation to UAA, have access to news that is fact-driven. 

The Northern Light — or TNL — keeps our readers updated on current events of all kinds through our columns section. Here, you will also find music, movie and restaurant reviews — in addition to other kinds of entertaining media. 

TNL is currently establishing a foundation account for our donors, which will allow TNL to receive donations. This is an ongoing project and will soon be available to the public. Follow future updates to stay informed.

Students or staff who may have tips or story ideas can email TNL Executive Editor Hannah Dillon or Managing Editor Kaitlyn Gaub. 

Readers can also submit to “Croft's Comments” for advice, suggestions or any other comments. 

TNL hosts open house pizza parties every day that we print. Fall  semester print dates are Sept. 2, Oct. 7, Nov. 4 and Dec. 9. 

Our open house will be on these dates from 12 p.m. to 3 p.m. Join us  to enjoy good conversation and free food in the TNL office located behind the Subway in the Student Union..

We encourage our readers to interact with The Northern Light, get to know us and communicate with us.
