The Eastern Progress
The Eastern Progress is EKU's student-produced, weekly newspaper. This award-winning newspaper includes upcoming events, articles on student life, notices of important dates and policy changes; in short, it keeps you up to date on what's happening, where and with whom on campus. The editorial page frequently takes campus administrators to task for some current issue and the "Police Beat" is always of interest. The Eastern Progress is FREE and is widely distributed, every Thursday, in the lobbies of most campus buildings.
