Concordiensis

Concordiensis is the student-run newspaper of Union College in Schenectady, New York, United States. It was founded in November 1877 and is the thirteenth oldest student newspaper in the United States and is the oldest continuously published newspaper in the city of Schenectady. The newspaper's title, meaning "of or pertaining to union," was most likely suggested by Frederic F. Chisholm '79 and has been in use since 1890. Since then, it has been informally called "the Concordy."

Founding history

The Concordiensis is the third student publication in Union College History. It was preceded by the College Spectator (1872–75) and the Union College Magazine (a literary magazine in 1875). The newspaper's first editor, Edward Payson White '79, resigned before the publication of its first issue.

Production history

Over its long history, the Concordy has gone through numerous changes in format and frequency of publication.
