The State News is the student newspaper of Michigan State University in East Lansing,Michigan. It is supported by a combination of advertising revenue and a $5 refundable tax that students pay at each semester's matriculation. Though The State News is supported by a student tax,the faculty and administration do not interfere in the paper's content. The State News is governed by a Board of Directors,which comprises journalism professionals,faculty and students. Unlike many newspapers,The State News does not employ an ombudsman. In 2010,the Princeton Review ranked The State News as the #8 best college newspaper in the country. And in 2015,the Society of Professional Journalists named TSN as the nation's best daily college newspaper for 2014.
