No one will be refused employment on the basis of race, sex, creed or national origin. The Southo Coloradan is a student-run newspaper, which means it is written, edited and published by students for students of Adams State College. The editor and associate editor are employed by the ASC Communications Board, and a faculty adviser is available to answer questions concerning budgeting, managing, training, ethics and law. Student fees, advertising income, subscriptions and donations finance the South Coloradan. The Communications Program, the College Center and Computing Services also support it.
Unsigned editorials represent the opinions of the editor and associate editor.
Guest columns and letters are edited to style. The South Coloradan will print letters to the editor if they are typed, signed and not libelous. They must be less than 600 words and delivered to the office behind the College Center mail room by 5 p.m. Monday. Students must be identified by class and non-students by city of residence. Libel is a defamatory statement published with the knowledge it is false or with reckless disregard for the truth.
