First and only summer print edition available today
By MICHAEL VAN DER HARST

Today’s edition of the Northern Star will be the only regular print edition for this summer. We will continue to publish online during NIU’s summer session, right here at www.northernstar.info.

Breaking news will be posted immediately, and the site will be updated to a complete new edition every Monday evening.

Readers with news tips should call 815-753-4239. Those wishing to advertise online this summer should call 815-753-0707.

The Star’s next print edition will be the Back to School issue, which will be delivered to all regular distribution points on Thursday, Aug. 21. We will resume daily publication Aug. 25, the first day of fall classes.
