Drexel’s independent student newspaper The Triangle first appears on campus in 1926. Financially and editorially independent from Drexel, The Triangle has been covering news, arts and entertainment, sports and other topics related to Drexel and the Philadelphia area since the beginning. Many alums of the publication have gone on to succeed in and out of the journalism field, including former columnist Chuck Barris ’53, creator of “The Gong Show” and subject of the movie “Confessions of a Dangerous Mind;” and former sports writer Albert Boscov ‘52, the founder of Boscov's Department Stores.
