The Lion Newspaper Online
The Bellarmine Lion is the award-winning student newspaper, earning Gold Medalist status five years in a row from Columbia Scholastic Press Association. Published six times a year, this form of print media provides a forum for student expression and writing. The staff reports on recent campus events, noteworthy activities of students, faculty/staff, and gives an overview of academic endeavors and athletic competitions.
In addition to a print journalism focus, in 2012, www.bellarminelion.com made its debut. During the summer of 2013, the Lion newspaper staff also partnered with USA Today High School Sports and introduced a pilot program here.
