While the Gators and Bulldogs prepare for the World's Largest Outdoor Cocktail Party, the student newspapers that have covered the rivalry — The Independent Florida Alligator and The Red & Black — have an ongoing competition of their own. Each has a legacy of journalism excellence and an alumni roster of industry stars.
Funding student newsrooms is a challenge. Both student newspapers are independent nonprofits committed to offering journalism training to the students they serve. Until Oct. 29 at kickoff, The Alligator and The Red & Black will be challenging their readers, and alumni to donate to their news operations.
Help us beat Georgia and continue our student-run coverage of the UF and Gainesville community by donating at the link.
