Pipe Dream

Pipe Dream is the student newspaper of Binghamton University (State University of New York at Binghamton) in Vestal, N.Y. Content is published online throughout the week at bupipedream.com, as well as in print every Tuesday. Printed as a tabloid until spring 2012, Pipe Dream now prints as a broadsheet paper with full-color front and back pages. Pipe Dream is one of the few student newspapers in the country that is and always has been entirely student-run, without the supervision or assistance of an advisor. Though there is no journalism school at Binghamton University, Pipe Dream was named in 2010 as one of the nation's top college newspapers by the Princeton Review. History: The Free Word on Campus Pipe Dream was first published in the form of The Colonial News on November 22, 1946, the same year as the founding of Triple Cities Colleges, the forebear of Binghamton University.
