An eight-page monthly printed on 12 inch by 9 inch paper, The Gunston Ledger first appeared on October 15, 1963 on the then George Mason College campus located in Bailey's Crossroads. On the staff of twelve students included a photography editor, Richard Sparks, and he contributed two to four photos for each edition. The content consisted of campus news, features on GMC faculty and students, engagement and wedding notices, and some commentary. The Ledger became the Broadside on October 28, 1969. It was explained in that issue that the name change was part of an effort to remake the paper into more of a news instrument like that of the nation's revolutionary fathers. The Broadside was a weekly paper which contained sixteen or more pages in each issue. Photography in the Broadside was mostly limited to campus events and personalities. Currently (2012) Broadside is a weekly newspaper, published on Mondays during the semester, in print and . In addition to campus news, the paper features local, national and world news, entertainment, sport, music, restaurant reviews and commentary that might, in some way, affect college students. Broadside prides itself on being a newspaper by students and for students, and uses the tagline \"Writing the first draft of Mason history.\"","Student groups published yearbooks under various names from 1964 until 1989.  In 1989, the yearbook staff began producing a video along with a less comprehensive print yearbook.","The George Mason University Foundation was established in 1966 to advance and further the aims and purposes of George Mason University.

The Broadside was a weekly paper which contained sixteen or more pages in each issue. Photography in the Broadside was mostly limited to campus events and personalities. Currently (2012) Broadside is a weekly newspaper, published on Mondays during the semester, in print and . In addition to campus news, the paper features local, national and world news, entertainment, sport, music, restaurant reviews and commentary that might, in some way, affect college students.

Currently (2012) Broadside is a weekly newspaper, published on Mondays during the semester, in print and . In addition to campus news, the paper features local, national and world news, entertainment, sport, music, restaurant reviews and commentary that might, in some way, affect college students. Broadside prides itself on being a newspaper by students and for students, and uses the tagline \"Writing the first draft of Mason history.\"","Student groups published yearbooks under various names from 1964 until 1989.

In 1989, the yearbook staff began producing a video along with a less comprehensive print yearbook.","The George Mason University Foundation was established in 1966 to advance and further the aims and purposes of George Mason University. It is a 501(c)(3) non-profit foundation organized and operated exclusively for the benefit of the university.

An eight-page monthly printed on 12 inch by 9 inch paper, The Gunston Ledger first appeared on October 15, 1963 on the then George Mason College campus located in Bailey's Crossroads. On the staff of twelve students included a photography editor, Richard Sparks, and he contributed two to four photos for each edition.

An eight-page monthly printed on 12 inch by 9 inch paper, The Gunston Ledger first appeared on October 15, 1963 on the then George Mason College campus located in Bailey's Crossroads. On the staff of twelve students included a photography editor, Richard Sparks, and he contributed two to four photos for each edition. The content consisted of campus news, features on GMC faculty and students, engagement and wedding notices, and some commentary. The Ledger became the Broadside on October 28, 1969. It was explained in that issue that the name change was part of an effort to remake the paper into more of a news instrument like that of the nation's revolutionary fathers. The Broadside was a weekly paper which contained sixteen or more pages in each issue. Photography in the Broadside was mostly limited to campus events and personalities. Currently (2012) Broadside is a weekly newspaper, published on Mondays during the semester, in print and . In addition to campus news, the paper features local, national and world news, entertainment, sport, music, restaurant reviews and commentary that might, in some way, affect college students. Broadside prides itself on being a newspaper by students and for students, and uses the tagline \"Writing the first draft of Mason history.\"","Student groups published yearbooks under various names from 1964 until 1989.

An eight-page monthly printed on 12 inch by 9 inch paper, The Gunston Ledger first appeared on October 15, 1963 on the then George Mason College campus located in Bailey's Crossroads. On the staff of twelve students included a photography editor, Richard Sparks, and he contributed two to four photos for each edition. The content consisted of campus news, features on GMC faculty and students, engagement and wedding notices, and some commentary. The Ledger became the Broadside on October 28, 1969. It was explained in that issue that the name change was part of an effort to remake the paper into more of a news instrument like that of the nation's revolutionary fathers. The Broadside was a weekly paper which contained sixteen or more pages in each issue. Photography in the Broadside was mostly limited to campus events and personalities. Currently (2012) Broadside is a weekly newspaper, published on Mondays during the semester, in print and . In addition to campus news, the paper features local, national and world news, entertainment, sport, music, restaurant reviews and commentary that might, in some way, affect college students. Broadside prides itself on being a newspaper by students and for students, and uses the tagline \"Writing the first draft of Mason history.\"","Student groups published yearbooks under various names from 1964 until 1989.

An eight-page monthly printed on 12 inch by 9 inch paper, The Gunston Ledger first appeared on October 15, 1963 on the then George Mason College campus located in Bailey's Crossroads. On the staff of twelve students included a photography editor, Richard Sparks, and he contributed two to four photos for each edition. The content consisted of campus news, features on GMC faculty and students, engagement and wedding notices, and some commentary. The Ledger became the Broadside on October 28, 1969. It was explained in that issue that the name change was part of an effort to remake the paper into more of a news instrument like that of the nation's revolutionary fathers. The Broadside was a weekly paper which contained sixteen or more pages in each issue. Photography in the Broadside was mostly limited to campus events and personalities. Currently (2012) Broadside is a weekly newspaper, published on Mondays during the semester, in print and . In addition to campus news, the paper features local, national and world news, entertainment, sport, music, restaurant reviews and commentary that might, in some way, affect college students. Broadside prides itself on being a newspaper by students and for students, and uses the tagline \"Writing the first draft of Mason history.\"","Student groups published yearbooks under various names from 1964 until 1989.

It is a 501(c)(3) non-profit foundation organized and operated exclusively for the benefit of the university. The foundation assists the university in generating private support, and manages, invests, and administers private gifts, including endowment and real property.
