University of Louisville to stop funding for student newspaper - GRACE CARNEY, Daily TarHeel

The University of Louisville announced it will discontinue financial support for The Louisville Cardinal, its student newspaper, by the end of the Spring 2018 semester on July 25. The Cardinal, which has been independent for 45 years, previously received $40,000 to $60,000 in advertising from the president’s and provost’s office, according to an article the paper put out Sept. 20. John Karman, a spokesperson for the university, said funding for The Cardinal was cut because the university has been dealing with a budget shortfall. http://www.dailytarheel.com/article/2017/10/university-of-louisville-to-stop-funding-for-student-newspaper
