The Daily Targum
Founded in 1869, The Daily Targum is the second oldest and among the largest college newspapers in the nation. The Daily Targum is a student-written and student-managed, non-profit incorporated newspaper published by the Targum Publishing Company, with a circulation of 17,000. The newspaper is published Monday through Friday in New Brunswick, N.J., while classes are in session during the fall and spring semesters.
Since the Targum is an independent, student-run, incorporated newspaper, funding for the operation, delivery, production, and printing is necessary because the newspaper does not get money from any other means within the University. They do not request funds from government associations, university groups, departments, etc., in order to keep the editorial content independent from the sway of views and opinions of various groups, and free from content control from various influences.
The Daily Targum is distributed daily at numerous various locations through the New Brunswick univeristy campus, and is also available on line at: www.dailytargum.com.
Any registered student who does not wish to fund The Daily Targum may request a refund of the fee by submitting a request in writing. The request must include all of the following information: Name, Signature, last four digits of the Social Security Number, College, Class, Date of Signing, and Campus P.O. Box. The student may either bring the refund request in person to the Targum Business Office in Suite 431 of the Rutgers Student Center or mail it to The Daily Targum, P.O. Box 5063, New Brunswick, NJ 08901. All Refund requests must be received by the Targum Business Office no later than 4 weeks from the first day of the semester. A refund check of the semester fee will be sent via Campus Mail to the named student at the Campus P.O. Box indicated in the request. Only requests that include all the information listed above will be accepted and processed for a refund. Refunds are personal to the named student and are not transferable or assignable. The refund application is available here.
