Topics
The University of Denver Clarion covers university-related information in a few areas: News, Sports, Opinions and Arts & Life.
Other coverage
The Clarion is active on multiple social media platforms, including Twitter, Facebook, Instagram and Snapchat.
Although the DU Clarion has covered many controversial topics throughout the duration of its presence on the DU campus, coverage by outside sources has been somewhat limited. However, some stories have received attention from beyond the university’s campus.
On January 12, 2010, an article titled "Seven women you meet at DU" was published in the opinion section of the Clarion. The article sparked much debate. The article itself was eventually removed from the website and created enough buzz to generate a petition.
The DU Clarion also published coverage of the first Presidential Debate of 2012, which was hosted at the university's Magness Arena.[1]
