The Eastern Washington University student newspaper was first published in the fall of 1916 as the State Normal School Journal. The paper initially covered events on campus, placement of graduates in eastern Washington counties, and letters from alumni sharing about their experiences in the classroom. From 1917-1919, many of the articles are dedicated to the World War I war effort and former students serving abroad.
The publication went through a number of name changes as the school became the Eastern Washington College of Education in 1937. In 1951, the paper was renamed the Easterner. The Easterner and its predecessor, the Journal, are weekly publications.
