The Reflector is the editorially independent student-run newspaper of Mississippi State University. It publishes articles in print and online every Wednesday.
The Reflector was established in 1884 as The Dialectic Reflector and its name was changed to The Reflector in 1922. During World War II, from 1944 to 1945, the newspaper was operated and published by faculty under the name Maroon and White. Archives at the Mitchell Memorial Library at MSU hold copies of The Reflector from as far back as the 1880s.
The Reflector remains the oldest college newspaper in the SEC (Southeastern Conference).
