Administrative history
This irreverent student newspaper has been published by Queen's Engineering Society since 1967. It is primarily humorous in intent, but it also contains a small section of serious news and information relevant to engineering students. The paper, which appears weekly on campus, was infamous in the 1970's and 1980's for its crude sexist and homophobic articles and cartoons. In recent years it has been toned down to a more politically-digestable form of humour. Prior to its establishment, the Engineering Society ran a column called the "Steam Shovel" in the Queen's Journal. Its offices are located on the second floor of Clark Hall, on the Queen's campus.
