Large quantities of student newspapers have been removed from distribution points in unrelated incidents at four college campuses in the last week. 

At Ball State in Indiana, more than half of the print run of an edition featuring a story about the arrest of a member of the college’s soccer team were stolen while distribution was in progress.

At Loyola Marymount in California, stacks of a paper with two controversial stories were found in a campus recycling bin.

Approximately 300 copies of the University of New Orleans <i>Driftwood</i> were found in a trash can after an argument between newspaper staffers and student government officials. The issue in question contained an article critical of two student government officers.

And approximately 2,500 copies of an edition of the Kent State student newspaper were stolen for reasons that remain unknown.
