In the words of a seemingly-wise man, this issue is "by far the best we've produced." So enjoy.

Last issue of the semester's being distro'ed as we speak. Now, we're off to drink some eggnog and wear tacky wool sweaters.

The Fed's makeover is complete. It's now skinnier and thinner than before! Look for the paper at your local dorm or common gathering place. Or read it here.

The Fed's back, and if you've been a longtime dead-tree edition reader of our fine publication and grabbed a copy of our orientation issue, you would've seen a few changes. It's a exciting time for us, as we head towards that shiny light over yonder. If you want to be a part of the goodness that is the Fed, email us at thefed@columbia.edu. Also, stay tuned to this website for our info about our upcoming meet-and-greet and brainwashing sessions.

Eating snowcones and watching TV can only be good enough for so long. The Fed's Rob Trump met up with Jon Voight at the WKCR studios in Lerner for a chat with the Oscar-winning actor about the 1960s, Christopher Walken, and the metaphysical underpinnings of the Baby Geniuses movies. Click here to read the full interview.

Last issue of Volume 21's out and around. We're either graduating or heading off to (figurately) greener pastures. Some of us will get employed. Some of us will go home and live off our parents. Some of us are absolutely screwed. Some of us will descend into a kaleidospheric dazzle of orgiastic evanescence and unreachable illusion, whirling whirling whirling and painting a haze obscuring the boundaries of despondency felicity, transiency, potential, delusion, enthusiasm, numbness.

It was fun while it lasted. See you in September.

The latest Fed is being distributed to your local residence. Excuse any banana mush that may appear on the pages. Guaranteed delivery in 30 minutes or less or it's free.

Well, that was fun.

Come. Or Else.

Friday, March 24th, Lerner Party Space. Doors open @ 8:30PM.

More information...

We're back from our long slumber. The latest edition is now outside your door. And if it's not, then your neighbor stole it. Ungrateful bastard.

We've also got more archives uploaded. Issue 18.6's online, so's Issue 17.3.

Hey, guess what? The Fed Bash is coming! March 24th, in the Lerner Party Space. Don't know what Fed Bash is? It's only the greatest party on campus. Take a look at the shit we got away with last year.

After a three week respite, the Fed is back to saturate the campus with the printed word. But this paper can't publish itself. (We tried.) If you can write, draw, photoshop, carry heavy objects, or just think we're cool, come join us. Meetings are every Sunday at 9PM, at the 5th Floor Student Club space in Lerner. Click here for more information, and if you have any questions, email us.

Posters for Recruitment of Newbies

We've finished the last issue of the semester. It's oh so nice and pretty. We'll be back in February with more sordid tales of sex and violence.

That is all.

The Gangs of 1970s New York. Way better than that hack Scorsese's movie.
This Wednesday, Oct. 26, at the Lerner Cinema. 8:30pm. Download the flyers.

Greetings, web readers. We've put our latest issue up on the web. It's full of valuable insights about the teenage mind, plus some drawings of softcore porn!
Speaking of which, pictures of students getting screwed by Columbia are also available.

Greetings, long time readers and first time readers. We're back from summer, and ready to corrupt the innocent soul of the confused Columbia first-year. Speaking of which, we at the Fed are eager for fresh young virgins. (If you're not a virgin, then you are a slut. But we still love you.) Drop by our table on activities day (Friday, Sept. 9th). We'll also be having recruitment meetings at the Fed Office on Sunday, Sept. 11 @ 9pm and Monday, Sept. 12 @ 8pm. We'll be looking for help with writing, illustrating, comics, photography, Photoshop, copy-editing, and Quark layout. Newspaper experience is NOT required, or even particularly sought after. All we care about is your creativity and your willingness to get drunk. More about us and directions to our office are here.

The Fed's last issue of the year is now out and about. Wow, didn't realize that the semester's almost over.... We'll return in September and bring in fresh blood to replace those who are moving onto bigger and better things.
If you're starved for more Fed, you can take a look at our back-issues. We've been resurrecting past issues that haven't been published online, such as Volume 18, Issue 9, and Volume 17, Issue 4. But the archives are still a work in progress (translation: don't be surprised if you get a whole of 404 errors). We're still working on cleaning those up.

Since our physical newspaper prints in black and white, all of our graphics and illustrations are in black and white. But then we found our box of scented crayons, started coloring within and outside the lines, and thought, “Hey, that's pretty.” So starting with 20.6, we're going to be showing color versions of some of our graphics.

The Fed Bash -- a great time had by all. Though some of us have still not recovered from our hangovers. Photos available here. Old flyers here.

In case you haven't noticed, Fed Bash is this Saturday at the Lerner Party Space. $5 admission, 2 IDs to drink.

Remember back in September, when you stuck your faces in our large cutout of the Fed mascot and acted out your S&M fantasies? We've recovered the photos from our archives, and through the magic of Google's free photo software, we've posted them.

A unholy mix of great music, food, and truly weird shit is coming Saturday, Feb. 12 to the Lerner Party Space. Guaranteed to bring a night of platonic bliss to your life. Whatever you do afterwards is up to you. $5 to enter, 2 ID's to drink. Flyers and more details here.

The Fed rings in the start of the academic year with a brand-spanking new web design. During the migration process, old issues can be found from the archives link on the old site, www.columbia.edu/cu/thefed/v2/issues.html

Volume 19 of The Fed is complete. Satisfying, yet sad. As a prominent rock critic might have said, "Taken alone, each issue is spontaneous, witty, and innovative. As a complete set, they form nothing short of a masterpiece, bursting forth with revelation and showing us, more than an artist, and more than a scene, an eerily familiar vision of the modern landscape in all its brave, melancholic power."

We will return in August with an Orienteering issue, minus beloved Feditrix Kate Sullivan and dashing Fublisher Ethan Heitner. If you are in the publishing industry, please consider hiring Ms. Sullivan. We recommend her. Even if you are not, please consider sending Mr. Heitner large checks and any excess aquatic mammals you may have lying around your home or office. We recommend this too.

Happy Summer.

The Fed, instead of being wedged into the cramped, ugly, 6 square inch dorm room that is your Lerner Hall mailbox, will now be placed in convenient campus locales for your taking pleasure.

If you don't go to class much, aren't enrolled, live in a different state, or were redirected here from a porn site, the new issues are on the web too.
