The Senate of Pennsylvania is honoring Lincoln University's student newspaper, The Lincolnian, for its 100th anniversary.

Founded in 1925 as a student-run newspaper, The Lincolnian has covered campus and world news for nearly a century through the voices of Lincoln students.

The university celebrated the state's recognition Thursday at its Philadelphia campus in University City as part of its homecoming week. Philadelphia Mayor and Lincoln alumna Cherelle Parker was said to be in attendance at the event, which also served as the homecoming kickoff pep rally. The celebration featured an exhibit showcasing some of the newspaper's most prominent issues and honored former Lincolnian contributors and alumni who have gone on to have successful careers in journalism and media.
