About This Item
Provo, UT, 1983. Year 1, Number 1 - Year 2, Number 7 [Vol.1, No. 1 - Vol.1, No, 2]. 29 issues. Newspaper [38 cm x 29 cm] / [15" x 11.5"] most issues 12 to 16 pages. All issues in very good condition, some with subscription labels. Complete run of the groundbreaking BYU student newspaper, that includes the 'Best of Issue' and the two printed copies of the (watered down) follow-up, University Post. Ron Priddis and Anthony Schmitt, both graduate students at Brigham Young University, founded the Seventh East Press to give an 'alternative voice' to BYU faculty and students. Maxine Hanks and Gary Bergera were co-founding staff members, with Hanks writing the 'Thrills' arts and entertainment feature and Bergera writing the 'Grey Matters' column on theological issues. In an attempt to show both sides of issues, the paper became controversial and was eventually banned from being sold on the Brigham Young University campus, after an interview with Sterling McMurrin (Year 2, Issue 4) where he stated that he did not believe that the Book of Mormon was 'authentic', even though he was an institute teacher more than 20 years before the interview. Rare.
