  • Generation is a student publication that operated out of the State University of New York at Buffalo in Buffalo, New York. Founded in 1984 by Eric Francis Coppolino, it was a fortnightly magazine with wide-ranging news, arts, literary and sports features concerning both campus and community events and issues. Before September 2009, Generation Magazine was a weekly magazine predominantly featuring news, multimedia review, and literary articles. Beginning in its first year, Generation received numerous awards in the Columbia Scholastic Journalism Competition. The publication maintains a history of producing eleven issues per academic semester which are distributed throughout the greater Buffalo area as well as across campus. All staff members are currently undergraduate students, contributing to its self-proclaimed title as "The Student Voice Since 1984." However, the magazine traces its lineage back to the 1960s, and is the longest surviving and most successful in a series of student magazines on the campus. Generation's immediate predecessor was The Current, which lost its funding and offices after illegally attempting to impeach Coppolino, then its managing editor, for publishing a satire on a conservative campus publication. Generation has strict freedom of speech accommodations in its charter, which was written by Coppolino in the aftermath of The Current incident. Generation's content is uncensored, often featuring crude language and humor in editorials and columns. In the past, its content included investigative features, news content, and feature stories. The magazine has always had an activist or advocacy journalism slant. Generation's fortnightly press run was 5,000 copies per issues over the 14 issue volume. It advertises itself as one of the largest student-run magazine on the East Coast of the United States. Before September 2009, the Generation printed 8,000 copies per issue over 22 issues. The publication has been involved in creating many auxiliary projects, including Reach, the campus student handbook for many years. It was published by [Sub-Board I, Inc.], the now-defunct not-for-profit student services corporation at the university. Sub Board provided some funding and a business structure for the magazine. (en)
