Founded in 2005 by Yuriy Bronshteyn, The Colonel began as a Gaines Jury Project and quickly evolved into a campus-wide satirical newspaper. After a two-year hiatus, the publication was relaunched by three Gaines Fellows, two of whom had little to no experience with journalism, and one of whom was recently arrested for attempting to kidnap a dolphin. These three have since graduated, and the current editors-in-chief are neither fellows nor particularly gainly. Our mission is to entertain, inform, and not be arrested for kidnapping dolphins.
