Abstract	The Amherst Student is the college newspaper published by the students of Amherst College. The Student began publication on February 1, 1868 and is currently being published. From June 1943-August 1946, the Student suspended publication. During this time, two other newspapers were published to take the place of the Student; The Gazette of Amherst College (v.1) was published weekly by Amherst College from June 25, 1943-June 23, 1944; and, the Jeff (v.1-v.5) was published weekly by the students of Amherst College from June 30, 1944-May 28 1948. From 1877-1896 during summer school sessions, the Student was published weekly as: the Amherst Summer Student; and later as: the Summer School Student. During the Student’s publication history, numerous supplements and special issues have been published. Many supplements and special issues are called: Extra; and others have distinctive titles. Two supplements with distinctive titles published two or more times and which frequently carry the volume numbering of the Amherst Student are: the Amherst Student Review; and: View. Many issues also have incorrect volume, number and date errors or lack some of these elements.
Notes	The Amherst Student Review is a supplement to the regular Amherst Student. Accompanying the issue is one of numerous spoof issues of the Amherst Student that were published on occasion, usually (but not always) close to April Fools' Day. The spoof issue is titled "The Amherst Stupid." It is unclear if the date printed on the spoof issue is intentionally incorrect.
