...Harvard Advocate, founded in 1866, boasts the distinction of being the nation’s “oldest continuously published college literary magazine.” Along with similarly historic student-run publications such as The Harvard Crimson and The Harvard Lampoon, the Advocate has proven its tenacious staying power.
