"The GUIDON", or simply Guidon, is the official student newspaper of the Ateneo de Manila University. It is part of the Ateneo's Confederation of Publications (COP), including "Heights" and "Matanglawin". [ [http://www.ateneo.edu/index.php?p=126 Ateneo de Manila University ] ] It is published monthly from June to March.

"The GUIDON" was founded on 1929 by Rev. Frank O'Hara, SJ, with Manuel C. Colayco as the first editor-in-chief. [ [http://theguidon.com/about The GUIDON: The Official Student Newspaper of the Ateneo de Manila University ] ]

Now on its 79th year, "The GUIDON" has three main purposes: to serve as a record of Ateneo history-in-the-making; to serve as an organ of journalistic expression; and to serve God and the country.
