About The MQ

The MQ is UCSD’s premier satirical newspaper. Founded in 1989ish, we strive to offer a critical (read: self-aware, responsibly-grown) perspective on real (read: sorta real) stories that matter to (read: show up on the Facebook feeds of) and affect (read: gently caress) the lives of our readers (read: “humans”).

You can find us every Tuesday at 6 p.m. in Muir College’s Half Dome Lounge.

There’s always something to do, from writing, editing, and copying to Photoshopping, InDesigning, illustrating, or publicizing. Absolutely no experience required, only the ability to find us. I’ll be wearing a red feather in my hat.

— Barak Tzori, Editor-In-Chief 2016-2017
