The California Patriot was an independent, student-run, glossy-covered opinion magazine at the University of California, Berkeley.

History

The magazine was started in 2000 by two 19-year-old sophomores, Tyler Monroe and Kelso Barnett.

Overview

The magazine's mission was to promote conservative politics and opinion at the university. The magazine printed eight issues a year and was distributed on the Berkeley campus free of charge. When a new issue was released, the Patriot homepage provided a link to a pdf version for reading. The Patriot also provided subscription options. The magazine received most of its funding from individuals and conservative foundations around the country.
