Freshly printed issues of the Courier wait to be picked up.

Midway Press is where The Brookhaven Courier is printed every month. Courier staff and editors make the final edits to each page of an issue before sending the paper to Midway.

Each page is measured precisely by Midway staff on a computer. They then send the digital copies to the printing press. After all 2,000 copies are printed, the issue is delivered to The Courier newsroom at Dallas College Brookhaven Campus.

Upon delivery, Courier staff cart the copies across campus, distributing the paper to all 40 newsstands in nearly every building on campus.

The Courier staff visited Midway Press during the spring semester to get an inside look at how their paper is printed.
