The Spinnaker is the official student magazine, 24/7 website, radio station, and TV station of the University of North Florida (UNF). The first issue of the magazine/newspaper was published August 17, 1977. The newspaper is published on a weekly basis during the school year, with new issues roughly once a month in the summer. Issues are distributed free around campus and are available in full form on The Spinnaker's website. It is the third student newspaper in the university's history.
The first newspaper on campus for students began as The Halyard and ran from 1974-1976. It was followed by The Phoenix (1976–1977) and The Spinnaker (1977–present). The Spinnaker office is located in UNF's Student Union.
