The Zamboni is a student-run humor publication at Tufts University. It was founded in 1989 and comes out with six issues per year, or once per month. It contains satirical articles (such as fake news briefs, interviews, and op-ed pieces), cartoons, and photos. It is known as "Tufts University's Only Intentionally Funny Magazine" and its motto is "Cowering Behind the First Amendment Since 1989." The Zamboni is fully funded by the Student Activities Fee as allocated by the Tufts Senate.
In 2014, The Zamboni started publishing digitally, and became part of more experimental humor ventures. As of 2014, The Zamboni creates pieces of installation art, multimedia, sketch comedy, and pranks, among other non-print projects.
