Our Journalistic Standards

We here at the Trusty Husky recognize that comedy can be serious business. This is why we hold ourselves only to the very highest standards of satire and comedy.

  1. The Trusty Husky reserves the right to cover any topics or issues relevant to Northeastern University and the Boston area, regardless of how controversial, sensitive, stupid, or outrageous. We also understand that in covering sensitive topics, good taste and common sense are necessary.
  2. The Trusty Husky executive board (eBoard) reserves the right to edit, revise, and publish or not publish any submitted article.
  3. The Trusty Husky does not use real names in any of our articles, except when public figures are being satirized. We also reserve the right to use the names of real businesses near the Northeastern University campus.
  4. The Trusty Husky will never target any individual or group on the basis of race, sex, gender identity, gender expression, sexuality, religion, ethnicity, ability, or other similar protected characteristics.
  5. These standards took effect on September 29th, 2025, and will apply to all content published after that date.
