In March 2010, following a student referendum, the Tribune severed its ties with the Students' Society of McGill University (SSMU), which had previously published the newspaper.[1] The newspaper is now published by the Tribune Publication Society - a non-profit, independent students' society.[2]
In April 2023, the newspaper dropped 'McGill' from its name and became known as simply 'The Tribune' in an effort to distance itself from the legacy of James McGill, a known enslaver.[3] In an April 12 editorial titled "We're changing our name. McGill should, too." the 2022-23 editorial board stated that "The Tribune has in the past been guilty of institutional racism, and as we continue working towards redress and strive to eliminate all forms of institutionalized oppression, our Editorial Board feels it can no longer bear the name that so unapologetically upholds and honours these systems."[4]
