An Focal is the University of Limerick's only student newspaper, run by the University of Limerick Students' Union. The newspaper was first published in 1992. [2] . The production of the paper was formerly the responsibility of the vice-president/communications officer within University of Limerick Students' Union. Following the wind-down of this role in 2012, a full-time student editor was appointed as part time staff [3] . The editor is assisted by an editorial team of student volunteers as well as student contributors. The paper's print schedule was, up until December 2017, fortnightly before the union decided to change it to monthly with the union citing that the paper had "deteriorated considerably in terms of layout, spelling, grammar, use of colour and overall design".
