==History==
In 1979, the [[Institute For Educational Affairs]] (IEA) responded to the request of two [[University of Chicago]] students for start-up funding for a new conservative newspaper, ''Counterpoint''.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.isi.org/cn/about/history.aspx |title=Collegiate Network - About the CN - History |accessdate=February 12, 2006 |url-status=dead |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20060511165454/http://www.isi.org/cn/about/history.aspx |archivedate=May 11, 2006 }}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|date=2004-12-02|title=John J.

In 1990, the Madison Center for Educational Affairs merged with the IEA to maintain funding for what had expanded to 57 conservative student publications. The [[Intercollegiate Studies Institute]] took over operations in 1995 and has since administered the CN from [[Wilmington, Delaware]].
