Distribution

6,000 copies of The Oakland Post are distributed free of charge every Wednesday to locations on campus at Oakland University and select local off-campus locations. The Oakland Post switches to monthly production during the summer months of May, June and July because of low traffic to the commuter-driven campus.

In 2013, former editor-in-chief Seguin started converting the newspaper to a web-first paper with daily multimedia content and content management software. A brand new website, powered by TownNews BLOX, is expected to launch in the summer of 2013.

Sections

The two opinion sections of the newspaper are Perspectives (opinion and editorial) and Mouthing Off (satire and humor). The Campus section covers campus issues and events. The Sports section provides coverage of Oakland athletics and professional sports. The Life section replaced the "Features" and "Scene" sections in 2012 to better present stories in an aesthetically pleasing manner. The Local news section, which covered the efforts of students of Oakland and coverage of surrounding areas, was removed in 2013 after Wolchek took over.
