Lone Conservative was created for college students, by college students. Our story starts in 2016 when Kassy Dillon created a platform for conservative college students to have both a voice and a community.

Since then, more than 400 students have contributed to Lone Conservative. In addition to having their work published on the website, Lone Conservative contributors receive personal feedback and training opportunities to help strengthen their writing and media skills.

Contributors and columnists primarily write political commentary, while also occasionally reporting on campus bias. The Intercollegiate Studies Institute awarded Lone Conservative its Collegiate Network publication of the year in 2018.
