Communicator (1991-2012)

This publication began as the UHS-COMmunicator in 1990, when Kansas City University was known as University of Health Sciences (or UHS-College of Osteopathic Medicine). It was issued first as a newspaper, but by the second issue had become a glossy magazine, featuring university and alumni news. When the university's name changed to Kansas City University of Medicine and Biosciences (KCUMB) in 2004, the publication's title changed to KCUMB Communicator. It ceased publication in 2012.
