[2] When The Brown Noser's founders first applied to the Board of the Undergraduate Council of Students to request a financial endowment for publishing, they were denied funding.
The founders then stormed the Undergraduate Council of Students meetings covered in body paint until they received funding sufficient to print The Noser five times a semester.
[4] In Fall 2009, The Noser adopted and revived The Brown Jug, the student satirical magazine founded in 1920.
[5] The Jug features humorous content which mocks popular culture, fashion trends, politics, humorous illustrations, and events around the Brown University's campus.
"[6] The Brown Noser publishes six times per year and unloads hundreds of copies within hours of its release by stationing writers at frequented campus intersections.
