From v. 1 no.4 of Gadfly: "We the editors and writers of this paper are active student leaders...therefore we take it upon ourselves to open a new channel of communication on the Manchester Campus. Other channels are open...but these channels are restricted by procedure and burdened by triviality.  We propose as a newspaper to fight the following:  1. The continuation of student apathy...2.  The continuation of student ignorance...3.  The continuation of hypocrisy between policy and reality within our community.  4.  The continuation of undemocratic authority within our community."
