Welcome to the Olio Founded in 1855, the Olio of Amherst College is the oldest student publication on campus. First started as the college catalog and newspaper, the Olio evolved to become Amherst's annual yearbook.  The Olio staff is a volunteer student group that works year-round to record campus events and people. The Olio is funded by parent contributions and the Association of Amherst Students (AAS). It is printed by Jostens, Inc.
