Chimes is the weekly student newspaper of Calvin College, a comprehensive liberal arts college located in Grand Rapids, Michigan. The editor for the 2009-2010 school year is Stephen Mulder.

History
Chimes was founded in January 1907 when editor D.H. Muyskens and his staff published the first issue as a 15-page literary journal. Chimes would maintain this format during its early years, and published articles in Dutch as well as English until 1926. In 1946, editor Roberta Timmer converted Chimes into a weekly newspaper.
