''Reed Magazine'' was originally founded in 1867 as ''The Acorn''. The magazine has had various names over the years. It was known as ''The Normal Pennant'' in 1898 (a reference to the California State Normal School), ''The Quill'' in the 1920s and ''El Portal'' in the 1930s. The name ''Reed Magazine'' started in 1948 when the publication was known as ''The Reed''. At that time, the magazine was put together by SJSU's literary society, Pegasus, with help from the Associated Student Body. The name of ''The Reed'' was derived from a quote by Blaise Pascal:
Man is but a reed, the most feeble thing in nature; but he is a thinking reed. The entire universe need not arm itself to crush him. All our dignity consists in thought. By it we elevate ourselves, and not by space and time which we can never fill.
