The Georgetown Voice
The Georgetown Voice is a student-run biweekly campus news magazine at Georgetown University. Founded as a print magazine in March 1969, the Voice publishes new editions every other Friday during the academic year. The magazine publishes online daily throughout the year, featuring news on campus and in the District of Columbia, as well as commentary, reviews, long-form journalism, and sports and entertainment coverage. Online, the Voice also produces podcasts and maintains a variety sports and culture blog. It is entirely operated, written, edited, and designed by student volunteers.
The Voice debuted on March 4, 1969. Founder Steve Pisinski created the magazine alongside breakaway editors of The Hoya, the university's legacy newspaper, after growing dissatisfied with its coverage of Vietnam War protests. In an inaugural editorial, the magazine's editors outlined the publication's mission:
"Our editorial policy will view and analyze issues in a liberal light. We shall not limit our editorial content to campus topics. We promise to present and analyze national and local issues of concern to the student, whose concern should spread beyond the campus. We shall attempt with all our energy to inform the community, to make the community conscious of controversial subjects by an open presentation and discussion of relevant issues, to communicate a culture, and to entertain our readers. "
The Hoya published an editorial on Nov. 12, 1970 proposing a merger with the Voice, citing concerns about the university's media budget and claiming the "ideological differences that lead to the founding of the Voice no longer exist." The Voice's editorial board rejected the offer the following day.
In 2006, the Voice launched a daily blog called Vox Populi, which published until 2015. It offered analysis on campus and District news, as well as recaps for sports and student government.
Sen. Bob Menendez (D-NJ) referenced the Voice on the Senate floor on April 11, 2007, while questioning Special Envoy to Sudan Andrew Natsios about the Darfur genocide.
In 2014, the Voice launched Halftime, a sports and leisure blog dedicated to non-campus content.
In celebration of the magazine's 50th anniversary, the Voice launched the Steve Pisinski Scholarship in 2019 to offer students stipends during unpaid journalism internships.
