Yale Daily News
The Yale Daily News is a student newspaper published by students at Yale University, an Ivy League university in New Haven, Connecticut, United States since 1878. It is the oldest independent college daily newspaper in the United States.
Financially and editorially independent of Yale University since its founding, the Yale Daily News is published online by a student editorial and business staff Monday through Friday, in addition to a Friday print edition, during Yale's academic year. Called the YDN, or sometimes the News, the Daily News, or the Daily Yalie[citation needed], the newspaper is produced in Briton Hadden Memorial Building at 202 York Street in New Haven and printed off-site at Valley Publishing Company in Derby, Connecticut[citation needed].
Each day, reporters, mainly freshmen and sophomores[citation needed], cover the university, the city of New Haven and sometimes the state of Connecticut. Besides updating its website with new stories five days a week, the News sends out daily, weekend and breaking news newsletters and posts its contents to social media.
The News also publishes a daily opinion section, a Friday "WKND" section[further explanation needed], and special issues for the incoming freshman class, Yale's Class Day and Commencement, The Game against Harvard University, and the experiences of Latinx, Black and Asian students in October, February and April, respectively.
Staff members generally serve as editors on the managing board during their junior year. A single chairman led the editorial and business sides of the News until 1970. Since then, the editor-in-chief also serves as president of the Yale Daily News Publishing Company, while the publisher oversees business operations.
In addition to the newspaper, the Yale Daily News Publishing Company publishes the Yale Daily News Magazine, video news via YTV, and numerous podcast series.
In its inaugural edition on January 28, 1878, the newspaper's first editors wrote: "The innovation which we begin by this morning's issue is justified by the dullness of the times, and the demand for news among us."
The News calls itself the "oldest college daily" in the United States, a claim contested by numerous college student newspapers. Most accurately put, the News is the oldest independent college daily.
