Publications

The Yale Daily News, the nation's "Oldest College Daily," has published every year since 1878 and serves as an important forum for opinion and controversy -- controversy often initiated on its own editorial pages. Approximately one hundred undergraduates are completely responsible for the editorial and business requirements of this paper, and regular elections for top positions mean that the "management" changes every year and students have an established path to the top. The Yale Herald provides weekly reporting on campus events, opinion pieces, extensive coverage of intramural athletics, and full pages of student-drawn comic strips. Students at Yale also publish a wide variety of magazines: literary journals, political reviews, humor magazines, news journals, and the Yale Scientific Magazine, the oldest undergraduate science publication in the United States, to mention but a few. All publications are student-run and are distributed for free. Students from all four classes are encouraged to write articles, to sell ads to local businesses, to work on design and production, to write, and to edit. |
