The Minnesota Daily

The Minnesota Daily is an independent, student-produced newspaper on the Twin Cities campus of the University of Minnesota. The paper is published Monday thru Thursday during the fall and spring, and on Wednesdays during the summer. A non-profit corporation with tax-exempt status, The Daily operates as a training institution, governed by a Board of Directors, who each year select an editor-in-chief, business operations officer and president to run the newspaper as the Office of the Publisher. More than 100 years old, The Daily has grown from a small arts weekly founded near the 19th century's close to becoming one of the nation's largest college newspapers, and one of the very few that are entirely student-operated. Though a portion of The Daily's funding comes from a fee assessed to all students on campus taking classes full-time, the majority of its publishing costs are covered by selling advertisements.
