in Washington, D.C., serving as the university’s newspaper of record. ''The Hoya'' is a student-run paper that prints every Friday and publishes online daily throughout the year, with a print circulation of 4,000 during the academic year. The newspaper has four main editorial sections: News, Opinion, Sports and The Guide, a weekly arts and lifestyle magazine. It also publishes several annual special issues including a New Student Guide, a basketball preview and a semesterly fashion issue. Although ''The Hoya'' is not financially independent from the university, it is produced, managed and edited entirely by students and maintains editorial independence. Over 300 students are involved in the publication of the paper.


History


Founding

The first issue of ''The Hoya'' was published on January 14, 1920, under the editorship of Joseph R. Mickler, Jr. Student journalism at Georgetown can be traced as far back as 1824 and the appearance of a hand-copied publication titled ''Minerva''. ''The Hoya'', however, was distinguished from previous student publications by its intent to be a comprehensive university newspaper. The publication took its name from the phrase '
Hoya Saxa Hoya Saxa ( ) is the official cheer and "college yell" of Georgetown University and its athletics teams. The term is an Ancient Greek word usually transliterated from as from the word () meaning "such" or "what" as in "what manner of", and is ...
', which had been adopted as a common chant at Georgetown sports events in the 1890s. The popularity of the term spread as local newspapers often cited the Hoya, and " Hoya" began to be widely applied to campus organizations and to athletic groups themselves.

Beginning in the 1940s, the publication shifted its main coverage from athletic to campus events. Weathering the

, student unrest in the 1960s and funding cuts in the 1970s, ''The Hoya'' has appeared almost continuously since its founding, providing a student perspective on issues and events. In its early years, ''The Hoya'' published once a week, focused mainly on internal, campus affairs, promoting student organizations and school functions, and devoted a large part of its coverage to sports. In 1930, ''The Hoya'' received the highest rating given to a college weekly publication by the National Collegiate Press Association. In the late 1930s, international events began to influence content. ''The Hoya'' was one of the few student groups to remain active during the war years, and its pages at this time juxtapose coverage of blood drives, war bond programs and alumni casualties with details of tea dances and intramural athletics. In the post-war era, the paper's focus returned to internal campus issues, perhaps reflecting the desire of veterans, who made up most of the student body, to return to normal life. The 1950s saw the introduction of two recurring features: the Basketball Preview Issue, which first appeared on December 3, 1957, and the

1970s and Watergate

In the 1970s, university support for the paper fell significantly; for example, funding was cut more than 55 percent between 1971 and 1975. As a result, the newspaper was forced to increase its advertising fourfold, and full-page advertisements became common. The paper changed its format from tabloid to broadsheet in the fall of 1976. As the Georgetown student body became more diverse, coverage of minority student groups increased, and articles on the activities and concerns of African American and Jewish students appeared. Women's athletics received more detailed coverage, as did the impact of

, and by the end of the decade, references to "girls" and "hoyettes" had been eliminated from the sports pages. Issues in the spring of 1973 contained coverage of attempts by gay students to organize and obtain official recognition. The years of 1973 and 1974 saw a number of articles on the

. The coverage of Watergate is possibly linked to the fact that a number of players in the Watergate investigations had Georgetown connections. In the post-Watergate era, perhaps influenced by the event, ''The Hoya'' began to run investigative journalism pieces. As a result, the paper went from being viewed as generally supportive of the administration to being one of the university’s chief antagonists. The spring of 1977 brought perhaps the most significant example of this when a story about the firing of five resident assistants led to a university hearing about the entire residence life system and, ultimately, to the resignation of both a vice president and a dean.


1980s and expansion

A number of significant changes to ''The Hoya''s production occurred during the 1980s. The first issue of 1980, produced on January 25, was the first to appear without the approval of a faculty moderator who had previously been a member of the editorial board. And, after six decades of appearing once a week, ''The Hoya'' moved to a twice-weekly schedule beginning in the fall of 1987. Other changes included the adoption of the current masthead in 1982 and the development of standard typefaces for headlines and copy.


1990s to present

The 1990s saw the consolidation and expansion of ''The Hoya''s entertainment coverage into a pullout arts and lifestyle section titled ''The Guide''. The paper already had a long tradition of providing coverage and reviews of both on-campus and off-campus entertainment, with reviews of off-campus plays and movies first appearing in 1929. In 1998, ''The Hoya'' launched a website. ''The Hoya'' also has two official blogs, ''The Fourth Edition'', launched in 2012, which provides a lighthearted take on Georgetown and D.C. news, and ''Hoya Paranoia'', launched in 2008, which covers university athletics throughout the year as well as providing commentary on national and international sports news.

since 2009. In 2017, ''The Hoya'' announced its transition into an online-daily format, publishing articles on a daily rather than biweekly basis. In the move to an online format, the paper also reduced its print publication from two issues a week to one, cutting its Tuesday issue while retaining the weekly Friday edition.


Campaign for independence

In 2004, the newspaper began its official bid to gain financial independence from the university. ''The Hoya'' receives around $25,000 from Georgetown University for its operation annually. Late in 2004, the newspaper launched a publicity bid to build grassroots support for the proposition; the school seemed willing to allow the paper to split off, but not with the name "The Hoya", which administrators claimed belonged to the school. In 2007, the school filed for a trademark on the name. The newspaper relaunched the campaign in early 2008 and circulated a petition that gained over 600 signatures from students and alumni. Though this campaign might have been successful, an April Fool's issue in 2009 put a hold on the independence movement. The issue included several articles that were perceived as racist and insensitive. The newspaper faced significant sanctions for the issue. In a Letter from the Editor in the first issue of the fall 2010 semester, ''The Hoya'' acknowledged that the notorious April Fools' day issue of 2009 was distasteful, but assured its readers that the newspaper would no longer participate in satirical issues. No April Fools' issues have been published since 2009. ''The Hoya''s Board of Directors voted in 2010 to delay independence until the national economy and the paper's financial situation becomes more favorable.


Stewards exposé

In 2013, The Hoya ran a series of pieces as part of an exposé against the
Stewards Society The Stewards Society (collectively referred to as The Stewards) is an anonymous, all-male service fraternity, often considered a secret society, at Georgetown University. The name collectively refers a handful of loosely organizationally tied gr ...
. This included a piece on the current student body president candidate who had undisclosed ties to the secret society. This piece would ultimately alter the course of the election outcome and increase scrutiny against the secret society. The Hoya would continue to run pieces on The Stewards' influence on the 2014 and 2015 races.


2020 and COVID-19 response

At the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, ''The Hoya'' temporarily paused their print issues and shifted to weekly newsletter-based distribution. The newspaper launched their TikTok account in the fall of 2020, garnering over 150,000 likes on their videos.
