The ''Daily Campus'', founded in 1896, is a student-run newspaper at the University of Connecticut that has a circulation run of 8,000 copies weekdays during the school year and twice during the summer. The Daily Campus has the largest circulation of any college paper in Connecticut and the third-largest in New England, behind ''The Daily Collegian'' (UMass) and ''The Harvard Crimson'' (Harvard University). Since its creation, the newspaper has undergone several name changes, starting as ''The Lookout'', a monthly, when it published its first issue in May 1896. The name was changed to ''The Connecticut Campus'' in 1915, followed by The Connecticut Daily Campus, and then finally just The Daily Campus in 1984. It began publishing five days a week during the academic year in 1952 and became a morning paper in 1955. The newspaper's offices are located at The Daily Campus Building at 1266 Storrs Road in Storrs, Connecticut. The paper was previously located across campus at 121 North Eagleville Road, but moved to their current location in 1991/1992. Though originally addressed at 11 Dog Lane, the building was re-addressed as 1266 Storrs Road in Spring of 2012 to accommodate the new buildings being constructed alongside the building as part of the new Storrs Center. The building is located at the South entrance to campus, across the street from the Fine Arts Building, and adjacent to Buckley Residence Hall. The two-story building houses the business staff and front-desk on the bottom floor, and the newsroom and conference room on the second. The Editor-in-Chief, Managing Editor and Associate Managing Editor have offices on the second floor, while the Business Manager's office is located on the first. The newspaper features four main sections: News, Commentary, Focus and Sports. Each section has its own department run by an editor and associate editor. There is also a Photography department, which provides student-shot pictures for every section. The photographers are managed by both a photo editor and associate editor. A single editor oversees the Comics department which provides 5-10 student-drawn comics to the paper each weekday. A Circulation Manager plans the delivery routes ad manages these student-drivers in the Circulation department. In addition, the paper employs a Graphics Manager, Advertising Manager and an Online Marketing Manager. Students of all majors are encouraged to join the staff. The newspaper is an affiliate of UWIRE,〔http://www.uwire.com/content/affiliates.html〕 which distributes and promotes its content to their network. == News == In December 2005, when controversial conservative commentator Ann Coulter visited UConn at the invitation of the College Republicans, The Daily Campus received the only one-on-one interview with Coulter and was the only outlet with pictures from inside the theater. All other media outlets were not allowed inside. The speech itself was marked by protests on campus, alternative "hate free" events and was cut short after about 15 minutes when a prank recording of "Kyle's Mom Is A Big Fat Bitch" from the TV show South Park was played over the loudspeakers. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「The Daily Campus」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
