The Universe is the official student newspaper for Brigham Young University (BYU) and was started in 1956. It was first titled Y News, which was then changed to The Blue and White and finally to The Daily Universe. The Daily Universe is part of a larger news organization called BYU NewsNet, which was the first integrated news organization in the world. The paper was printed Monday through Friday, except during school breaks and some holidays. It was distributed free of charge on BYU campus and is sent around the world to alumni and friends of the university for a small fee. On January 12, 2012, the BYU Communications Department announced the newspaper's move to digital. Beginning in 2012, content remained being published online daily while the print newspaper began being published only once a week. Other articles will be the The Daily Universe Website. This decision was made as advertising funds are dropping and the newspaper is preparing students for the primarily digital world. The editors, writers, photographers and copy editors are all students, some paid, some reporting for a journalism class. The opinion pieces in the paper are overseen by an editorial board that includes student staff, professional staff, university professors and local professionals. Wikipedia [ - ]
