About

The Daily Californian is an independent, student-run newspaper serving the UC Berkeley campus and the Berkeley, CA community. It publishes Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday during the academic year and twice a week during the summer.

Established in 1871, The Daily Californian is one of the oldest newspapers on the West Coast and one of the oldest college newspapers in the country.

Daily Cal staffers have the unique opportunity of gaining daily metro news experience in the city of Berkeley, and is one of the few campus newspapers in the country that is completely independent from the university it covers. The Daily Cal supports itself entirely from advertising revenue and does not receive any form of financial support from the university or the Associated Students of the University of California.

The Daily Cal is run entirely by current or recently-graduated UC Berkeley students, and the majority of the business division of the newspaper is student-operated as well. It is published by the Independent Berkeley Students Publishing Company, Inc.

    The Daily Californian is an independent, student-run newspaper published by the Independent Berkeley Student Publishing Company Inc. The newspaper serves the UC Berkeley campus and its surrounding community, publishing Monday through Friday during the academic year and twice a week during the summer. Established in 1871, The Daily Californian is one of the oldest newspapers on the West Coast and one of the oldest college newspapers in the country. Daily Cal staffers have the unique opportunity of gaining daily metro news experience in the lively city of Berkeley. The newspaper has consistently covered the city and its institutions since its establishment, allowing student journalists to report on campus as well as city news. The Daily Cal also operates Best of Berkeley, a city guide and local arts Web site for the city of Berkeley.One of the few campus newspapers in the country that is completely independent from the university it covers, the Daily Cal supports itself through advertising revenue and does receive funding from the V.O.I.C.E. Initiative, which requires all UC Berkeley students to pay $2 per semester. The Daily Cal is run entirely by current or recently graduated UC Berkeley students, and the majority of the business division of the newspaper is student-operated as well.The Daily Cal earned its independence in 1971 and publishes with the name “The Daily Californian” pursuant to a licensing agreement with the UC Board of Regents. The move toward independence was initiated after the university administration attempted to fire three editors because of a controversial editorial regarding People’s Park, a university-owned lot in the Southside neighborhood of Berkeley that became an unplanned park for locals.A board of directors composed of Daily Cal alumni, UC Berkeley professors and working news media professionals oversees long-term fiscal management for the newspaper. The board of directors has no input or control over the Daily Cal’s editorial policy or newsroom operations. In addition, another external board, the Daily Californian Education Foundation, oversees projects for the newspaper staff’s training and fundraising for the Daily Cal’s continual growth. The Education Foundation, which constitutes mostly Daily Cal alumni, also has no influence on editorial content or policy.The Daily Californian Alumni Association is one the largest and most active alumni associations of any college newspaper. A chartered club of the California Alumni Association, the alumni association holds regular reunions and receptions across the country. Alumni are established and leading journalists in news organizations such as The Los Angeles Times, The New York Times, People magazine, The Arizona Republic, The San Francisco Chronicle, The San Francisco Examiner, Sports Illustrated, NBC News, USA Today and The Washington Post.In recent years, the Daily Cal has earned dozens of awards on a regional and national level for its comprehensive and high-quality coverage of UC Berkeley, the city of Berkeley and the entire UC system. In 2012 and 2013, the Daily Cal was named best daily student newspaper and best student newspaper website in California by the California College Media Association. The Associated College Press also awarded the Daily Cal one of the six Online Pacemaker Awards in 2013, recognizing the Daily Cal as one of the top online student publications.

Out-of-date news

Newest article is from May, 2012. So ridiculous!

Only shows old stories

The stories in the app are about a year old. That's not a very good thing for a news app!

Nice App

The new version of the app is pretty slick. It does not require login and has a very nice ui. We can share articles to twitter and facebook right from the app!!! Must have for all cal fans.

Good for what it does

This seems like a good app. Its goal: deliver Daily Cal articles. It seems to do this just fine. I don't have regular access to the print version, so I can't compare the app to that. I DID NOT have to sign up for an account to access the info, so I'm not sure why others say you have to. I give only 4 stars, b/c I agree - pics with the main stories would be good.

Go Bears!

Good app to stay in touch with what's going on at CAL. Would prefer headlines to be broken down by days instead of seeing one long list. Also would like pictures added to the news stories.
