ABOUT US

“Blushing as coyly as any schoolgirl, and with the excited fears and hopes of a debutante or a Mexican insurrecto before a firing squad, we lay this first edition of The Hoya at the feet of the student body, and retreat to a safe distance to observe the effects”

— Joseph R. Mickler Jr. (CAS ’20), The Hoya’s first editor-in-chief, in the paper’s debut issue on Jan. 14, 1920.

Many years after Mickler's first issue, The Hoya is now a Georgetown tradition, publishing twice weekly — on Tuesdays and Fridays — and online regularly. As Georgetown's newspaper of record, The Hoya serves the communities of Georgetown University and Washington, D.C. In addition to The Hoya's main section, The Guide, an arts and lifestyle magazine, is published alongside Friday's issue. Throughout the year, The Hoya also publishes a number of special issues, including the New Student Orientation and Commencement issues, previews of the basketball and lacrosse seasons, and its comprehensive New Student Guide. Staffed by over 100 students, The Hoya hopes to secure full financial independence from the university.
