History The Cavalier Daily printed its first issue under the name College Topics on January 15, 1890. It continued publication under this name until 1948. In 1924, College Topics began printing six days a week, as opposed to twice a week before, making the paper a daily. However, the next year the printer suffered a catastrophic fire, and the newspaper alternated between two and three publication days a week until 1940.

The admission of women and blacks to the University of Virginia beginning in the early 1970s changed the face of the paper as well as the university community. The increasing diversity of the community challenged what is often characterized as the preexisting “good old boy” attitude at both the school and The Cavalier Daily, resulting in a staff that became more motivated and ambitious. The first woman member of the Managing Board, Mary Love, was elected business manager in 1973, and the first woman editor-in-chief, Marjorie Leedy, followed in 1976. During this time, Managing Board races became highly competitive, and the paper became more journalistically serious. In 1973, when all Managing Board races were heavily contested, the losers of them left The Cavalier Daily to form the Declaration, a weekly tabloid-format publication that exists to this day. In 1976, The Cavalier Daily became the first college publication to receive a Robert F. Kennedy Memorial Journalism Award. The University of Virginia (also called U.Va. ...

Media Board crisis The University’s Media Board, a body comprised of students and supervised by the University's Board of Visitors, was founded in 1976 to regulate on-Grounds media, but The Cavalier Daily ignored it as a matter of practice. In April 1979, the confrontation came to a head when University President Frank Hereford presented the paper with the ultimatum of accepting the Media Board and the Board of Visitors’ authority or being forced to leave its offices. The newspaper refused to acknowledge administrative supervision, and The Cavalier Daily was evicted from its offices on April 4, 1979, continuing to publish from rented space in the offices of Charlottesville’s Daily Progress. 1976 (MCMLXXVI) was a leap year starting on Thursday. ...

Recent history & the CD today The fallout of the Media Board crisis led to the 1983 formation of the Cavalier Daily Alumni Association, with the stated purpose to support the newspaper and aid it in times of need. In 1979, the University saw the creation of another student-run newspaper, the University Journal, which originally formed in opposition to what many saw as the left-wing editorial stances of The Cavalier Daily. An intense rivalry between the two newspapers for news and advertising grew as the University Journal published three times weekly in the 1980s and then four times weekly beginning in 1991. Amid significant debt, the University Journal cut back production starting in 1996 and ceased to exist by 1998. Since that time, The Cavalier Daily has been the only newspaper at the University of Virginia. For the Smashing Pumpkins song, see 1979 (song). ...
