Description

For more than 150 years, Indiana University Bloomington's student-produced newspaper, the Indiana Daily Student, has grown and changed with the times and the school. Generations of student journalists, armed with notepads, cameras and a tireless devotion, have pursued both local and national stories since the newspaper's debut in 1867. In Indiana Daily Student: 150 Years of Headlines, Deadlines and Bylines, editors and IDS alumni Rachel Kipp, Amy Wimmer Schwarb and Charles Scudder piece together behind-the-scenes remembrances from former IDS reporters and photographers, newsroom images from throughout the decades and a curated collection of notable IDS front pages. From coverage of the end of World War I to the selection of Herman B Wells as IU's president to the Hoosiers' national basketball championship titles to the terrorist attacks of Sept. 11, 2001, the IDS has chronicled news from a student perspective. Today, it serves as a training ground for fledgling journalists who have gone on to be monumental voices in American and global media. Remembrances from some of the most prominent journalists to emerge from the IDS are included here: among them, publisher and journalism philanthropist Nelson Poynter; National Public Radio television critic Eric Deggans; and Pulitzer Prize winners Ernie Pyle, Thomas French and Melissa Farlow. While at IU, students at the IDS built and maintained beloved traditions they continue to share today, all while offering a full spectrum of coverage for their readers. The first book on the paper's history, Indiana Daily Student offers a comprehensive celebration of the newspaper's achievements, as well as historic front pages, photographs and personal narratives from current and former IDS journalists.

Foreword
THE IDS, HELD UP TO LIGHT
More than four dozen color slides live in a shoebox on a top shelf of my laundry room. They were shot by Jay Hagenow, the IDS photo editor during my stint as editor in chief. In a chaotic college newsroom, he was a friendly, unflappable force, even in my haggard final days as its leader.
I was tired by then, resigned to the idea that I was a lame duck whose lofty goals for the semester would not be realized. Jay s slides contain clues that my tenure was limping toward its end: The Salvador Dali poster I hung carefully in my office before classes started dangles from a single thumbtack. The sports staff plays trash-can basketball; midway through the semester, I had confiscated a football after their antics perturbed the campus desk.
In one shot, I edit a story from a computer positioned not on Ernie Pyle s rolltop throne-the workspace of honor awarded to every IDS editor in chief of my era-but atop a standard metal office desk. The caption for this photo should read: Ready to relinquish.
In Jay s slides we consult over stories, hash out budget lines, pore over copy, hug, steal one another s fries, laugh, nap on the couch, proof pages, select photos, call sources, eat too many Pizza Express breadsticks, put out a paper. Yet they document more than the everyday goings-on of a college newsroom. In these images, our tasks appear elevated. The scenes are lush with color and depth. Even the dingy, earth-toned textured wallpaper-remember the olive and brown vertical stripes, 1970s, 80s and 90s IDSers?-appears warm and multidimensional.
Perhaps the preserved vibrance of slide film manages this feat. Or maybe the vitality is released by holding the frames up to light to reveal their magic.
When my co-editors and I launched this book project, we didn t know which version of the IDS story would emerge. Would the stories told from memory be Kodachrome, with colors more rich than real? Would our tendency to romanticize the IDS soften its edges like Vaseline on a lens? Could a bunch of nostalgic alumni-not just the editors, but the more than two dozen other former IDSers who contributed to this project-be trusted to get their own story right?
We found our answer at the IU Archives. Beyond the original editions of the newspaper itself-nearly 20,000 published since the first in 1867-the preserved documents from IDS history are sparse, made up of just three bankers boxes of materials. Packed within them, though, is the raw and honest story the IDS has told about itself from the beginning.
Among the treasures found in this repository are page after page of daily critiques of the paper, such as Department of Journalism chair John Stempel s assessment of a September 1938 issue. The band story on page one smacks of propaganda, he wrote. It might have been handled a little less baldly. I m for the band, but. Also among the files are handwritten reader notes the IDS staff chose to save, such as the one scribbled on the front page of a 1954 edition: It is a disgrace to allow such a paper as this to go out. And this page is a fair example of what the Student has been for some time.
