After a rigorous application process, the News is pleased to announce its inaugural Editorial Board: an institutional body — which does not represent the entire institution — that will author opinion pieces on campus and city issues. Led by the Editor in Chief and Opinion Editors, the Board is composed of sixteen undergraduate students who represent a variety of backgrounds, interests and perspectives. We will publish editorials with the approval of at least eleven members, and groups of three or more members can author dissenting pieces as relevant. Read more from our primer here. 

You can reach the Board at editorialboard@yaledailynews.com.
