The newspaper has four main editorial sections -- news, opinion, sports, and The Guide, a weekly arts and entertainment review.
Students started The Hoya in 1920 as the first publication that targeted the entire community, as opposed to past newspapers that were specific to a single school. In its earlier days, coverage focused primarily on Georgetown's athletic teams, but beginning in the 1940s shifted its coverage to campus events. In 1987, The Hoya began publishing twice-weekly, and in 1998, it launched its Web site www.thehoya.com.
Editors are elected at the end of the fall and spring semesters and the business and advertising managers are hired by the Board of Directors. The Editorial Board is chaired by the Editor in Chief and is responsible for producing the staff editorials. The Board of Directors oversees the financial well-being of the newspaper and the Board of Editors is responsible for the editorial aspects of the newspaper.
The current editor-in-chief is Michael Kurdyla.
