We’ve chosen stories from the past five decades that we’ve only heard about through gen- erations and put them together to give you a closer look at UD’s history. The first issue of Flyer News was published in 1959; however, that was the fifth volume. The UD student-run newspaper was originally named the Dayton Flyer and published its first volume in 1955. For an unknown reason, Flyer News printed two volumes in the 1984-85 school year, which makes the current volume 57. So, although we’re in our 57th volume, we’re celebrating 50 years as Flyer News. Dr. Larry Lain, Flyer News advisor since 1987, has seen how much UD has changed over the years, but also how it has stayed the same. Different events and moments in history have hap- pened, but UD has kept the same values and unique traditions since 1955. More than any other organization on campus, Lain has seen the changes directly within Flyer News and how it has improved over the past few decades. “There’s been a growing sense of professionalism,” Lain said. “That feeling has always been there for the top two or three people on the staff, but as time goes on, it’s a feeling that goes much deeper down into the staff.” Please enjoy taking a look into the past 50 years of UD in print and on our Web site, www.fly- ernews.com.
