About The Daily Tar Heel | 2025-2026
The Daily Tar Heel is the student newspaper at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and has served the community since it was founded on February 23, 1893. The nonprofit organization, which was incorporated in 1989 as a separate legal entity from UNC, stopped taking student fees in 1993 and has since been funded by advertising revenue, thus making it both fiscally and editorially independent.
