In the Fall of 1913, the student body of the then-San Diego Normal School voted to begin publishing a four (4) page weekly campus newspaper.[2] The first edition premiered Nov. 26, 1913, as a four-page tabloid, under the name of the Normal News Weekly.[2] In 1921, the paper was renamed the Paper Lantern.[2] In 1960, the paper shifted to daily publication, becoming The Daily Aztec.[2]
Although previously connected with the SDSU journalism department, The Daily Aztec is now part of the Associated Students of San Diego State University, which runs paper through its Communication Authority Board (CAB).[2] The Daily Aztec does not receive funding from the school or the Associated Students, rather all of the paper's revenue is generated from advertising.[2] The CAB is composed of students, faculty and staff from SDSU and has both permanent and annual members; the CAB hires the editor in chief, approves the paper's budgets, and is responsible for ensuring that paper follows approved advertising and editorial policies.[2]
