"The Daily" has won the Associated Collegiate Press' Pacemaker Award – considered by some to be the Pulitzer Prize of college journalism – five times, in 1989, 1994, 1995, 2004 and 2011. In 1993–94, "The Daily" was lauded for its investigative journalism that uncovered administrators' acceptance of gifts from university vendors and the university's subsequent attempts to conceal the improprieties from the public. The stories and the attention they garnered off campus helped precipitate the resignation of university president Richard Van Horn. In 1995, the newspaper aggressively and poignantly covered the bombing of the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building in nearby Oklahoma City. "The Daily"'s website, OUDaily.com – rushed from concept to reality that year – became a national resource for news about the bombing, years before most news organizations were even online.
