George Gallup, creator of the Gallup poll, served as editor of ''The Daily Iowan'' in the early 1920s. Jason Brummond has been the newspaper's publisher since 2017, when the previous publisher, William Casey, retired. Casey had served in the post since 1976 and is credited with starting the newspaper's scholarship program for talented future journalists, who have since worked at news agencies such as The Associated Press, ''The New York Times'', ''The Wall Street Journal'', ''St. Petersburg Times'', ''The Dallas Morning News'', ''The Star Tribune'', ''The Des Moines Register'', ''ESPN'', ''USA Today,'' ''SPIN Magazine'' and ''The Times-Picayune''. The scholarship program began in 1987. Each year, up to four high school seniors are selected for the four-year scholarship. Provided by Wikipedia
