The Record began as a weekly newspaper, with its first issue appearing on September 11, 1872. Almost immediately, it became a home to funny writing (often in verse form), and later, when printing technology made it practical, humorous illustrations. The Record thrived immediately, and by the turn of the century had a wide circulation outside of New Haven—at prep schools, other college towns, and even New York City. As Yale became one of the bellwethers of collegiate taste and fashion (especially for the younger universities looking East), so too The Record became a model—F. Scott Fitzgerald referred to the magazine as one of the harbingers of the new, looser morality of collegians of that time. But it wasn't just laughs The Record was serving up—during the 1920s, The Record ran a popular speakeasy in the basement of its building at 254 York Street (designed by Lorenzo Hamilton and completed in 1928). and Judge. In 1914, J. L. Butler of The Yale Record and Richard Sanger of The Harvard Lampoon created the first annual banquet of the College Comics Association, which drew representatives from 14 college humor magazines to New Haven. The college humor style influenced—or in some cases led directly to—the Marx Brothers, The New Yorker, Playboy, Mad magazine, underground comics, National Lampoon, The Second City, and Saturday Night Live. Mid 20th century
From the 1920s to the 1960s, The Record placed special emphasis on cartooning, which led many of its alumni to work at Esquire magazine and especially The New Yorker. Record cartoonists during this time period included Peter Arno, Reginald Marsh, Clarence Day, Julien Dedman, Robert C. Osborn, James Stevenson, William Hamilton and Garry Trudeau. From 1920 through the 1940s, many Record staffers and alums contributed to College Humor, a popular nationally distributed humor magazine. Additionally, comedy first published in The Record was re printed in national humor magazines like Life and College Humor. By the late 1940s, the magazine's ties to The New Yorker were so strong that designers from that magazine consulted on The Record'''s layout and design. By the 1950s, the Record had established the "Cartoonist of the Year" award, which brought people like Walt Kelly, the creator of Pogo, to New Haven to dine and swap stories with the staff. In the early 1960s, cartoons and comic writing from the magazine were regularly re printed in Harvey Kurtzman's Help!, a satirical magazine that helped launch the careers of Monty Python's Terry Gilliam, R. Crumb, Woody Allen, John Cleese, Gloria Steinem and many others. In the late 1960s, the magazine played an integral role in editor in chief Garry Trudeau's creation of his epochal strip Doonesbury. In addition to editing the Record, Trudeau (and Record chairman Tim Bannon, basis of Doonesbury attorney T. F. Bannon of Torts, Tarts & Torque) organized Record'' events such as a successful Annette Funicello film festival, a Tarzan film festival (with guest Johnny Weissmuller) and a Jefferson Airplane concert featuring Sha Na Na.
История. "The Record" начал свою жизнь как еженедельная газета, первый номер которой вышел 11 сентября 1872 года. Практически сразу же он стал платформой для юмористических текстов (часто в стихотворной форме), а позднее, с развитием печатных технологий, и для юмористических иллюстраций. Журнал быстро завоевал популярность, и к началу века его тираж значительно расширился за пределы Нью-Хейвена – он распространялся в подготовительных школах, других университетских городах и даже в Нью-Йорке. Поскольку Йель стал одним из законодателей вкуса и моды в студенческой среде (особенно для молодых университетов, ориентированных на восточное побережье), "The Record" также стал образцом для подражания. Ф. Скотт Фицджеральд называл журнал одним из предвестников новой, более свободной морали студенчества того времени. Но "The Record" предлагал не только смех: в 1920-х годах журнал содержал популярный спикизи в подвале своего здания по адресу Йорк-стрит, 254 (спроектированного Лоренцо Гамильтоном и завершенного в 1928 году).

В 1914 году Дж. Л. Батлер из "The Yale Record" и Ричард Сэнгер из "The Harvard Lampoon" организовали первый ежегодный банкет Ассоциации студенческих юмористов, собравший представителей 14 студенческих юмористических журналов в Нью-Хейвене. Стиль студенческого юмора оказал влияние – а в некоторых случаях и прямо привел к появлению – братьев Маркс, журнала "The New Yorker", "Playboy", "Mad magazine", андеграундных комиксов, "National Lampoon", "The Second City" и "Saturday Night Live".

С 1920-х по 1960-е годы журнал уделял особое внимание карикатурам, что привело к тому, что многие его выпускники работали в журнале "Esquire" и особенно в "The New Yorker". Среди карикатуристов "Record" этого периода были Питер Арно, Реджинальд Марш, Кларенс Дэй, Джулиен Дедман, Роберт С. Осборн, Джеймс Стивенсон, Уильям Гамильтон и Гарри Трюдо. С 1920 по 1940 год многие сотрудники и выпускники "Record" публиковались в "College Humor" – популярном национальном юмористическом журнале. Кроме того, юмористические произведения, впервые опубликованные в "The Record", перепечатывались в национальных юмористических журналах, таких как "Life" и "College Humor". К концу 1940-х годов связь журнала с "The New Yorker" была настолько сильной, что дизайнеры этого журнала консультировали "The Record" по вопросам оформления и дизайна. К 1950-м годам "Record" учредил премию "Карикатурист года", благодаря которой в Нью-Хейвен приезжали такие люди, как Уолт Келли, создатель "Pogo", чтобы поужинать и поделиться историями с сотрудниками журнала. В начале 1960-х годов карикатуры и юмористические тексты из журнала регулярно перепечатывались в сатирическом журнале "Help!" Харви Курцмана, который помог начать карьеру Терри Гиллиама из "Monty Python", Р. Крамба, Вуди Аллена, Джона Клиза, Глории Стайнем и многих других. В конце 1960-х годов журнал сыграл ключевую роль в создании главным редактором Гарри Трюдо его культового комикса "Doonesbury". Помимо редактирования "Record", Трюдо (и председатель "Record" Тим Бэннон, прототип адвоката Т. Ф. Бэннона из "Torts, Tarts & Torque" в "Doonesbury") организовывал мероприятия "Record", такие как успешный фестиваль фильмов с Аннетт Фуничелло, фестиваль фильмов о Тарзане (с гостем Джонни Вайсмюллером) и концерт Jefferson Airplane с участием Sha Na Na.

Последние годы
1970-е и 1980-е годы среди сотрудников Record известны как "Тёмные века". Экономическая ситуация в Нью-Хейвене была плачевной, и, несмотря на свою внушительную историю, "Record" то приходил в упадок, то саморазрушался, то возрождался многократно в этот период. Созывались редакционные советы, а выпуски публиковались непоследовательно в 1971, 1981, 1983 и 1987 годах. Затем, в 1989 году, студенты Йельского университета Майкл Гербер и Джонатан Шварц окончательно перезапустили "Record". Их более неформальный и иконоборческий вариант "Record" оказался популярным, а пародия на недолговечную спортивную газету "The National" привлекла внимание общенациональных СМИ. Гербер также сформировал временный консультативный совет из выпускников и друзей "Record", в который вошли Марк О'Доннелл, Гарри Трюдо, Роберт Гроссман, Харви Курцман, Арнольд Рот, Иан Фрейзер, Сэм Джонсон и Крис Марсил. Осенью 1992 года сотрудник "Record" Райан Крейг основал популярный йельский таблоид "Rumpus". Хотя "Record" продолжает выпускать печатные выпуски, журнал начал публиковать контент в интернете 1 апреля 2001 года.
