Welcome to Student Publications!
Student Publications
The Department of Student Publications provides students an opportunity for learning. It also provides the university at-large with a vehicle for discourse and dissemination of information through several communication channels. The department employs a student staff that is responsible for producing The J-TAC online campus newspaper and the Grassburr yearbook, as well as the Student Handbook. The department also coordinates the Division of Student Life’s Internet presence. Students gain experience in modern journalism’s best practices and accepted techniques as well as print and new media production. Students gain marketable skills which they use to publish news, features and editorial opinion on topics relevant to the Tarleton State University community via these publications.
The Director of Student Publications bears the responsibility for compiling the Student Handbook, including all departmental information and updates to policies and procedures. The handbook is available online at The Division of Student Life Web site.
The Department of Student Publications has the added responsibility of designing and maintaining an Internet presence for the Division of Student Life and consults with division leaders regarding direction for its subordinate department’s Web presence.
