Mission

The mission of the Office of Student Publications is to provide an environment that offers experience and study in journalism methods and practices, as well as an open forum for student expression regarding issues which affect their college community.

How you can benefit from the Office of Student Publications

• The Office of Student Publications offers you the opportunity to:
  • enhance writing and communication skills
  • develop interpersonal skills
  • learn computer design skills
  • interact with offices and departments across campus
  • become aware of what is going on in your college community
• This department also provides you with the opportunity to:
  • attend workshops and visit other college journalists
  • learn how to produce a newspaper or yearbook
  • produce newsletters
  • design web pages
  • create your resume
  • take photographs
  • learn darkroom skills

In this evolving technological society, contact between people often begins with an email message. People only know you by what and how you write. Student Publications is a learning laboratory in which students learn to communicate both verbally (through interviewing for stories, discussing current events in the newsroom, debating editorial topics) and through written means (news stories, web design, memos to potential sources.)

If you are interested, contact Student Publications at (254) 968-9056.

(NOTE: If you are interested in working for both The J-TAC and The Grassburr, please include that in the position part of the application.)
