Why Join Student Media?

Student Media’s mission is empowering students to exercise their First Amendment rights and creativity through the creation of works that inform, enrich, and entertain the Mason community.

With 10+ unique publications and media groups to choose from, we offer a wide variety of opportunities to apply academic concepts beyond the classroom and build practical skills that can open up new career pathways. We meet students where they are and offer hands-on training to help them find success.

But don’t take our word for it…

CHSS & COMM Class Visits

Student Media was proud to host six in-person office tours and information sessions this fall, welcoming over 130 students from CHSS 101 (First Year Learning Community) and COMM 203 (Intro to Journalism) to learn more about getting involved and meet our team.

Each class watched a short introductory video, took an interactive tour of the Student Media newsroom, and participated in Q&A sessions with student leaders and professional staff.

If you would like to schedule a tour for your class, please email stumedia@gmu.edu indicating your preferred date(s) and we will get back to you with more details.

Special thanks to Eleana Velasco, Erin McSherry, and Brenna Maloney for coordinating the visits, and to all the instructors who used valuable class time to introduce their students to the many opportunities available through our office.

Constitution Day 2023

On September 17, 1787, the delegates to the Constitutional Convention met for the last time to sign the document they had created.

Today, we celebrate this achievement and reflect on what the United States Constitution means to each of us.

To help the Mason community observe Constitution Day 2023, Student Media hosted an event in the Corner Pocket as part of #Welcome2Mason. The event featured free pizza and game play, a prize wheel, trivia questions, a chance to sign the Constitution, and the Preamble Scramble where students solved a giant puzzle by recounting our founding document’s preamble that begins with three important words: “We the People…” Photos by: Wyatt Jones and Josh Rose
