We’re seeking editorial leaders with a strong voice and who are passionate about college to launch a College Magazine chapter on campus.
College Magazine is the ultimate guide to campus life, featuring the highest quality student-written articles on academics, career advice, relationships and health. As a chapter editor, you are the visionary of College Magazine content for your campus, working closely with a team of student writers.
Chapter Editor Training
Our chapter editors begin with a four-week training program to learn the ins and outs of online journalism while building their portfolio. Editors learn how to sharpen their editing skills through co-editing assignments and team critiques. Our editors lead by example, offer honest feedback and encourage open communication with their writers in order to continually raise the bar for quality writing. We also connect our editors to professionals in the field through our Google Hangout guest speaker series, helping them build their network through College Magazine.
Our graduates have gone on to careers at Mashable, Seventeen Magazine, Allure, Redbook, Rachel Ray Magazine, and Washingtonian.
