No experience is necessary. At all. Seriously.
The Gazette relies heavily on its contributors to publish high quality content four times weekly. We are always looking for students to help in every section, from writing and photography to graphics and web design.
Visit us anytime in Room 263 in the University Community Centre and we will happily show you the ins and outs of working at The Gazette. The time commitment is up to you. If you’re burdened down with school work or have other commitments, no one will pressure you to pick up assignments; there is no “contribution quota.” All we ask is that if you do take an assignment, please get it done – our editors are relying on that story to be in the paper.
Internship program
Find out more information about our internship programs in news, A&E, sports, photography, graphics or web. Interns dedicate one day per week to being in the office starting around 9:30 am.
We’re always accepting new volunteers, so don’t hesitate to drop by the office at any point during the term!
The Gazette’s graphic and web departments are looking for designers! Build a portfolio while designing for print and the web. Room for growth to graphics and web editor positions.
Experience
