EXTRA! EXTRA! READ ALL ABOUT IT!

If the title didn't give it away, we are going to talk about newspapers and magazines! You may be wondering "What in the world do newspapers and magazines have to do with being a student at York University?". Well, did you know that York students operate more than 10 newspapers, magazines, and  publications? Yea, it is quite a lot.


With all these publications there is so many opportunities for you to share your poems, your ideas, drawings, etc! Even if your not into that, there is always something sweet to read in between classes, on the bus, or wherever you go and need to kill some time!


I've come up with a list of majority of the newspapers and magazines that we have on campus. A great things about having so many is that they all share different interests, focus on different things, and you will find different opinions in them:
