Student Media at JSU: Newspaper, Radio, and Yearbook
Students are encouraged to get pre-professional experience in the department by becoming writers or photographers for The Chanticleer student newspaper and the Mimosa yearbook. Students may also work on-the-air shifts at the campus radio station, WLJS-FM.
 JSU's award-winning student newspaper, The Chanticleer, offers students the opportunity to get hands-on experience. Students serve as Editor in Chief, section editors, photographers, and advertising staffers. Not only do staff members get reporting and editing experience, but the paper's desktop publishing system is a great way to prepare for a field that is computer-dependent.
Adviser: Mike Stedham.
