Klipsun is an award-winning publication showcasing student journalism and photography
Well-established on campus, this WWU publication is created and managed entirely by student editors, writers, designers, and photographers. I was part of Klipsun’s design team for a year, including as lead designer for two issues, Essence and Changemaker. This year’s run of Klipsun was awarded the regional title of Best Student Magazine from the Society of Professional Journalists.
