Invest in Student Journalism
Cal Poly Pomona’s award-winning, student-run newspaper The Poly Post is the voice of the campus community. Through a weekly e-newsletter, a monthly print edition and the annual Poly Pulse magazine, our student journalists report on the stories that matter to more than 27,000 students and 2,400 faculty and staff. Every issue and broadcast segment reflects their dedication to truth, creativity and professionalism while preparing them for successful careers in modern journalism.
Your support helps us take The Poly Post newsroom to the next level. Donations will fund upgrades to our video recording space, including industry-standard cameras, lighting, screens and a robotic teleprompter system. These improvements will allow students to produce professional-quality video reports and broadcast segments, giving them the tools and experience they need to compete nationally and launch successful media careers.
Give and continue the proud legacy of student journalism at Cal Poly Pomona!
