The Red & Black Publishing Company Inc

The Red & Black has the dual missions of training students for future careers in the news industry while providing our community with reliable, independent news and information.

Our student-run newsroom serves the University of Georgia and Athens communities with daily news at redandblack.com and a weekly newspaper, The Red & Black, which was founded in 1893. 

Every year more than 250 students participate in our organization, getting hands-on experience in community journalism and newsroom leadership. Every week, we serve more than 75,000 readers with online and print news, offering reliable, free news for the UGA and Athens communities.

We receive no funding from the university and support ourselves through advertising sales (led by a student ad manager), special events and donations. 

All donations go directly to our mission of serving and training students.
