Whether you saw us at Clubfest or not, it’s not too late to sign up for Slope Media Group. What’s that, you ask? We’re Buzzfeed for Cornell. We’re Media with an Edge. We’re Cornell’s biggest multi-media platform. We have a wide range of teams from magazine, marketing, photography, and music, to layout and web design, social media, TV, and more. So here are the five main reasons why you should join Slope today:
- There’s no application
All you gotta do to join Slope is show up- it’s that simple. I don’t know about you, but we were tired of the stress and anxiety that students need to face in order to join extracurriculars. Leave the stress for class and prelims, because this club is open to everyone.
2. You can write annyyyyything you want
At our weekly mag meetings, writers pitch ideas and flesh them out together. No matter what your idea is, it’s yours to write. We’re big proponents of Freedom of Speech and we practice it in our mag department.
3. You can be in as many departments as you want
Interested in writing AND design? No problem. Slope has something for everyone and we highly encourage members to participate in multiple different departments. We’re a collaborative team so there’s a ton of overlap and teamwork.
4. You’ll meet new people
Because the club is welcome to everyone, Slope attracts a variety of different students. It’s a really easy way to meet new people from different backgrounds and who are studying multiple disciplines. I often feel inspired from the creativity that so many members of Slope have to offer, and I’ve made countless friends from the club in the past two years.
5. Launch Party!!!
At the end of each semester, we launch our biannual Print Magazine and throw a big party to celebrate. We have food, Wegmans cake (if you know, you know), music, a photo booth and of course, the new Slope Magazine.
Come to our info session on September 24th to hear more and join the greatest club on campus!
