Background - A Zine about Students as Partners (aka Wolverzine):
What if we approached higher education as a partnership between students, faculty, and staff? Perhaps there are partnerships on campus, right now, wherein students, faculty, and staff are collaborating as researchers or teachers or artists on a project together. Just as important as these collaborations is a publication to showcase them. So, we started a zine (zeen).

• Web design (some paid training hours available)
• Working with media, social media, image editing, and/or graphic design. Experience with InDesign or other graphic design layout software, Photoshop, Canva, Instagram, Facebook, etc.
