The University Star is a multi-platform student-run campus media outlet that prints a newspaper once a week, runs a digital news website and mobile app 24 hours a day, sends an email newsletter twice a week to more than 60,000 subscribers, produces a news program once a month and serves a growing campus community of more than 40,000 students in the greater San Marcos area.

As with many news organizations, advertising is no longer a reliable source of revenue. As a result, we have pivoted to holding events like our annual Star Stories live storytelling event and reaching out to supporters like you. We couldn’t do it without you.

Your contribution to The University Star will support:

•  Student editor stipends
•  Website & app hosting fees
•  Technology needs
•  General operational costs

Every gift makes a difference, no matter the size. Thank you for your support!
