WORK WITH US.

Interested in submitting a photo essay, interviewing members of Nonprofits, and keeping AU student government or administration accountable?

At AWOL, we’re more than a team, we’re a family. We encourage each other to find stories and persist against all odds. If you already know you want to be part of our team, go ahead and fill out our staff application. Applications for the spring 2025 semester close January 24.

Any AU student, at any time, is welcome to submit a piece to one of AWOL’s sections: campus life, culture, health, politics or the district. No prior journalism experience is required.

AWOL is also working to expand our online and multimedia presence, which means we’re always looking for new photographers, graphic designers and videographers.

One of the unique elements of our student media organization is that we have our very own podcasts called Ripped From The Wall and The Hum. We also have a multimedia department that works on producing short-form documentary style videos.

Full-time staff members attend weekly meetings in addition to writing articles, taking photos or other department assignments.

Have questions or want more information? An editor will contact you with more information about getting involved if you filled out the application above. You can follow up on your application by emailing [email protected]
