Description
Established in 1933, The University News (UNews) is the independent student newspaper of the University of Missouri-Kansas City (UMKC). For over eight decades, UNews has been a vital platform for students and staff passionate about journalism, providing practical experience in reporting, investigating, and writing.
UNews serves not only the UMKC community but also the broader regions of Brookside Plaza, Westport, and Downtown Kansas City, MO. Through its weekly publication, UNews covers a wide range of topics including local and international news, arts and entertainment reviews relevant to the collegiate audience, and in-depth coverage of UMKC sports.
UNews also offers advertising services, acting as a conduit between local and national companies, corporations, and the college demographic. As the primary revenue source for UNews, this advertising arm gives businesses the opportunity to present themselves to a niche market of university students and readers.
With its commitment to educating budding journalists and maintaining its long-standing tradition within UMKC and the wider community, UNews distinguishes itself as an integral part of academic and local life. This blend of educational platform, community service, and business venture makes UNews a unique entity in the industry.
