Media Organization: The Black Sheep

Company Description

Founded in 2009, our first publication called The Booze News, was printed on computer paper in the library and handed out like The Federalist Papers at 2 a.m. around campus at The University of Illinois. People wanted more, and yadda yadda yadda we rebranded to The Black Sheep and expanded to more schools on a mission to change campus-based media for the better.

When it comes to editorial, we believe in creating structured teams where students receive feedback, grow as writers, and develop the skills to crush it after they graduate. We believe in thinking outside the box and writing articles that have a comedic impact. Unlike other collegiate publications, we don’t just let any jabroni with a keyboard get published.

We’re a company that cares about the teams we build and the content we produce. And beers. We also care about beers. Want to be a part of the fun? Apply now.

Job Description

In short, student writers write entertaining, social, and above all humorous content for The Black Sheep across all platforms. Writers will be expected to contribute one article (approximately 500 words) each week. Beyond writing, writers are to attend content meetings held every week. This is an unpaid position.

Time Commitment:
Writers should estimate spending 2-4 hours per week writing and attending the weekly meeting. These requirements will be higher if you are applying for internship credit to ensure you meet your school’s requirements.
