2021-22 Year Representatives

Are you interested in getting more involved with Carleton’s j-school? Do you love planning events and building community?

If so, JSOC will soon be looking for our 2021-2022 year representatives. We’re hoping to find a group of amazing people with all kinds of different backgrounds, experiences and expertise!

JSOC welcomes and celebrates the participation of people of any race, colour, sex, gender, disability, affectional or sexual orientation, gender identity, ethnicity, national origin, age, or socioeconomic status. This year, we are specifically looking to highlight these diversities through the lens of both the School of Journalism and the industry as a whole.

Additionally, in light of the university’s decision to move many of our fall semester classes online, we’re looking for j-schoolers who are willing and able to navigate this unprecedented time by continuing to build community virtually.

Help make your year’s Carleton journalism experience even better through JSOC!

BUT WAIT… WHAT EXACTLY IS A YEAR REP?

Year representatives, or reps as we like to call them, are journalism students picked by JSOC executives to represent their classes.

They fulfill the duty of organizing and hosting events for their year to promote community building! And with the way the world is at the moment, community is needed more than ever for students.

Each year typically has two to five representatives who work as a team, so if you think it’d be too much to handle on your own, you don’t have to worry about that!
