ABOUT

Golden Gate Xpress has been SFSU’s student-run newspaper since 1899. Xpress staff members are dedicated to providing an independent and accurate information source for the San Francisco State University campus and the greater Bay Area community.

The Department of Journalism hosts two student-run and managed publications: the Golden Gate Xpress newspaper, which is the daily online news site updated throughout the academic school year, and Xpress Magazine, which posts online throughout the regular school year and publishes a glossy print magazine once a semester. These publications are designed to be lab courses where students can experiment with the latest trends in the field. Faculty advisers are constantly encouraging students to push the envelope, but decisions always rest with the students.

To serve on the publications, students must complete JOUR 300, Reporting, with a final grade of C or higher.
