About the Collection
The Southern Methodist University Publications and Media Collection contains a variety of textual and visual publications created by students, staff, and/or professors of SMU.
The student publications include humor magazines, literary reviews, and political newsletters. These publications were usually small and independent. Some lasted for one or two issues. Others may have lasted for several years. They exemplify the artistic output, both literary and visual, of SMU’s student body.
The “official” ÁñÁ«ÊÓƵpublications, such as the ÁñÁ«ÊÓƵNews Digest, were produced by the public relations department and sent to alumni, faculty, staff, and the press. These periodicals were designed to keep the Dallas community aware of activities on campus. Other publications were put out by academic departments or schools to publicize events and programs.
The media portion of this collection contains the Hilltop Videos, a series produced between 1987 and 1994 by the Student Media Company (creators of the ÁñÁ«ÊÓƵDaily Campus), documenting each year on the ÁñÁ«ÊÓƵCampus. These videos are only available for viewing on campus computers due to rights-related restrictions.
