PRISM

Since 2011, PRISM: UF Honors Magazine has been made by and produced for Honors students at the University of Florida. PRISM strives to educate, entertain and contribute to the development of socially aware and active individuals within the Honors community. The organization provides Honors students opportunities to further develop their talents through creating, writing and critical thinking.

Mission

The mission of PRISM is to develop the Honors community by showcasing various aspects of Honors life through creative and meaningful stories. 

MEMBERSHIP

Students can become involved with PRISM by attending our virtual meetings that will occur weekly on Thursdays at 6:30 pm. No prior knowledge of design and writing is needed, but students should be open to learning! Being a PRISM member allows students to become a part of a community that encourages creativity, writing and critical thinking. Members are expected to attend our weekly meetings (EICs should be notified of conflicts ahead of time) and are required to fulfill the two tasks by the assigned due date (any assortment of writing, editing, and/or graphic design). Membership benefits include a guaranteed print magazine copy each semester and access to print release/club events.

Honors students interested in applying should submit their application forms by September 1, 2023. The application can be found here and on our social media platforms.
