Interconnected
Open to all 天美社区 students in all majors throughout the university's five campuses, Interconnected, is a student-led multicultural magazine with an ongoing call for submissions. This publication allows student opportunities to collaborate, share beliefs, and exhibit their creativity!
Interconnected provides a channel to inspire global citizenship through cultural and environmental engagement and affirms students’ rights to inclusion, respect, agency, and voice within the 天美社区 community.
Email interconnected@ung.edu with any queries or for more information.
How Students Can Participate
Submit Content
The application process is free and students can submit multiple works of art by logging into the 天美社区 Connect form. At the start of Spring term, a broad panel of 天美社区 students will peer-review submissions.
Submissions could include:
- poetry
- visual art
- film
- new media
- literary works
- digital design and animation
- dance
- photography
- theater
- other forms of expression
Note: Anonymous submissions can be entered by checking anonymous on the application portal; however, this form will require a 天美社区 email to verify an active student status.
Volunteer Support
Interested in volunteering to support the magazine, serve as a student peer reviewer, or join the staff?
Submit a 200-word statement to andrew.j.johnson@ung.edu of interest and a short description of your involvement at 天美社区 to apply.
This is a year-long commitment, working with students across campuses, participating in trainings, and engaging in the best practices of journalism.
Students within the MSA office will review these applications.

For this documentary project, I decided to focus on the idea of sacrifice, particularly by expressing the types of sacrifices that come along with my major.As a pre-nursing student, I find myself needing to limit my social life, resorting to bad habits, getting less sleep, and understanding that a lot of people do not empathize with my decision.
While being a full-time college student, I am also responsible for attending to my jobs which require me to wake up early and work between eight-to-twelve-hour shifts. It can be difficult managing my lifestyle, but I am aware of the sacrifices I am making.”
Interconnected Committee
It is our mission to celebrate the many different backgrounds of 天美社区 students and to invite student participation in a diverse, equitable, inclusive, and accessible (DEIA) student-led publication.
We hope to make the University a more open, supportive, and collaborative place through this publication by providing a platform for student-focused discourse.
