Cardinal Connection

The Cardinal Connection is Wheeling Jesuit's campus newspaper. The student-run monthly publication acts as a forum for the whole university community and provides information concerning the college.

Students fill the positions of editor-in-chief, managing editor, sports columnist, copy editor, assistant news editor, business manager, circulation manager, promotions manager, photographer, and staff writer.

The Cardinal Conection is a wonderful way of getting involved in university activities while learning what is involved in producing such a publication. It is ideal for English and Professional Communications majors to practice reporting, photography, editing, graphic design, page layout, marketing, and management in an actual production environment. Check out the archives to see our recent publications.  

The Jewelweed is Wheeling Jesuit's creative and literary magazine. Students, faculty, and administration are invited to submit works of short fiction, poetry, photography, and ink sketches for publication in the magazine. Jewelweed, an annual publication, holds a contest for students in which a panel of judges chosen by the staff vote on the best work in each category. Winners are awarded a $25 prize, and are invited to present their works in an annual presentation when the magazine is distributed. In addition to the magazine and presentation, Jewelweed publishes a newsletter, the Touch-Me-Not, and hosts readings by famous authors and creative workshops.

The Manifest is Wheeling Jesuit's yearbook. It is completely student run, with a student editor chosen through an interview process.

Getting involved in the production of the Manifest is the ultimate way of getting involved in campus life. Students put together a keepsake of each year that every full-time student receives.

Opportunities for English majors with the Manifest include editing, caption writing, and photography.
