If you're an engaging storyteller, read on!
What We're Looking For
Fresh, creative content that contributes to a well-rounded view of Arcadia’s academic environment, community, and global opportunities. You don't have to be an English major or have professional writing clips to share your Arcadia experiences—we try to represent as many majors, interests, and backgrounds as possible.
New to Arcadia? Even better! First-year students provide a crucial perspective for Because Arcadia's primary audience: prospective students.
What's in It for You
This is a paid, work-from-home position. Work-study eligibility is not required. In addition to being flexible and creative, blogging is a great résumé booster: Students gain practical writing skills and professional experience while working with Because Arcadia editors.
Blogger Responsibilities
Because Arcadia bloggers contribute four written posts (with photography), vlogs, or multimedia projects per semester and work with an editor to strengthen their content. Bloggers are also responsible for pitching post topics and promoting their work on social media.
How to Apply
Send a short cover letter (explaining why you want to blog) and either two writing samples (the more creative, the better) or a vlog sample to retterj@arcadia.edu. Include your major, class year, and hometown in the cover letter. Original photography is also encouraged.
