Familiarize yourself with the policy manual on legacystudentmedia.com. You are responsible for all the information there and to abide by the rules and guidelines.

Press Pass
You will get a press pass at the beginning of the year. It should be worn at all times. It is not a “get into things free” pass – unless you are working. It is also not a parking lot pass. Don’t abuse it or you lose it.

Social Media
