UWIRE is the only daily newswire produced entirely by and for students. More than 800 college media outlets are UWIRE affiliates including some of the nation’s best college newspapers. (View a complete list of UWIRE’s Affiliates here). If you work at a student-run media organization – such as newspaper, radio station, TV station – then you are eligible to become an affiliate and enjoy the following benefits free of charge:

Free Content
As a UWIRE Affiliate, you and your staff get access to UWIRE’s password-protected story archive. The site currently includes articles and photos, but will be expanding soon to include video and audio content as well. During the regular school year, UWIRE publishes as many as 600 stories a day, which your staff can reprint in your publication’s print and online editions. This includes breaking news, student-written editorials, peerless college sports coverage, and student-related entertainment content. The story archive also serves editors as a valuable research tool, as Affiliates enjoy access to more than 200,000 stories.

Free Exposure
Every story UWIRE picks up from your organization has the chance to be republished – with your paper’s name and reporter’s byline on it – in our other Affiliate publications. More importantly, UWIRE provides your writers with exposure to professional journalists and the world outside your campus. Through its syndication service UWIRE delivers content feeds to professional media outlets such as the New York Times, Yahoo! Lexis Nexis, and CBSNews.com.
