Who we are

A collective voice for campus journalism.

The Union of Campus Journalists (UCJ), Federal University Oye-Ekiti, is an umbrella organization for registered campus press organizations. Its stated aim is to promote campus journalism and protect the interests of its members and the public.

The 2018 drafted constitution outlines objectives including encouraging campus publications, promoting cooperation among press organizations, discouraging press censorship, and recommending publication standards.

Under that draft, membership belongs to duly registered press organizations, rather than individuals.

Document note: Based on the UCJ FUOYE 2018 Draft Constitution, Sections 1–4 and 30. Its current adoption and any later amendments have not been verified.
