THE PORTFOLIOS MEDIA & COMMUNICATIONS

The QUTLS Media and Communications portfolio is behind all of the publications and social media that you engage with, just like this Guide! We would like to officially warmly welcome you to Law School, and to the QUTLS! This section of the Guide will introduce you to the different activities of all the portfolios, and how you can get involved from day dot.

So, you want to know more about getting involved?

In the pages below, you will read about what social events are fast-approaching, what educational events you can attend and network at, what competitions you can channel your inner Elle Woods or Harvey Spectre in, how you can sing and dance your heart out on stage, and what sports you can throw yourself into. But there’s something missing. You want more.

Look no further, because the Media and Communications team not only keeps you connected and up-to-date on the happenings of all other areas of the QUTLS, but gives you the chance to be published!

As a QUTLS member, you can sign up to our newsletter that will deliver career opportunities, upcoming social, educational and sports events, and study motivation and hacks (especially around exam time)!

We also have our various social media channels provided at the end of this Guide, so make sure you follow all of those!

The publications that you can submit work to are:

THE GAVEL

The Gavel is the biannual QUTLS student publication that gives a voice to our members! The issues are themed to give you a prompt, but if you have an article that you are burning to write, we accept work from outside the theme, as long as it is relevant to law students. Submitting to The Gavel also earns you 10% all of our merchandise! Have a read of our previous issues to see what content we have published in the past.

Submissions for The Gavel can be submitted to director.mediacommunication@qutlawsociety.com.
