Highlighting Student Work from Fall 2025

We asked six Toronto Metropolitan University (TMU) student-run publications to send over what they think is their best work from the fall 2025 semester.

We can't wait to see what our students produce this semester!

We start strong with On The Record (external link)  (OTR), the digital newsroom and publication run by final-year undergraduate and graduate Journalism students.

In addition to their regular news schedule, over the past several weeks, the cohort published a special issue (external link)  on climate change and the Greater Toronto Area (GTA).

The Eyeopener continues its decades-old mission as TMU’s independent student newspaper.

Here is a highlight of The Eyeopener’s best work from this semester:

Next, we have the only satire publication at TMU, The Toronto Abnormal School (external link) . They publish print magazines every semester, stories and cartoons online weekly and duds never.

Now we tune into Met Radio (external link) , a community radio station located on TMU’s campus. They air a variety of programming and publish multimedia by TMU students and the community.

Riadh Magazine (external link)  is an online literary magazine that welcomes work from all walks of life. No matter who you are or where you come from, your voice has space here.

Riadh brings readers new perspectives through thoughtful reporting, opinion pieces, features and essays, all while embracing art and poetry. Marginalized voices often go overlooked, and Riadh makes sure they are heard.

We also have CanCulture Magazine (external link) , which was founded in 2011. It is a student-run print and digital magazine dedicated to amplifying stories from underrepresented communities and niche creative spheres within so-called Canada. Reporting through an intersectional, anti-oppressive lens, the magazine continues to build a space for emerging writers and creatives to share and explore stories in a multitude of forms.
