About Us

Who We Are

First established in 1925 as The Interlude, the USF Encounter strives to write educational and persuasive information regarding the university, city and world. The student led and student written publication comes in a printed monthly magazine as well as an online platform.

Our Goal

The USF Encounter is published by the Communication and Media Arts (CMMA) students of the University of St. Francis. We aim to provide the university community with compelling news, feature, entertainment, commentary, and sports content through at least 3 issues each semester.
