Hyde magazine

Hyde student magazine is a student publication presented by Victoria University Student Union. Hyde showcases student-generated content and is designed and edited by students.

Hyde provides a platform for students to express their opinions, challenge their status quo and to provide feedback on matters concerning students, their educational institution, and their futures.

Like all great student publications, we are dependent on student contributions. Our goal is to provide all students with an outlet for their creative content. Submissions that we look for include articles, news, fiction, opinions, comedy, artworks or anything else your heart desires.

Hyde student magazine has a tone that’s serious enough to generate discussion, but light enough to read during lunch.
