To create a new kind of college newspaper by involving award-winning journalists in the creation of an open-source software platform
Student editors at the UCLA Bruin will create online publishing software geared to mobile editing. College journalists then will be able to use the content management system to remotely assign and edit stories, videos and photos for online college sites. Also, readers will use it to submit their own content and communicate with one another.
