Fresh. Inviting. Innovative. These are just a few descriptions that encapsulate the University of Calgary's premier publication, U magazine. U magazine is charting new territory in the city by linking the university to the greater Calgary community. The magazine features the people who make the university what it is – the students, staff, professors and its alumni – and the issues that make the university relevant in the lives of Calgarians. U magazine will provide readers with well-written, approachable content in the form of news and research highlights, profiles, indepth features and opinion columns, all designed to reflect the university's momentum, energy, and excitement. U magazine will be of interest to Calgarians interested in their education and engaged in their community.

U magazine will be published three times a year and distributed complimentary to approximately 100,000 alumni, students, donors, civic leaders, and community members.
