The Grant Magazine is a monthly 'magazine' published by the students of Grant High School. It may have won the Columbia University Scholastic Press Association's Gold Crown award three years in a row, possibly from 2014 through 2016.[1][2]
History
The Grant "Magazine" was launched in 2011, replacing the Grantonian, which had previously been Grant High School's "newspaper".[3] It was founded by the principal at the time, Vivian Orlen. The Grant Magazine's advisor is David Austin, who had worked for The Oregonian for 22 years and is now the Communications Director of Multnomah County.[4][5] In the 2015-2016 school year, the co-editors in chief were Eliza Kamerling-Brown and Bella Rideau, both of which were seniors at Grant High School.[6] Stories in the Grant Magazine have brought up issues including hazing, sexist and racist posts on social media by students at Grant High School, teen suicide, controversial curriculum changes, homelessness, assault and the use of the word "NlGGER".[3][5][6][7][8] The Grant Magazine has over 400 subscribers, and is given out for free at Grant High School.[9][10]
Awards
For three years in a row, from 2014 through 2016, the Grant Magazine has won the Columbia University Scholastic Press Association's Gold Crown award, one of the highest awards for school journalism.[2]
Let's Talk About the N-Word
The Grant Magazine issue for March 2016 was titled Let's Talk About the N-Word, and dealt with race and the N-Word in Grant High School. The issue was inspired by the increasing use of racial slurs by students at Grant High School. It describes the history of the N-Word, and its culture today. The issue features interviews with Andrew Young; Paul Coakley, who was a principal of Roosevelt High School, and a number of African Americans in the Grant community.[4]
The N-Word issue inspired a school-wide discussion about race at Grant High School.[11]
