On Dit is the official student publication at Adelaide University, reimagined, and with positions available. Student publications are some of the few spaces in media where you have the freedom to create on your own terms. On Dit exists to create and uplift individual voices. It’s an opportunity to create together, to stay curious, to grow as writers and creatives, and to be each other’s supporters. Want to be part of the student voice? The program provides Adelaide University students with a platform for creative expression, commentary, and cultural reflection, while supporting skill development in writing, editing, design, digital publishing, and collaborative project delivery.
On Dit will publish four editions in 2026, supported by digital and social amplification.
On Dit operates under a non-elected, merit-based editorial model, consistent with best practice in student media delivery. Editorial roles are advertised openly to all Adelaide University students and filled through application and panel interview.
The editorial team consists of four student editors, all equal in status and responsibility, each receiving a $750 honorarium per edition.
