Border Beat is an online student-run newspaper which focuses on issues relating to the U.S.-Mexico border. The publication is based out of the University of Arizona School of Journalism and is run by a team of 18 journalism seniors and an advisor.

Border Beat investigates and explores the nooks and crannies of life on the border, as experienced by living in one of the largest border cities in the United States. Border Beat covers a wide range of topics, ranging from education, health and business to sports, food and entertainment.

Using multimedia to enhance the articles, Border Beat seeks to give people an understanding that the border is much more than just a fence or a line drawn on a map. The border area is more than the place that two countries meet; it is a place which combines two cultures.


This publication is published from January-May and August-December.Each semester, a new team of students joins the award-winning publication and makes it their own.
