The Student Publications Lab at Midland College offers students hands-on experience using QuarkXpress, Adobe Photoshop, Word and other software to produce the student newspaper and two magazines per year. Most communication students use the lab in conjunction with classroom assignments. All students must enroll in a publications lab.
