The Impressions journal is a compilation of work submitted by undergraduate students from the Communication Studies program at York University. The journal includes a variety of research based papers, creative papers, and other creative works such as photographs and poems.

This journal is the first of its kind at York University, it is entirely student run with the guidance and expertise of Professor MacLennan. The intention is for Communication Students to be recognized for their contribution to the world of academia through their published work.

The future success of this academic Communication journal is in the hands of the students. The goal is to keep it running on an annual basis. Recreating this journal annually will allow for new students to Communication Studies to submit their work as well. Having work published in Impressions gives students something to take away besides theoretical knowledge gained at York, perhaps something that may be used for their portfolio.
