UC Berkeley's official yearbook, published since 1875, Blue and Gold documents campus culture, events, and student life each year. Members join one of five teams: Copy (writing and interviewing), Design (Adobe InDesign/Photoshop spreads), Photo (shooting and editing), Marketing (social media and ads), or Tech (web apps and tools). The club holds a 1.5-hour general meeting weekly, with team-specific work on top. Members build real creative portfolios while contributing to a publication students and families actually buy.
