We're looking for driven and enthusiastic staff and cabinet members. In short, staffers help create the magazine itself whereas cabinet members promote the growth of the community and the magazine in distinct avenues. These include, for example, social media, a podcast, our mentorship program, etc. This distinction has been made in parentheses on each position title.

No experience is required but is recommended. Our publication is created entirely with the time volunteered by our team. If you have some other avenue you would like to help Tea expand in that is not listed below, please feel free to fill out the form as “other”.

You must be a UF undergraduate student to apply.
