About CMBAM - College Media Business and Advertising Managers

Committed to providing learning and career opportunities through conventions and member communications as well as foster leadership development, strive for the highest standards in industry knowledge and continue to be an advocate for our members. CMBAM began in 1972 with a small group of schools meeting in Chicago each spring to share their knowledge of the college newspaper business. Since its inception, CNBAM’s convention has welcomed and aimed to assist both students and advisers involved in the business and advertising operations of student newspapers. After 8 years in Chicago, with membership growing, in 1980 the annual conference was held in New Orleans. From then on, the convention has moved around the country; from San Diego to Boston, Seattle to Miami, San Antonio to Minneapolis, and almost everywhere in between, the growing convention has moved around the country to accommodate and attract new newspapers. In 1982, CNBAM incorporated in Texas and membership has continued to rise steadily since then. Today, CNBAM has over 125 member schools nationwide. The organization is run by an all-volunteer board of students and advisers from member newspapers who serve staggered terms. People from more than 75 college papers have served on CMBAM’s Board through the organization’s history. Elections for vacant positions are held at the annual convention each year.
