About Magna

Magna Publications, Inc. is a well-known communications company that publishes higher education newsletters and manages onsite and audio conferences. Since William Haight founded the company in 1972, it has grown to employ a staff of 31 in the production of ten newsletters, three national conferences, numerous audio conferences, and a business magazine.

Magna Publications, Inc. has achieved a leadership position in higher education newsletter publishing. The newsletters are typically published monthly or semi-monthly and focus on specific aspects of teaching or administration. These products carry no advertising and are sold on an annual subscription basis. Titles include The Teaching Professor, Academic Leader, Magna’s Campus Legal Briefing, Recruitment and Retention, Campus Events Professional, Distance Education Report, Online Classroom, Edutech, and Community College Leader. The original newsletter, National On-Campus Report, now renamed to Student Affairs Leader, is still popular after more than three decades.

In 1999 Magna acquired the National Conference on Student Leadership, a twice-a-year conference for student leaders and campus administrators. In 2001 a third (West Coast) conference was added, and annual attendance now totals over 2,000.

Magna also has a magazine division which produces a business magazine for the Madison, Wisconsin area, and a number of other magazines and books in various fields.
