The Center for Excellence in Communication Arts has launched this journal Communication and Social Change which features research reflecting both historical and contemporary perspectives of how media frame and influence social and political agendas, while providing frameworks in which to teach, learn and study issues of social change.
Communication Arts Forum promotes scholarly and professional exchanges that address diverse interests of educators, researchers, practitioners and policymakers engaged in the fields of mass media, speech communication, and theatre arts. Articles providing innovative perspectives that enrich teaching, research and professional practices are especially sought. Communication Arts Forum also will consider film and book reviews, commentaries, original interviews and conference reports.

For this purpose, the journal publishes articles that report original investigations and contribute new scholarship to the field of political science.

Atlanta University was founded in 1865 by the American Missionary Association with assistance from the Freedman's Bureau. Clark College was founded as Clark University in 1869 by the Freedmen's Aid Society of the Methodist Episcopal Church (now United Methodist Church). The college was named for Bishop Davis W. Clark, the first president of the Freedmen's Aid Society. In 1945, The Panther became the official student newspaper of Clark College, a decision made by the student body and faculty advisor. Prior to this,'The Mentor had been the representative college journal of student expression. Clark Atlanta University is the consolidation of Clark College and Atlanta University in 1988. This digital collection consists of 260 issues spanning dates from 1944 through 2017.
The Atlanta University Bulletin was published quarterly by the University. The purpose of the newsletter was to tell the story of the work being done at the University. Originally a monthly, the Bulletin contained information on issues pertaining to education for African Americans, articles on the academic program of the University, accomplishments of alumni, editorial comments on political issues and racial injustices, speeches and sermons delivered to the students by distinguished Americans, reprints of materials from various journals, and appeals for financial aid. The Bulletin also contained many illustrations and pictures of the campus and campus events. In 1910, the Bulletin became a quarterly, and devoted every fourth issue to the publication of the Atlanta University Catalog, which usually contained a list of trustees, faculty, descriptions of the University, school calendar, and course offerings.
The catalog for Clark University later named Clark College (now Clark Atlanta University) provides information on the degree programs, course offerings, policies, procedures, statistics, financial costs, buildings, services, administration staff, Board of Trustees, and faculty. Early years of the catalog also include lists of matriculating students and alumni.

Welcome to Phylon, the peer-reviewed journal that W.E.B. Du Bois founded at Atlanta University in 1940. Phylon has moved from a quarterly to a semi-annual publication and each issue will be defined by a special topic of general interest to faculty in the humanities and social sciences. With each volume we will encourage joint authorship by academics from various disciplines so that not only is the theme of the article presented, but it will be discussed in a Du Bosian interdisciplinary fashion taking into account historical, political and socio-economic interpretations. We believe that it is time to recognize that many of us in nominally separate fields and disciplines are working on the same problem from slightly different angles.
