Massive Magazine is the student magazine of Massey University. Here at Massive it is our job to represent the voice of Massey students from the Wellington, Manawatƫ and Albany campuses. Massive Magazine was established in 2012 and is written, illustrated and designed by students.
Editorially independent from Massey University, Massive informs you, entertains you and connects you with other students through articles and stories about a wide variety of issues that affect the student population.
The 48-page long magazine can be picked up from numerous stands around campus for FREE, with a new issue being released every fortnight during term time.
