Hawk+

One Platform for Everything CCOM Produces

Hawk+ began with a simple question raised during the early days of the COVID-19 pandemic: why couldn't students and alumni access all of the media produced by the College of Communication and Media in one place? In Spring 2022, that question became a reality with the launch of Hawk+, the first student-run streaming service of its kind in the country.

The platform was built in partnership with Triple-B Media. This model gave Montclair a unifying video platform that aggregates content normally scattered across the college's website, social channels, and individual student media organizations into a single destination.

Students learn every layer of running a real streaming service: programming, scheduling, promotion, marketing, and social media, skills that translate directly into careers across the media industry.
