The brass STUDENT PROGRAM is a national initiative to strengthen high school students' understanding of money by providing free personal finance resources and instructional materials to students and teachers. The Student Program reaches tens of thousands of students and is made possible by sponsors interested in supporting financial education.

Elements of the Student Program include the brass MAGAZINE Student Edition and online access to the Student and Teacher Resource Centers. brass MAGAZINE is a lifestyle money magazine written for young adults, by young adults about the money side of life™. Teachers may use the magazine as a stand-alone resource, in conjunction with lesson plans provided by brass, or as a complement to existing classroom activities. Students are encouraged to become contributors.

The brass STUDENT PROGRAM was first launched in 2006 after an overwhelming demand from teachers seeking copies of brass MAGAZINE for use in their classrooms. Students may go to brassmagazine.com for access to articles or to sign-up to become a contributor.
