Definition

A student in the Medill school of journalism. This term is generally used by Medill students to describe themselves. Sometimes it is used as a form of praise, and other times it is used ironically. It is often used with a hashtag in posts on social media sites. The term is usually introduced to Medill students by their peer advising group during Wildcat Welcome. Many Medill students find the term obnoxious and even when used seriously, it comes with the connotation of an over-bearing and over-eager person (see also Medildo.) The term is a portmanteau of the words ‘Medill’ and ‘millionaire.’
