This quarterly literary magazine should bring together students from all disciplines through the medium of literature.  The magazine will span across poetry, short stories, and essays.  The selection of the literature is not limited by genre or by the subject matter, but will be based upon the ability of the literature to have an impact upon its reader.  This magazine will strive towards creating a literary dialog on campus that is not limited to the disciplines traditionally associated with the study of literature.  This dialogue, with its expansive scope, has the potential to promote a sense of community and diversity.  Finally, it provides a supportive environment for aspiring writers and publishers to receive exposure amongst their peers and the larger academic community of the University of Michigan.
