Liberal Arts Anthology 2018
May 10th, 2018The Liberal Arts Anthology is an annual project culminating in the publication of essays, short stories, poems, photographs, drawings, etc. by 1st & 2nd year students in the program. The project is run entirely by students (planning, coordinating collaborators, editing, desktop publishing).
Project Update
The 2018 Liberal Arts Anthology entitled 鈥淭he Art of Pretension鈥� was completed and distributed on May 10, 2018.The editorial board made up of first and second year students did an outstanding job of bringing together both cohorts in a joint artistic venture. This project signals the culmination of two years of hard work and student success, as the 2nd year students are about to graduate from the program.Once again, the number of collaborators as well as the variety of contributions increased, and this year approximately 75 students and faculty members contributed to the project. New this year was the inclusion of QR codes in the printed publication. These codes, when scanned by a smartphone, lead the reader to online videos of music performances.During the launch reception, the winner of the annual Liberal Arts Poetry Prize (sponsored by Brick Books) was announced and presented with an award comprised of a set of the poetry books published by Brick Books during the past year. In addition, the winning poem (as well as several others worthy of an 鈥淗onorable mention鈥�) were published in the Liberal Arts Anthology.The annual publication of the Anthology continues to be a huge success, a source of pride within the Liberal Arts community, and a tangible product of the wonderful collaboration between the first and second year cohorts of the program.
