Write the Ship and The Reflector are proud to announce their digital publications for the 2020-2021 academic year. Write the Ship is the university’s undergraduate academic journal featuring student essays, research, studies and work from all disciplines. The Reflector is the university’s journal of the arts, showcasing creative works of prose, poetry, art and other writings. Print publications will be available in fall 2020 and publications will be mailed upon request for graduating seniors.
In place of the annual launch party this year, The Reflector and Write the Ship created a video available replicating what the launch would have looked like.
