Outside Colby

Dear Outside Colby Readers, Writers, and Thinkers:

We feel that now, more than ever, is the most pertinent time to publish a Disorientation Guide. This special issue from Outside Colby gives a voice to alternative narratives. It is critical to write about everything that happens at Colby, both in the past, present, and plans for the future.

At Outside Colby, we have always strove to be a platform that promotes dialogue on all things political. Now, as part of the Outside Colby community, we look to you to strengthen and broaden this platform right at the beginning of the year.

We have extended our deadline for submissions to Sunday, August 16th. Articles can be as short as 500 words! Submit your stories via email to Himanshu Bhurtel
([email protected]) and Eana Bacchiocchi ([email protected]).

This message is a friendly reminder than articles for the Disorientation Guide are due on Sunday, August 9th!

You don't have to limit your articles to the guidelines we provided. This special issue is really about pushing the limits of content and providing a platform for alternative narratives from all parts of Colby.

Submit your articles via email to [email protected] and [email protected]. Please let us know if you have questions or comments!

Read on,
Outside Colby
