Directory 2013-14 Cambridge University English Society A Directory 2013-14 Cambridge University English Society A D I R E C T O R Y of P U B L I C A T I O N S , G ROUP S & READINGS etc. compiled by the C A M BRID G E UNIVERSITY ENGLIS H S OCIETY C A M B R I D G E M M X I I I - M M X I V PUBLICATIONS AVIARY is a small publication, with a limited run, published at the beginning and end of every term. Each edition is hand-crafted and brings together the best creative talents, producing a wonderfully unique visual and literary experience. Many of the features are produced specifically for Aviary, and represent a chance to get one’s hands on original artwork by some of the most exciting young talents in and beyond Cambridge. Aviary is always looking for young creatives, of any artistic expression, to appear on the Aviary website, which is regularly updated with features and artwork. This includes the new ‘Aviary Presents’, which intends to showcase the best in performative, musical or any other form of artistic talent. This year’s editors are Thea Hawlin, Madeleine Dunnigan, Alice Housset and Ella Hubbard. [email protected] www.aviarymagazine.com CAMBRIDGE LITERARY REVIEW is an occasional print magazine of poetry, short fiction and criticism, edited by Boris Jardine and Lydia Wilson. www.cambridgeliterary review.org or cambridgeliteraryreview @gmail.com CAMBRIDGE THEATRE REVIEW sends two students to review the first night performance of all student, amateur and professional productions in Cambridge. CTR’s policy of publishing two reviews for every production is designed to stimulate debate, creating a new way of writing about and responding to theatrical events. Our greatest strength is that we are exclusively online: we can be a dynamic, interactive and ever-expanding cultural resource. Our users will post their own event information, request to review online and leave their reviews via the site, leaving our editorial team free to pursue new ways of extending CTR’s reach. Any student (with an .ac.uk email address) with an interest in theatre can review for us. Simply request to review the play of your choice online (go to the specific event’s page or your ‘my reviews’ page to sign up). Tickets are allocated on a first-come-first- served basis; if all the spaces are filled, you can be put on the waiting list so that you are the first one to be contacted. THE DIAL is a small publication of new writing run from Queens’ College. Anyone is welcome (and encouraged) to submit anything that they have written, so long as it has not been previously published; there are no other formal constraints. The publication takes the form of ink on paper, and is made available across Porters’ Lodges and faculties at no extra cost. There are at least three editions of The Dial a year, depending on the flow of incoming writing. Readings to follow. For submissions and queries of any sort, contact Joseph Persad swift as a spirit hastening to his task (or a face rolled away). [email protected] HALFCIRCLE is a print poetry journal founded in Oxford in 2010 by Tom Graham and Arabella Currie, primarily devoted to the promotion of innovative and experimental verse. Halfcircle has been distributed in shops and at readings in Ireland, France, America, Uruguay and throughout the UK, and has also organised poetry readings in Oxford and Cambridge. www.halfcircle.org [email protected] [email protected] Each year, the MAYS publishes a selection of the best and most exciting new writing from students at the universities of Oxford and Cambridge, ever since it first appeared in 1993. The anthology is edited by students and is based at the University of Cambridge, published by Varsity Productions. The Mays is broader in scope than most university literary projects: it is sold in bookstores and by delivery nationwide. Each year a guest editor — usually a prominent author, poet or artist — writes an introduction to the anthology. Email president@ varisty.co.uk if you are interested in helping out on the editorial team. Anthology submissions usually open after Michaelmas term. NOTES is a bi-weekly student journal in Cambridge and Oxford publishing submissions of essays, visual art and creative writing. Its aim is to eventually create a platform for discussion and expression of new ideas within and across the two universities. [email protected] www.facebook.com/notespublication PAPERS THE CAMBRIDGE STUDENT is a free weekly newspaper distributed to the staff and students of the University of Cambridge. It is written and edited entirely by a team of volunteers. The Cambridge Student prides itself on being an inclusive organisation. We try not to patronise, and the newspaper's aim is to deliver the best in student journalism. We are the only student publication in Cambridge to have dedicated pages to theatre, film and music. Although The Cambridge Student is affiliated to the University Students' Union (CUSU) we are editorially independent. [email protected] THE TAB arrived at Cambridge in June 2009 with one simple aim – to provide fast news and entertainment direct to your rooms. We understand that the life of a typical ‘tab’ can be stressful and demanding. By applying a sense of humour to news within ‘the bubble’ we hope a little chuckle can help remedy those woes. Life’s not all laughs though, and at The Tab we are committed to delivering quality news and initiating important debates. It is this balance that makes us different from the rest. The Tab was created by students, is run for students and is the only newspaper in Cambridge operated only by students (although graduates can’t seem to get enough of it!). We believe that we are the true independent university news service. Oh yeah, and we’ve got some values as well. We believe in the power of writing. It is one we offer to everyone, whether it is through our news articles or in our feedback sections – a space where you can share your thoughts. We also love you a bit… [email protected] VARSITY is the independent Cambridge student newspaper, avidly read since 1947. The paper and website together offer a huge range of writing opportunities, so whether you’re interested in news-reporting, feature writing, poetry, puns, comment or analysis, we’d love to hear from you. Or, if the prospect of sharing your views on the latest cinema, theatre, books and music appeals, try your hand at reviewing. If you’re interested in something, chances are that other people will be too. It doesn’t matter if you don’t have any experience – a lot of people get their start on Varsity. We’re always on the lookout for illustrators and photographers. So, if you want your work to be read or seen by thousands across Cambridge, you know where to find us. [email protected] SOCIETIES THE CAMBRIDGE UNIVERSITY ENGLISH SOCIETY aims to promote communication between those interested in the literary arts across colleges and subjects, and aims particularly to support and connect creative writers. Our creative writing network, Chameleon, provides up-to-date listings of all events, opportunities, groups and regular nights of interest to writers and poets. We also run regular events and workshops; keep an eye on what’s going on across the university by joining the mailing list. In the academic year 2013-14, the President is Phoebe Power ([email protected]), the Vice-President Harry Cochrane ([email protected]) www.cambridgechameleon.wordpress.com HATCH is a showcase of the best new writing from students in Cambridge: drama, poetry, monologues, sketches, scenes, stories, works in progress. We usually present two sell-out shows per term at venues around Cambridge. Writers of poetry and prose will read their own work on the night, while each piece of drama will be staged by our own acting and directing body. We also produce a pamphlet of all texts included in the show, sold as part of the ticket price and available from the English Faculty Library. Keep an eye on our Facebook group; for more information, contact Georgia Wagstaff at [email protected] KING’S COLLEGE DRAMA SOCIETY was reinstated just last year by a group of King's students who felt King's College ought to have a thriving drama scene of its own. So far we have had an extremely successful production of Jean-Paul Sartre's 'No Exit' and a sold out monologue showcase which exhibited new student writing, as performed by student actors. The society is committed to encouraging those interested in the theatrical and using its resources to demonstrate original student writing. www.kingsdrama.co.uk LUCY CAVENDISH ENGLISH SOCIETY / CREATIVE WRITING The English Society runs a termly theatre trip with free or subsidized tickets for members and puts on other events such as international poetry readings, Christmas parties and talks, with plenty of chocolate. All Lucy Cavendish English students are automatically members but any other student at the college can also join. During first year all English students at Lucy Cavendish are given the opportunity to take part in creative writing classes given by Kelly Smith, a professional writer and ex-English Student from the college. Some of the work produced can be put forward as part of the original composition component of Tripos. Contact Heather Hind ([email protected]) or Hannah Schule-Lewis ([email protected]) NEWNHAM ANONYMOUS PLAYERS is the Newnham College dramatic society that provides funding for in-house or experimental productions.

Yeo objected when the town voted to adopt a condom distribution policy in Lex- ington High School ("LHS" ). 1 He responded by forming a political action group to oppose the policy arid submitting pro-abstinence ad- vertisements for publication in the official LHS yearbook ("the year- book") and newspaper ("the Musket"). 2 When student editors of both publications declined to run Yeo's advertisements, citing unwritten policies prohibiting the acceptance of political advertisements, Yeo claimed that his First and Fourteenth Amendment rights had been violated and threatened to sues Upon the editors' issuance of their final refusal to publish, Yco brought an action against his town and his son's high school principal in federal district court.' Both the local press and the district court decision that granted the defendants' motion for summary judgment portrayed plaintiff Yeo as overly litigious and moralistic.

JOURNALISM By Tom Deats HISTORY OF THE DEPARTMENT OF JOURNALISM UNIVERSITY OF NORTH DAKOTA By TomDeats Associate Professor of Journalism University of North Dakota THE EARLY YEARS Almost from the day the University of North Dakota opened in 1884, UNO students showed an interest and enthusiam for journalistic activities that for many years went largely unmatched by either the university administration or the faculty. Within two years of the beginning of classes at the university, the students were publishing their own "newspaper," a magazine-style journal titled University News. There were no classes in journalism at UNO. No academic credit was given for working on the student publication. And no thought was being given to starting a journalism program. But the students wanted a "newspaper" so they published their own. The first issue of University News was largely the work of student A.R.
