Many political changes have impacted America and its people. So, starting our semester with our first issue focused on the United States seemed right. The stories placed in this issue have a message for all of its readers.

This year as the print magazine editor my goal is to convey an interactive message for all readers with the use of art, poetry, and illustrations to push our editions messages further. I want my audience not just to digest the writing but be able to see these stories as well.
