‘The Aurochs’ extends deadline one week

By Mark Schulman
Campus Life Editor

The UNCP student magazine “The Aurochs” will be extending its deadline for submissions to Dec. 1.

The magazine accepts poetry, fiction prose and art. Concerning art, everything from photography to digital and more traditional fine arts is accepted.

“We are encouraging everyone to get involved and get published,” Editor Nathan Graham said. “If you have old poems, short stories or artwork sitting around, we want them.”

This will be the fifth issue of the magazine and has gone through many transformations over its lifetime. Last year, “The Aurochs” included fiction for the first time and accepted more artwork and poetry doubling the content of the publication. Also presented last year for the first time was a full-color cover created by a student.

There are openings this spring for “The Aurochs” publication course where students learn page layout and editing.

Submission Guidelines for “The Aurochs”:
-Microsoft Word documents for poetry, fiction and personal statement for “Contributors Notes” section
-TIFF files for artwork should be 300 dpi minimum, vertically oriented and submitted in both grayscale and full color.
Submit work to aurochs@uncp.edu or contact Dr. Helgeson at 521-6436 for more information.
