Margins is gearing up for its seventh issue and we need your work once again! Why submit? As students, we write on the margins of professional research. Our papers and theses—the products of much devoted labour—hardly see the light of day once TurnItIn and LumiNUS get hold of them. But you can save your brilliant work from the exile of your hard drive or the cloud by letting us give your ideas a voice outside the classroom. If you’ve got a paper you’re especially proud of, a daring alt-take too risqué for class, a poetic incision on something you learned, photos or even footage of your blood, sweat, and tears, send it to us and let us, as your peers, celebrate you. You’ve already encountered your peers’ exciting ideas in Issue 6. Now it’s your turn. Head over to our website or our Facebook page to find out more! You may view our submissions guidelines here, and please do email us at marginsjournal@gmail.com with any questions you might have. We look forward to receiving your submissions! — The Margins Team

Dear fellow undergraduates, Issue 6 of Margins is out now! We’re excited to share with you the brilliant writing of Allison Hoe, Darcel Anastasia Al Anthony, Dan N. Tran, Tan Wei Lin, and Timothy Wan in Margins’s latest issue entitled “A New World”. The issue rallies a diversity of literary thought at the boundaries of the undergraduate literary classroom. Despite the issue’s title, we ultimately find ourselves in possession not of a map toward any one sort of new world, but an intimating sketch of its myriad possibilities—a sketch which is concomitantly frank about the uncertainties any foray into novelty must confront. Finally, the point of the issue is not to offer any sort of roadmap into whatever future lies ahead. Rather, our purpose is to offer specific directions on how to get lost, and then a reminder to enjoy it. Click here to read “A New World” now! You can read the issue in your desktop browser or download a PDF. Sincerely, The Margins Team *Visit our website or connect with us on Facebook! *Reach us with any questions you might have at marginsjournal@gmail.com.
