General Announcements

CONGRATULATIONS to all the poets, writers, and visual artists who have been accepted to the 2007 Muse magazine, Volume Five! The complete list of winners is posted in the Muse display case outside the English office. Please take a few minutes to congratulate your friends who will have their work published in this year’s Muse magazine, and we’ll look forward to seeing you all at the Showcase Night, which will be Tuesday April 10th. Mark your calendar!! We especially want to thank ALL OF YOU who took a chance and submitted your artistic work for our consideration. The competition was tough, and we couldn’t accept many good pieces because we couldn’t fit them all in! Please try again next year!
