Perspectives Magazine
Students also prepare and distribute a literary-art magazine of student-submitted work called Perspectives. It is published once a year, and distributed during the spring semester. Dr. Charles Hannah started the magazine in 1987 as an after-school activity. Since then, Perspectives has become a full class that meets first block every other day. The 2012 edition will be the 25th issue.

Famous quotes containing the word magazine:
“Any one who knows what the worth of family affection is among the lower classes, and who has seen the array of little portraits stuck over a labourer’s fireplace ... will perhaps feel with me that in counteracting the tendencies, social and industrial, which every day are sapping the healthier family affections, the sixpenny photograph is doing more for the poor than all the philanthropists in the world.”
—Macmillan’s Magazine (London, September 1871)
