Mission
Quadrangle refers to Canisius University's annual literary magazine as well as the club behind its creation and is dedicated to providing a platform on campus for students to learn and practice the art of writing. Quadrangle is part of a legacy at Canisius that spans the last 70 years and beyond.
Quadrangle accepts submissions of anything that can be put on paper, including (but certainly not limited to) prose, poetry, nonfiction, artwork (both hand drawn and digital), and comic strips. We believe in creating a tangible place for students, staff, faculty, and alumni to share their unique voices and talents, thus contributing to a timely — and timeless — collection of work. Artists from all backgrounds, majors, and Canisius involvement are welcome.
Our annual magazine is first revealed to the public and dispersed at the annual spring unveiling, during which members of the campus and the greater surrounding community gather to celebrate the latest Quadrangle edition and enjoy exclusive readings from selected pieces. During the semester, Quadrangle holds writer workshops, artistic community get-togethers, and magazine/unveiling planning meetings.
The magazine is published every April. The theme of the year's magazine is typically released during the fall semester of that academic year, and submissions are typically closed around February 1st. See @quadranglemag on Instagram, email quadmag@canisius.edu, or connect with any of the executive board members for more information.
