The Archive

Established in 1887, The Archive is one of the oldest continuously published literary magazines in the United States and the oldest student publication at Duke University . The primary focus of the magazine is the publication of student poetry and short fiction. Each edition also showcases photography and artwork. Submissions need not conform to a particular subject or theme; the staff welcomes fresh, original work of all kinds. We are proud to be able to print the work of a new generation of writers and artists. In addition to publishing two editions a year, the magazine organizes student readings featuring Archive contributors and the writers of the Duke community, known as the Archive Literary Festival. Readings are free and open to the public, and we hope you will join us when they start up in the spring. In the meantime, pick up a copy of the magazine and see what Duke students are writing about.

Blind Spot

What is a Blind Spot? It's that place in your field of vision that you can't quite see, an invisible hole in your perception of the world around you. Some might view it as a nuisance, an error in nature's design that evolution has yet to correct. Others, the dreamers and visionaries, know the truth: a blind spot represents something special, one of the many dark corners of the universe from which unexpected things emerge - it's a well of wonders waiting to be sounded, given sufficient imagination. So what is "The Blind Spot"? We are a journal that publishes creative writing, art, and poetry in the genres of sci-fi, fantasy, and speculative fiction, as well as reviews on current works in these genres. It's our goal to use this publication to explore the creative possibilities of alternate worlds and times, to discover what's lurking just out of sight in our blind spots. Please join us on our quest, by reading our journal, and by considering writing or illustrating for our next issue!

Carpe Noctem Quarterly

We are Carpe Noctem, Duke’s only intentionally humorous publication! Sure, we’ve been laying low for a few years, living under the radar like Osama, but now we’re back and better than ever! We dedicate our lives to making you laugh. Well, maybe not our entire lives, but definitely like a solid 3 hours, 14 Red Bulls, 3 Eight balls of crack/cocaine, and one issue of the Chronicle (just so we have something to laugh at). We slave away to create jokes that will keep you entertained, enlightened, and...uh...entertained? Did I say that already? Oh well, that’s what we do. So go ahead, monkey around.

The Chanticleer

The Chanticleer, Duke's yearbook, takes its name from the singing rooster in Chaucer's Canterbury Tales. While nobody today is really sure why the Chanticleer was given this name, nearly a century after its conception the yearbook still proudly documents life at Duke. Last year featured an experimental full-color book, and this year?s continues to evolve more than ever. The Chanticleer is solidly working in the digital age?we use top of the line equipment and recently purchased and entire new set of computers, making it easier than ever to capture campus life. Now in its ninety-third year, the Chanticleer continues to progress, reflecting the thriving and ever-changing Duke University student body.

Journal of Prospective Health Care

Prospective Health Care is an emerging field focusing on detection and prevention of health problems before they cause sickness. It is intended to improve the well-being of participants and reduce the overall costs of health care, and is fueled by continuing advances in genomics and a greater understanding of environmental risk factors, as well as the need to reduce costs and improve patient care in the current health care system. The mission of the Journal is twofold: we want to (1) to raise awareness about the ideas of Prospective Health Care and (2) to provide a forum for scholarly dialogue on Prospective Health Care and related issues. The intended audience of the Journal is undergraduates and graduate students from any academic background, and professionals from any field, who are interested in reforming health care.

Religio

Religio is an undergraduate journal of Christian thought at Duke University. Our purpose is to provide Duke students, faculty, and staff, a venue to read and write about their Christian faith.

This university was founded on the premise that knowledge and religion, eruditio et religio, are central to the development and formation of all persons. Thus, it is our mission to once again bring Christianity into dialogue with the learning of this university.

Rival Magazine

Rival Magazine is a joint Duke-UNC publication that actively seeks to stimulate social contact, promote intercollegiate communication, and catalyze intellectual and organizational collaboration between two elite institutions. Our magazine serves as a forum for students, faculty, and administrators to express common interests, debate burning issues, share mutual concerns affecting the community, and publicize events and programs that benefit both schools. Rival is part of the Undergraduate Publication Board at Duke and is independently recognized at UNC-CH.

While Rival focuses on content that bridges the gap between Duke and UNC, it also delivers current, newsworthy articles that allow readership to explore some of the most pressing issues of our time. Past features have addressed performance enhancing drugs in sports and academics, social upheaval in Burma, and the impact of Teach for America on our nation?s youth. Articles directly linking the Duke-UNC communities have included the triangle music scene, secret societies on both campuses, the Duke-UNC Basketball Marathon, and campus start-ups like shoeboxed.com.

Vertices

Vertices is the Journal of Science and Technology at Duke, a bi-yearly non-profit undergraduate student-run organization, highlighting undergraduate scientific writing, with emphases on original research and commentary. Other articles, such as subject reviews, are also published. The publication occupies a unique place among the University's publications and is as much a liaison between the students and faculty as it is a forum for inquiry and opinion.
