North Campus’ Axis Magazine Takes First

Axis, the student magazine at the North Campus, has been awarded first place by the Community College Humanities Association in the Southern Division for its 2010 issue.

The magazine consists of poems, short stories, artwork and photography.

All submissions are created by the students of the North Campus, either from their own portfolios or from the creative writing course offered at the campus.

In its seven years of circulation, the annual magazine has won numerous awards and received various honors.

“We were thrilled,” said Professor Elena Perez-Mirabal, Axis’ co-adviser. “It was the first time we submitted to this contest. It was a testament to the hard work of our students.”

The award-winning issue will be released on Wednesday, Oct. 27.
