A new undergraduate-led journal out of Huron University College promises to publish “radical and original student research on a variety of topics, with the aim of helping students participate in our wider academic research community.”
Launched this week, Liberated Arts is an academic collaboration between students, faculty and staff at the Western affiliate, and plans to be interdisciplinary in scope and perspective. The debut issue of the open-access journal lives up to that pledge by featuring stories on a range of subjects, including Lorraine Hansberry’s A Raisin in the Sun, British women in espionage and the lyrical stylings of Gord Downie of The Tragically Hip.
