The Windhover <\/em>is N.C. State University’s award-winning annual literary and visual arts publication, which was first published in 1964. The journal has served as a creative outlet for students, who can submit anything from poems to photography and short stories to songs throughout the year.\u00a0<\/span>The Windhover <\/em>staff members then select submissions from N.C. State students and compile them into the journal, which has historically been circulated in the spring.<\/span><\/p>\n


\nThe Windhover <\/em>began as a mostly literary journal, but has evolved to include a steady balance of both visual and literary submissions. In 2003, the publication began accepting audio submissions, which were included on a music CD that accompanied the book.<\/p>\n

Literary submissions for\u00a0The Windhover <\/em>mostly come from students of the College of Humanities and Social Sciences, and visual submissions tend to come from students of the College of Design. Similarly,\u00a0The Windhover<\/em>‘s staff mostly comes from these colleges.
\n
\nThe Windhover <\/em>was not published from 1970 to 1973. Instead, Dr. C.P. Heaton’s creative writing class “filled the void created by the demise of\u00a0The Windhover<\/em>,” and published three editions of\u00a0The Whole Thing, <\/em>a similar literary journal. In 1974,\u00a0The Windhover <\/em>was reinstated and has been published ever since.<\/p>\n
