The Cross Section

Our mission is to create an accessible collection of works that have their foundation in Scandinavian Studies, published bi-annually, created by university students, and edited by undergraduate students at UW-Madison. To increase diversity of the program, students studying a variety of Scandinavian cultures will be represented, both in the editorial staff and in content. Additionally, we are interested in gathering works of a varied nature, including, but not limited to, fiction, non-fiction, research essays, and poetry. In doing so, we hope to increase the exposure of student works related to the Scandinavian Studies discipline, support publication of undergraduate students, and connect undergraduates to their peers, mentors, campus resources, and the support networks available to them.
