“The Pen,” the literary magazine published by the USCB Society of Creative Writers
each academic year, won a national first-place award from the American Scholastic
Press Association in January. The association praised the journal as “an excellent
publication which deserves a first-place award in the annual American Scholastic Press
Association’s magazine competition.”
Ellen Malphrus, Ph.D., professor of English in the Department of English, Theater and Liberal Studies, serves as faculty advisor for the Society of Creative Writers. Student staff members who worked on the award-winning issues were: Christopher Hunt, the editor; Madison Hayes, Amanda Mazeika, Matthew Rodriguez, Cecilia Codling, Maddie Csernica, Selena Menjivar, Angela Stevens, Courtney Sherry, Susan Baukages, Bran Lovell, Carrie Myers, Crystal Saunders, Jaia Jones, Kris Geiger, Rebecca Malkewicz, Ryan Muth and Anne-Marie Cauthen.
