Junior Starts New Magazine in Quad

The Committee on College Life just approved plans for a new magazine for residents of the Radcliffe Quadrangle called, "Out Far, In Deep," the magazine's founder said.

Managing Editor Michael S. Krivan '90, a Currier House resident who is organizing the magazine, said that the publication will accept articles from Quad residents.

"We are aiming for a literary element and also a section which will be more related to editorials and opinion." Krivan said. He said the magazine would also include a calendar of events happening in the Quad.

Krivan said that a group of students discussed the idea of a Quad magazine last year, but received a grant from the Undergraduate Council too late in the year to put out an issue.

He said he hopes to have a 12 to 16 page paper out before Christmas, and one or two more issues before the end of the year.

Krivan said he plans to raise money by selling ads but added, "If worse comes to worse I can finance it myself."

"It looks like it's going to be a great thing. The Quad could certainly use its own periodical," said Alan D. Hodder, an assistant professor of religion and English literature and the adviser for "Out Far, In Deep."

Harvard Plans for New Hispanic Publication

Harvard will soon have a new biannual Hispanic publication, "Salsa Magazine."

The magazine will be partially bilingual and cover both cultural and political topics, said Editor-in-Chief Carlos R. Perez '91.

"A lot of people have a misconception that an ethnic group has one perspective," Perez said. He added that "Salsa" will seek to present multiple views on issues ranging from affirmative action to the problems of Mexican farm workers in America.

Perez said he wants Hispanic students college-wide to submit articles so that the magazine will reflect "input from a very wide range of political perspectives." He added that he expects "Salsa" to be "politically unbiased."

Salsa has received a $550 grant from the Harvard Foundation and has an application for another grant pending with the Undergraduate Council. The magazine was approved Monday by the Committee on College Life.

Joseph Montaya, resident tutor of Mather House and Salsa's advisor, said he hopes "Salsa" will be a "cultural vehicle for both Latino culture and political activity at Harvard." He added that he expects the first issue to be ready by January, 1989.
