Since 1989, Allegany College of Maryland has had its own literary magazine, Expressions, which regularly features between fifty and sixty pages of student art, photography and writing. In 1992 Expressions was awarded second place in regional competition of two-year college magazines sponsored by the Community College Association in Philadelphia. All work is done by students, and the production is supervised by two capable faculty editors, Mrs. Carolyn Kershaw and Dr. Jack Shreve.

     Distinctive essays written by composition students for English 101, 112 and 102 classes here at Allegany College of Maryland form the nucleus of the magazine, with occasional literary and/or term papers which probe a little deeper academically. Student poetry forms another significant part of what we publish in Expressions, and a really unique contribution to our magazine is poetry translated from the Spanish by the Intermediate Spanish classes (Spanish 204).

     Enjoy our magazine, but remember, submissions for future issues are limited to students currently enrolled at Allegany College of Maryland.
