Home | Mission | Submissions | Subscriptions The Board of Rock & Sling Press is most pleased to announce: Let me tell you about Whitworth University, located in Spokane, Washington:
Whitworth University's 200-acre campus of red-brick buildings and tall pines offers a beautiful, inviting and secure learning environment. More than $83 million in campus improvements have been made over the past decade, including a new center for the visual arts, a landmark general academic building, three new residence halls and several outdoor athletics facilities. Construction is under way for a new science facility that is slated to open in fall 2011. In all of these endeavors, the university seeks to advance its founder's mission of equipping students to "honor God, follow Christ and serve humanity." * Whitworth brings changes to Rock & Sling: While the journal will continue to publish two print issues a year, there will also be an online version with expanded content and art, podcasts of readings, author profiles and interviews. The journal will largely stay the same, and will continue to focus on the high-quality literature and art Rock & Sling has been known for. The exploration of faith and its mysteries will continue to serve as the focus of the journal. Let me introduce to you the editorial staff: Editor-in-chief: Thomas Caraway The board of Rock & Sling Press is most pleased to have an active editorial staff of highly successful writers. One of the benefits of housing the journal at Whitworth is that students will have an opportunity to learn the intricacies of the publishing world, assisting in many of the behind-the-scenes activities of the journal. Pax vobiscum, Susan Cowger
