Prometheus at JHU - Philosophical journal forum for students
Reporting about the SGA, not a record of it: The Johns Hopkins News-Letter published this and the SGA did not write it, file it, or approve it. The archive holds it because the article itself uses the phrase “student council”.
Summary
- This Johns Hopkins News-Letter article reports on Prometheus, a new student philosophy journal founded at Johns Hopkins.
- The News-Letter reported that junior Dave Kotlyar founded Prometheus last summer as Johns Hopkins’ first student philosophy journal.
- The paper reported that the planned journal will be about 80 pages, with longer “articles” and shorter “discussion pieces.”
- The article says Kotlyar wanted to accept work beyond traditional philosophy, including poetry and anthropology.
- The reporter writes that Prometheus will be published annually, with its first edition planned for May and 300 to 500 hardback copies expected.
- According to the article, the journal received funds from the Provost’s office and the Office of Student Life, and submissions were due Jan. 1, 2002.
