Fall Contests

in medias res is running two contests during the Fall Term: a Cover Contest and a Very Short Sci-Fi Story Contest. Undergraduate and graduate students are invited to submit entries to one or both of the contests. If you have already submitted work to the magazine through the regular submission process, you are still eligible to submit work to the contests!

The deadline is November 3, 2025. The grand prize for both contests is a $20 gift card and publication in the Fall Issue, “ChatGPT turns 4.” Runners-up will also have their work published in the Fall Issue.

Fall submissions are open until October 15, 2025

Please consider submitting your work (visual art, poetry, fiction, or nonfiction) to our magazine for publication. We are especially looking for pieces relevant to our theme “ChatGPT Turns 4,” but we will consider works that are not related to our theme.

Vol. 29 No. 1 01/2025

Please enjoy our newest release.

Our title describes the experience of university life, in which we are always caught “in the middle of things.”

Submit your work!

What are you thinking about? What worries you? What moves you? We want to hear the voices that make up this university and help put their work out into the world.
