In 1996, five Comparative Literature
majors, with financial support from Comparative Literature,
founded an annual undergraduate journal of poetry and visual
art dedicated to the publishing of student writing in languages
other than English, with facing page translation.
The mOthertongue journal
is now in its 13th cycle, and enjoys support from the Arts
Council
and the Alumni Association as well as Comparative
Literature, and is still edited by Comparative Literature
majors, who celebrate each publication in a public reading
and reception attended by audiences of 50 or more.
