  • Arches is the award-winning alumni magazine of the University of Puget Sound. It is published quarterly and distributed worldwide to 40,000 alumni, parents, and friends of the university. Its mission is to foster communication among these constituencies and with the university by reporting on issues of importance to both.
  • Race and Pedagogy Journal: Teaching and Learning for Justice provides a forum to cultivate a critical discussion around the issues of teaching and race to mitigate the effects of discrimination and structural racism, and thereby, improve education for all students. R&PJ is managed and edited by the University of Puget Sound under the auspices of the Race and Pedagogy Institute. The journal was established in 2015 and publishes three to four issues a year. The advisory board seeks scholarly submissions that are diverse in voice and content.
     

Student Publications

  • The Trail is an independent, student-run newspaper funded by the Associated Students of the University of Puget Sound. The Trail staff produce a monthly newspaper with comprehensive information relevant to students, thereby creating an archival record for the university. The newspaper serves as a link between Puget Sound and the greater Tacoma community, and provides an open forum for student opinion and discourse. The newspaper was first published as Ye Recorde in 1895, and then became The Maroon in 1903, and finally became The Trail in 1910.
  • Crosscurrents is the student literary and art magazine of the University of Puget Sound. It was established in 1958 and has traditionally put out at least one magazine per school year.
