More Than A Mag
A lot has happened to The Isis since 1892.
We have been banned in Germany, threatened by blackmail, and mocked by Punch Magazine. Along the way our reporters have been prosecuted under the Official Secrets Act, hosted by Wikileaks, and forced to walk out over threats of editorial censorship during The Isis’s radical left-wing heyday.
On this journey, our ranks have included the likes of Evelyn Waugh, Sylvia Plath, Boris Johnson, Terry Jones, Graham Greene, Hilaire Belloc, David Dimbleby, Michael Foot, Richard Ingrams, Mary Kaldor, George Osborne, Chris Huhne, and of course Mostyn Turtle Piggott, our delightfully eccentric founder.
The Isis comes out three times a year: one issue for each Oxford term. We also organise term-time events: speaker panels on culture and politics; documentary screenings; gigs featuring Oxford's best student bands; and club nights.
