The Midway Review

The Midway Review is a nonpartisan journal of intelligent political and cultural commentary and criticism at the University of Chicago.

The Midway Review is now accepting submissions for its Spring 2020 issue, due by Friday, April 3rd. Full details of our call for submissions can be found below. Please visit our website for more information.

~About the Review~
The Midway Review publishes once each quarter, featuring articles that are both informed and accessible to a generally educated audience. We welcome submissions from all U

of C students, alumni, and faculty, as well as writers from outside the university community. We cover a broad range of subjects: politics and current events, literary and cultural criticism, book and film reviews, religion, philosophy, and history. We are also looking for short, reflective personal essays on pertinent cultural and political topics. In brief, we are looking for articles that are articulate, well argued, and generally interesting.

~Submission Guidelines~
There is no upper word limit for submissions, however we would like them to be at least 1,000 words in order to allow for the full development of a topic. Submissions should include the author's year and major, or other relevant biographical information if the author is not a U of C student. In your piece, please cite fully with endnotes rather than footnotes. We do not accept submissions that have been published elsewhere. Submissions can be sent to [email protected]. If you think you’d like to contribute, please do not hesitate to contact us. You can email the Review’s Editors-in-Chief, Jonathan Chung ([email protected]), Sophie Salvato ([email protected]), and Brent DeVries ([email protected]), with any questions, ideas, or thoughts that you might have. To get a better sense of The Midway Review, it may also be helpful to check out our past issues, which can be downloaded as PDFs from our website's archive.
