Fathom

Fathom is an annual publication of selected poetry and short stories from Dalhousie and King's College University undergraduate students. The first volume was published in 1981 and the latest edition was printed in April 2017. It is a student led initiative and a new group of students is organized each September to act as an editorial board under the direction of a faculty advisor. All back issues are available in the Killam Library Special Collection archives.
