Welcome to the web home page of Miscellany magazine, a general interest magazine covering Bowling Green State University and the surrounding community. Miscellany is published fall and spring semesters and has a circulation of 5,000. It is distributed at more than 50 key on-campus and off-campus locations.

Miscellany Magazine began in 1975, when the Benjamin Franklin Society, a magazine "club" in existence at the time, created a biannual magazine called, "Syzygy," which meant "to yolk together" in Greek. It's purpose was to better connect the university to the city. Syzygy was last published in the 1978-1979 school year.

The magazine was reborn in its current tabloid form in 1982, when the Board of Student Publications authorized the start-up of a magazine titled, "Black Swamp Magazine." It was named for the former geography of the land in Northwest Ohio. It was renamed Miscellany in 1985 to reflect the general and wide-ranging content it provided.

This campus publication, which comes out twice a year, is focused on student issues. Miscellany strives to present these issues in creative and daring ways through experimentation with different writing styles and layout designs.

The Miscellany editor serves a fall-to-spring semester term and is selected by the publications board in April of each year. Editorial staff members are interviewed and hired by the student editor. Editorial content in each issue is determined by the student editors and staff.
Miscellany magazine accepts display advertising, both local and national. Deadlines are two weeks in advance of the publishing date. Miscellany is published the second Monday of November and April.
