Rogue Currents Has Surfaced — and the Current Continues

The inaugural issue of Rogue Currents, RCC’s student magazine for literature and the arts, is now available in print and online.

Read the inaugural issue and find submission information on the Rogue Currents website.

The first issue showcases the remarkable creativity of RCC students through fiction, creative nonfiction, poetry, visual art, photography and music. Created through the work of student contributors and the student editorial team in WR 246: Magazine Writing, Editing, and Publishing, Rogue Currents gives RCC students an opportunity to share their creative work with the college community and beyond.

Faculty played an essential role in making the inaugural issue possible: 76% of submissions came from students who learned about Rogue Currents through an instructor or class announcement. As we begin gathering work for the next issue, faculty can help by telling students about the magazine, sharing the website and submission information, posting the Call for Submissions in Blackboard, and personally encouraging students whose creative work deserves a wider audience.

Submissions for the 2027 issue are now open until April 12, 2027. Rogue Currents welcomes original creative work in literature and the arts from current RCC students.

Help us keep the current moving: read, share and encourage students to submit!
