Ostranenie is an archive of Wesleyan students' creative and critical work. We consider anything capable of 2-D reproduction. Some of those things are:

drawing - essay - poem - cartoon - sculpture - criticism - fragment - diagram - fiction - photo - manifesto - tirade - play - sketch - score and there are so many other things that can be reproduced in 2 dimensions!

This issue is in black and white. We'll save color submissions for consideration in the spring. We can also convert submissions to black and white upon request. Let us know.

The S&C is back!

That's right! After a long month of less-tasty dining, the Star and Crescent's chef is back from his honeymoon and ready to cook some delicious meals at Alpha Delt starting this Monday, October 13th.

Meals are served Monday through Thursday for dinner, and Tuesday through Thursday for lunch. Hours and sit-down prices have not changed from last year, they remain:

Lunch: 12:00-12:30, 8 points

Dinner: 5:00-7:00, 10 points.

The policy instituted last semester of a 50 cent surcharge for to go orders will remain in effect this year.

This year's S&C Stewards (Nick Field '09 and Gus Spelman '11) will be selling meal contracts during dining hours through the next two weeks (essentially this consists of buying a set number of meals (lunches/dinners) per week up front at a discount). Full details of the costs will be available at that time.
