Weber State University's Interdisciplinary Journal

Metaphor is an annual publication.  It is a journal created entirely by students.  The staff is volunteer, the published submissions are all original, undergraduate works, and the journal is paid for by student fees.  Metaphor not only reaches the student body, but also employs a wider distribution among alumni and key areas in the community.

Metaphor’s chief aim is to facilitate an environment in which students at Weber State University can express their ideas in writing, art, and music.  Second to that aim, and in conjunction with it, Metaphor is responsible for publishing a quality literary journal which showcases the diversity and genius of our university to the surrounding community.  Additionally, we aim to provide training and experience for volunteer staff members in the field of editing and publication. 

Metaphor recognizes that good topics and good writing can be found in any academic discipline.  We strive, therefore, to make Metaphor a multi-disciplinary undergraduate literary publication that works with students in all colleges and departments.   In publishing works of art and music alongside literary works, Metaphor recognizes the diversity of talents within the Humanities and on Weber State University's campus.
