Prologue

Prologue is the University of Wisconsin - River Falls student literary and art publication. Each issue contains the writing and artwork of UWRF undergraduate students, graduate students, and recent graduates. Literary submissions range from poems to short stories to creative essays. Original works of art, such as drawings, photographs, and images of metal and glasswork, are found throughout the publication.

Submissions are accepted from January through the end of February, during spring semester. Prologue is edited by graduating English and Art majors. Prologue is distributed campus-wide in print, before the end of spring semester, and is free to students and faculty.
