Collegetown is a magazine of current affairs, culture, and college. Founded by friends in a collegetown called Ithaca New York at a school called Cornell University, the magazine’s mission is to embody the culture found in these youthful, lively, and hopeful places, while taking a critical look at all their problems. We publish longform feature journalism that examines the collegiate experience in the context of today’s pressing issues, as well as opinion and art of all kinds—including fiction and poetry and photography—created by college students.
