About

Clio (first published in 1973) is Western Connecticut State University’s student-run history journal.  The journal is a compilation of works written by students, staff, and faculty at WCSU, many of whom pursue history as their major. Each September the club decides on a theme and requests that members of the Western community submit articles, art, or poetry on that given theme, with a deadline in December. After several papers have been received, club members select papers which then get published in the journal in the spring. Our organization supports the development and dissemination of student history research at Western Connecticut State University.
