ARCH is the University at Albany’s Undergraduate Literary Journal, which publishes all forms of original, diverse, and generative art twice a year.

We hope you enjoy the wide range of poetry, prose, drama, and mixed media we have the honor of publishing this year. To all our contributors: please never stop creating, even, and especially, in the world we live in today.

An effusive thank you to the UAlbany Writing Center, our contributors, the Editor’s Collective (whose works you can find in their own special feature), and of course, our wonderful, wise, and ever-helpful faculty director Dr. Jil Hanifan.

With gratitude and joy,

The managing editors for Spring 2025:

Stephen Piazza & Hadyn Archambeault
