Totem
is Gannon University’s annual student-produced literary-art magazine containing
poetry, short stories, prose, artwork and photography submitted by the
students, faculty and staff of Gannon University. Totem strives to highlight
the creative talents of those in our university community by sampling a diverse
range of artistic media and perspectives.
Our Legacy
Prior
to Totem, Gannon University had published "The Schutcheon"
(1963-1964), the "Laureate" (1964-1980), and the "Phoenix"
(1980-1991). In 1992 the literary magazine known as Totem came to life. In
1963, when Totem was "The Schutcheon", only essays and creative
writing were accepted. Beginning in 1964 when it became the
"Laureate", art and poetry gained acceptance. After changing names to
the "Phoenix" and then to "Totem", we come to where we are
now. Totem accepts submissions of almost every form of art. You could be a part
of our legacy.
