NU Sends Mixed Message
Northwestern University has “reaffirmed its commitment to publishing and disseminating scholarly writing” in a nationwide search for a new director of the Press. This same commitment takes a different approach in the announcement that TriQuarterly Magazine “will be going online within the year.” Other communications besides the university’s PR machine would suggest that the funding for the print pubication has been cut and the shift to online is the only means of TriQuarterly‘s survival. A bit of a mixed message from NU.
