Current Mirage Issue

Editors Note:  

We鈥檝e corrected two mistakes to the digital version of Mirage 2026. Unfortunately, we cannot correct printed versions.  

1. We misspelled Hope Marshell鈥檚 Name. This has been corrected in the table of contents and on page 64. 

2. We center-oriented all poetry in the issue, which compromised some of the authors鈥� intent for their poems. All poems that were submitted as left justified have been corrected to preserve their original format and intent. 

We formally apologize for any mistakes made during the production of the issue. While we do our best to mitigate issues, we will continue to improve our processes in the future.
