The History of Nebo: A Literary Journal
The history of Nebo: A Literary Journal stretches back to the earliest years of Arkansas Tech University, which was founded in 1909. As the university grew, so did its commitment to fostering the literary and visual arts. While the journal has undergone several name changes throughout its existence, its mission of supporting creative expression has remained constant.
Nebo first began publication as The Five Cent Cigar in 1971 before adopting its current name during the 1982-1983 academic year. Over the decades, the journal has provided a platform for Arkansas Tech students, emerging writers, and nationally recognized authors to share their work.
Edited and staffed entirely by students at Arkansas Tech University, Nebo has earned recognition at the Arkansas College Media Awards for excellence in poetry, fiction, and art. The journal is published twice yearly, in the spring and fall semesters, and welcomes submissions of poetry and short prose fiction between August 15 and January 31 each year.
Notice to Readers
As part of our effort to digitally archive Nebo and ensure its accessibility, some volume and issue numbers in the online archive may not match those printed in the original journals. This is due to the metadata mapping process required for accurate cataloging and preservation. While we have taken care to maintain the integrity of the journal’s history, variations in numbering may occur.
If you have any questions or notice any inconsistencies, please feel free to contact us. Thank you for your understanding as we work to preserve the legacy of Nebo!
