Welcome to The Tributary, the student-run literary journal from Lycoming College.

We appreciate diverse forms and styles and are always willing to embrace any unique type of fiction, poetry, nonfiction, artwork, photography, and everything in between. Our goal in producing editions as an undergraduate literary journal is to allow a space in which new artists may explore freely the different forms of their medium, as well as the overall priority for fresh, engaging perspectives and talents. In short, we seek artists who are willing to transcend the bounds of mundane in order to pursue excellence; by doing so, a platform is extended so that other voices may be heard beyond the sea of repetition, the nay-sayers, and coattail-riders, the ones who consider art solely as a means to an end but not the end itself.
