The cover of the first issue features senior studio art major Abram Philipp. Uprising Magazine was put together by students and features local artists.

Even though over 250 student organizations exist at UNI, some students have found it difficult to find a group on campus that allows them to exercise their talents while building formative relationships. Until recently, there were little to no formal outlets through which students interested in fashion, music and the arts could express their creativity on the printed page. This changed when senior and textiles and apparel major Kara Keigan founded Uprising Magazine in October of 2014. “The magazine started as a way for people to express their interests who don’t normally get to express them at the university,” said John Fisher, senior mathematics teaching and music director at Uprising. “Fashion majors, people who are interested in music, art and culture in general.” Uprising’s first issue came

out this past May. Kara Keigan, editor in chief, is planning on releasing one issue per semester this year. The organization is entirely student-run, and heavy emphasis is placed on student involvement and creativity. However, as the magazine continues to expand and gain traction, a complicated funding procedure has proved troublesome for this newer organization.

SLC puts on Stop and Serve for UICH KAYLEEN TURN Staff Writer

On Tuesday, Sept. 22, multiple students stood inside the Maucker Union for Stop & Serve. From 11 a.m. to 1 p.m., members of the UNI Service & Leadership Council held this volunteer event for students to paint small canvases for children who are currently at the University of Iowa Children’s Hospital.

The event has been going on for a few years now. In the past, SLC has made items including tie blankets, pet toys and birdhouses. According to the “Stop & Serve” webpage on the UNI Student Involvement website, “Students are welcome to stop and serve for however long they have to give. There is no time commitment required. All projects are easy and fun.” See SLC, page 5
