>Hello,
>I am a student and staff member for Matchbox 
>Magazine at UC Santa Cruz. We are trying to do 
>outreach to all of the UC campuses in order to 
>get submissions for the magazine by the February 
>15th due date (a month from now).
>
>A bit about the magazine...
>
>Matchbox magazine is the first free, 
>student-run, UC campus wide literary arts 
>magazine. Through the publication of the 
>literary and artistic talents demonstrated by UC 
>students of each respective campus, we will 
>develop a sense of community not yet offered by 
>a student run print media organization. Matchbox 
>aims to stimulate consciousness of and 
>cooperation between the artistic and creative 
>writing communities at participating UC 
>campuses. This collection of art and writing 
>will be implemented through collaboration with 
>students from participating campuses. Matchbox 
>strives to bring the UC campuses together in an 
>innovative way. Forming a state-wide literary 
>arts publication allows for students to give 
>back to the community at large and gain 
>recognition for the work that they are producing 
>during their enrollment at the UC. This 
>publication will not adhere to a system of 
>exclusive selection criteria that either 
>reflects the attitudes of a particular 
>university or negates those of others. Selection 
>of submissions will be based on the quality of 
>work as well as the magazine’s mission to 
>provide the UC system with creative diversity. 
>The first edition of Matchbox magazine will be 
>printed and distributed in the spring of 2007.
>
>As I am not a student at UCR and do not have the 
>means of getting there at this time to promote 
>the magazine and collect submissions, I am 
>asking for your help. It would be greatly 
>appreciated if you might be able to help us get 
>the word out about the magazine any way you can; 
>making announcements in classes, posting a flyer 
>on your office door, perhaps having a blurb in 
>literary publications, newspapers, etc.
>
>I have attached a copy of the flyer for your 
>convenience; once again the deadline for submissions is February 15th.
>
>THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR YOUR HELP!!!

>Best,
