Statement of Purpose

We chose the name but you define us. Our students, readers, and contributors are what make Quiddity what it is. You all were given voices and now is the time to use them. There are no limitations on the kind of writing we publish: we want the rawest form of you. 

Quiddity is a collection of works from the Arcadia community that represents the diversity and talents of our student body: bring the chemist, the psychologist, the lawyer, the teacher, the completely unexpected. What is in this literary magazine are creative pieces that are true to themselves, original, and unapologetic.

You write for yourself - now write to be heard by everyone. Be brave; embrace the challenge. Come all and create.
