As a published journal of undergraduate writing, WR displays the achievements of some of BU’s most talented student-writers.  For many of these undergraduates, the journal also serves as a memorial of a transformative time in their lives, when they began living away from home, pursuing intellectual passions, and enjoying their independence at the beginning of their adult lives.  With this volume, we remember the achievements of all of our students, including those who were killed in a May car accident in New Zealand: Roch Jauberty (CAS’14), Daniela Lekhno (SMG’13), and Austin Brashears (ENG’13).
