Though it has now returned to its position as a quiet sanctuary for students in between classes in Tompkins, Caldwell and Winston Halls, Caldwell Lounge played venue for a wealth of talent Sunday as Windhover, the University’s literary arts magazine, hosted its open mic night.

About 50 performers and spectators gathered in the lounge to hear and present their talents, ranging from spoken poetry to music. The entire show was recorded and the audio will be considered for entry in Windhover’s annual print edition, which is set to be released this April.

But unlike years past when the limited print edition was the only vehicle for content, the renovations to the magazine’s Web site allow performances, images, poems and drawings to be uploaded and viewed anytime throughout the year.

Windhover Editor Helen Dear said the new Web site features allow the magazine to serve more students than it could through its print edition, which, due to a limited number of print copies, often leaves some students without a copy.

“It showcases the literary, visual and audio talents of N.C. State,” Dear, a senior in graphic design, said. “Now it has become a year-round showcase.”

Dear said the magazine is still accepting submissions for consideration in the magazine up until the deadline of Dec. 1. Dear said the magazine is especially looking for visual submissions such as photos, drawings or etches.
