Wall Literary Journal is an annually published literary magazine founded in 2001 featuring selected works from Saddleback College students.[1] It publishes short stories, poetry, personal narratives, photography, and artwork. A printed copy of the journal circulates on campus at the start of Saddleback's Fall Semester. Unlike many other college and university literary journals, WALL only accepts submissions from students currently enrolled at Saddleback College. Staff members consist of Saddleback College students and are responsible for reviewing and selecting student submissions, layout and design, proofing, copy editing, and publicity.
