The Chimaerid (the CGS literary and arts magazine) has published its 2017 edition with art, poetry, and prose by College of General Studies students.

The Chimaerid (K-EYE-MI-RID) showcases the many artistic talents of CGS students, including poetry, photography, artwork, and more. Published each spring, the magazine is titled after a group of fish known as the chimaeridae, which are named after a Greek mythological beast composed of parts from many animals. Given the variety of artistic talents of CGS students, the magazine emanates a similar essence.

The Chimaerid staff continued its annual tradition of awarding prizes for visual art and writing:

  • Best Artwork – Belecia Villafan for “An attempt to keep them in” cover art
  • Best Photograph – Giancarlo Lobo for “Girl on MTR.”
  • Best Poem – Jillian Lattimore for “Wind.”
  • Best Short Story – Charles Chen for “Mother 0568.”

Printed copies of The Chimaerid were distributed in the spring semester and the edition is also available here: The Chimaerid. If you are interested in working on The Chimaerid, please contact faculty advisor Professor Regina Hansen (rhansen@bu.edu).
