Welcome to the Eckerd Review! 

Eckerd Review welcomes fiction, nonfiction, poetry, hybrid writing, critical essays, and visual art from the Eckerd community only. Current Students, Eckerd and PEL Alums, members of ASPEC and OLLI, staff, faculty, and trustees are all invited to submit work for consideration.
