The Birch

"The Birch" is a national undergraduate journal of Eastern European and Eurasian culture. The journal, which is run by undergraduates at Columbia University, is the first exclusively undergraduate journal of Slavic, Eastern European and Eurasian studies in America. Any enrolled undergraduate can submit work to one of three sections: creative writing, literary criticism and culture and affairs. "The Birch" has featured interviews with the children of Vladimir Mayakovsky, Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn and Boris Pasternak. The Fall 2006 issue featured an interview with Eduard Shevardnadze.
