Legends
As a club, Legends is open to all students who are interested in the literary arts. The club meets to discuss members'
works, publication opportunities, and club activities and events. Members are invited to attend workshops concentrating
on the art of writing. These conferences are conducted in the area and regionally. Members are also invited to serve as
club officers and to attend student activities council and clubs and organization meetings. Legends' members have been
a vital part of SCC's arts efforts. Club members organize and participate in on-campus and off-campus readings. On
occasion members go into the community and promote creative writing. Some of the groups Legends has helped to give a
voice to though the writing arts are: Spokane County Juvenile Court Services; The School for Design Technology and
Visual Art, Technikon Free State, South Africa; and SCC students who are readers of Braille and second language
students through translations.
As a class, Legends is a multi-level course culminating in the production of Legends, SCC's literary journal.
The course provides an excellent opportunity for editors/writers to become involved in the process of building a
journal from the ground up. Students learn layout and design, the process of selecting creative work, and the
publication process. Legends earned "Honorable Mention" for overall journal production and
was awarded the "Best Cover Art and Design" by the Washington Community Technical Colleges Humanities Association
Conference's journal competition for 2001 and 2002. The SCC Student Activities Council, the Student Activities Staff,
and Administration selected Legends as "Club of the Year for 2001-2002" and Legends' advisor as "Advisor of the Year
for 2002-2003."
