\u201cIn today\u2019s era of digital overload and fake news, launching a print publication is an act of countercultural resistance,\u201d President Benoit-Antoine Bacon writes in the debut winter 2020 issue. \u201cIt carries the insistence that these words and pictures are real, meaningful and lasting \u2014 that these stories matter<\/em>.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Stories that Matter<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Stories in the first issue feature members of the Carleton community who are working to improve energy efficiency<\/a>, share Indigenous stories<\/a>, support refugees<\/a>, advocate for health and wellness<\/a>, safeguard our water<\/a> and wildlife<\/a>, alleviate the opioid crisis<\/a> and much, much more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIn many of these articles, students, professors and alumni are speaking directly to you in either a first-person or as-told-to format,\u201d writes Bacon. \u201cWe wanted their voices to be front and centre in the inaugural issue of Raven<\/em>. They make our university great, and this is their magazine.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n
