What's the Handle?


The Handle is a student-run, digital quarterly magazine of arguments and ideas for you to read in between compulsively checking your Facebook. Each issue features a collection of original writing on political and cultural issues that matter in a quickly progressing world. Our aim is to start conversation, not end it; to be a crucible for ideas and a platform for dialectic; to engage and inform, from peer to peer.

Originally a blog-based online magazine, the Handle was founded by a group of Auburn University students in April 2012 and is now published four times a year from a computer someplace on the plains of dixie.
