Jason Knapp over at Let Your Mind Alone is looking into the possibility of establishing a student-edited journal of Mormon studies, possibly in conjunction with BYU Studies (he mentions informal discussions with Jack Welch). It all sounds very tentative and gestational at the moment, but it sounds like a potentially interesting development. Students (or others, for that matter) who are interested in Mormon studies may want to check out Jason’s post, where he also gives contact information.
A possible model might be Studia Antiqua, the Student Journal for Ancient Studies at BYU. Google byu studia antiqua to find one of their journals.
Didn’t Eugene England start a Mormon Studies program at UVSC? Has this continued after his death?
Gene England’s Mormon Studies program at UVSC has continued and is now under the direction of Brian Birch. You may also want to get in touch with Dennis Potter also at UVSC. However, it sounds like Jason is looking for BYU connections (of which I have none).
Is BYU really the best place to base such an effort? I can think of reasons why it might be the worst place…
