The Owl 1854 1854 One of the earliest recorded examples of satirical literature at the College. The premier issue is the only remaining copy in Swem Archives.

The Owl addresses many issues that would be considered controversial today, such as race and gender. Other issues addressed that are still present were professors, administration, and Williamsburg citizens. There is no evidence of funding found for The Owl. A theory on this is that The Owl was merely a joke amongst a group of students and they used their own money to pay to have it printed. Also there is no evidence to prove that multiple copies were produced and distributed. [14] —
