Administrative History
With an introduction from then Indiana University President, William Lowe Bryan, the
first issue of The Vagabond appeared in October of
1923, as a bimonthly student publication, carrying poems, essays, short stories,
sketches, and humor. The publication statement of the first edition outlined the
twofold objectives of the publication stating: "the magazine offers a medium of
expression for the literary life of campus; and it hopes to hasten a rebirth of
science, art, and life at Indiana." The first editor-in-chief was Mauck
Brammer, followed by Philip B. Rice and Robert E. Harris, Edmund Bierwagen, John H.
Johnson, Maurice H. Smith, Walter Grant and Robert Fink, and Robert Hallstead.
Featuring articles which were often highly satirical, critical of the university and
sometimes quite risqué , The Vagabond, as might be expected, often aroused a great
deal of disapproval from the campus community. In January of 1927, then editor John
Johnson ran the article "The College Student: Juvenile Sophisticate" which
painted a highly critical picture of the typical campus student. The article
resulted in the expulsion of both the editor and the author ofthe article and as a
result, only one issue ofthe magazine was published in 1927 and 1928. Following the
scandal, the magazine was again revived in 1929 to its original standing. The last
known issue was published in April 1931.
Arrangement
The collection of publications is organized chronologically.
Scope and Content Note
Published from 1923 until 1931, primarily as a bi-monthly publication with some
interruption, The Vagabond featured the poetry, visual
art, essays, criticism, short stories and humor which targeted not only Indiana
University's undergraduates, but also its alumni and prominent members of the
faculty. Often, articles were authored under humorous, though rather obvious
pseudonyms, the most famous of which was William E. Moenkhaus who worked under the
pen name Wolfgang Beethoven Bunkhaus.
The cover and pages of each issue were highlighted by reproductions of paintings,
sculpture and prints by talented members of the student body as well as notable
members of the faculty such as T.C. Steele, Robert E. Burke and Harry Engel.
Reoccurring columns such as the "Campus Silhouette" humorously highlighted
noted members of the campus faculty and administration, such as T.C. Steele, Carl
Eigenmann and Dean Charles Sembower. The column "Notes on Higher Education at
Indiana" featured articles highly critical of the university, and documented
topics such as mandatory R.O.T.C. participation, athletics, greek life and the
Business School. Other highly satirical editorials sought to address other hot
issues of the era such as racial inequality, the influence of the Ku Klux Klan,
gender inequality, and the existence of women's dormitory hours. Other articles
were satirical simply for the sake of humor such as the article "In Defense of
Necking," or featured the now bygone campus landmarks such as the Book Nook and
the wooden boardwalk.
