All of the works published in Angles since its first edition in 2008 were written by students in the introductory writing courses at MIT. These courses, designated as CI-HW subjects, bring together students who love to write, students who struggle with writing, students who thrive in seminar-style classes, and students who just want a chance to develop their English skills. These students prosper together and produce some remarkable work. Angles has provided them with a public outlet for that work. It also provides the CI-HW instructors with material that inspires and guides their current students.
