About

About The Undercurrent

The Undercurrent is a campus newspaper. It is written for college students across the country, with additional articles from the Ayn Rand Institute op-ed program and other writers.

We aim to release a print edition once a semester. The Undercurrent is distributed to college campuses across North America. If you're interested in distributing on your campus (or anywhere else), more information can be found here.

The Undercurrent's cultural commentary is based on the philosophy of Ayn Rand, a philosophy she named "Objectivism." Objectivism animates Ayn Rand's fiction, but it is first and foremost a systematic and comprehensive philosophy of life.

It holds that the universe is orderly, comprehensible, and conducive to human flourishing. It affirms that human beings are not only capable, but worthy of living on earth. The individual's own life and happiness comprise his own highest moral purpose. Man flourishes only in a society that values science, technology, freedom and capitalism. And beauty, too.

In these pages we hope to defend these values where they are under attack in our culture. To learn more about the ideas behind these values, you can begin by reading Ayn Rand's books, such as The Fountainhead and Atlas Shrugged, or by visiting the web site of the Ayn Rand Institute.
