Coming soon to a mailbox near you: Y Magazine, the renamed and redesigned flagship magazine of BYU, replacing BYU Magazine with an all-new vibe. With origins in The Alumni Announcer (1920s), Brigham Young Alumnus (1940s–’60s), and BYU Today (1970s–’90s), Y Magazine is wider, more visual, and should be in your hands in a few days. Right now, you can take a sneak peek online, with a slam-dunk cover story on Mark Pope, a think-piece on the relationship of faith and science, and tons of alumni stories. Read about the reasoning and recipe for the latest buffet of all things BYU: “A Feast for Brighams and Youngs.”
