Becoming a Writer
- A writer requires a creative mindset to express their academic advice yet maintain an interesting tone. Our articles are for students pursuing all academic endeavors, meaning that we are open to writers of all backgrounds. Our publication is the perfect place for writers wishing to express their academic interests while inspiring other students to pursue their dreams.
- A writer should have a deep proficiency in grammar, spelling, word choice, and flow.
Becoming an Editor
- An editor needs to thoroughly revise material before it is published, making various edits and other changes. Editors have to be proactive, responsible and have to work together as they decide how to split their job.
- You will need extreme proficiency in grammar, spelling, proper word choice, and vocabulary.
- Editors must have exquisite reading abilities to revise articles efficiently and effectively.
Story Tagging
We support publishing stories under six main topics: technology, science, engineering, student life, sociology, and miscellaneous.
As a writer, when you send us a story for review, you will need to include at least one of the tags that we support, or your story will not show up on our page when published. Tags are case-sensitive!
All these topics are listed in the navigation bar on our homepage.
(Topic: Tag)
Technology: Technology
Science: Science
Engineering: Engineering
Student Life: Student Life
Sociology: Sociology
Misc: Miscellaneous (but still related to academics)
As long as one of these tags is attached to your story, you can add any others you like!
That’s it! Now all you have to do is fill out this application! Welcome to our team; we truly appreciate your willingness to contribute!
