Submission Guidelines

We’re a student-led, national platform focused on thoughtful, balanced writing. Before submitting, please review the following guidelines carefully.

Topics

We accept articles on current affairs (events that are significant today, may require additional research), opinion pieces (a relevant, debatable topic with personal insight), sports (analysis of an event, player, team, etc. and attempt to go beyond simple statistical analysis), and pop culture (movies, media, music, anything that is newsworthy and requires a student perspective). 

Non-Partisan

We are a non-partisan publication. If you’re writing an opinion piece (in any topic), you must fairly acknowledge the other side. We don’t publish one-sided political attacks or partisan arguments.

Strong writing shows awareness of complexity. Make your case, but show you understand the full conversation.

Word Count

Articles must be between 500 and 1,200 words.

Submissions outside this range may not be considered.

AI Policy

You may use AI for ideas, but AI-generated or AI-assisted writing is not allowed. Plagiarism will result in rejection. All submissions will be checked for AI

We want your thinking, your voice, and your analysis.

Standards of Respect

We do not publish:

  • Hate speech

  • Personal attacks

  • Discriminatory language

  • Defamatory content

Review Time

We will follow up with all submissions within 1-2 weeks
