External Review Committee
Manuscripts that pass editorial screening are reviewed by two independent referees selected for disciplinary fit.
Referees are drawn from our external review committee and include university faculty, researchers, graduate students, and experienced educators across the humanities and social sciences.
Their role is not only to evaluate submissions, but also to offer young writers serious, specific, and constructive feedback.
