Call for Papers: Submit to The Compass by Aug. 15
The second issue of The Compass, edited and managed by the Arcadia University Honors Program, launched in April at the Exhibition for Academic Success and is now calling for papers to include in its third issue. The current issue features articles by eight students from universities across the nation and covers disciplines from the fine arts to humanities to mathematics.
“This is an amazing testament to our staff who are dedicated to establishing The Compass as a well-known scholarly journal,” said Editor-in-Chief Jennifer Clark ’16. “With the next issue, we are hoping to continue expanding our reach, possibly internationally.”
Undergraduate students from all colleges and universities in various disciplines are encouraged to submit their scholarly works. Recent alumni may submit work completed during their undergraduate career. Research-driven artistic work such as paintings, sculptures, and videos accompanied by a written component also are accepted. Submissions are reviewed on a rolling basis and must meet the following guidelines:
- Submissions must be formatted in Chicago style with a bibliography.
- Applicants must fill out the online Submission Form.
- Although it is not required, it is recommended that the applicant’s professor submit a Professor Approval Form.
- Submissions must be emailed as a word document attachment to thecompass@arcadia.edu. For email formatting guidelines, check the submission page.
The submission deadline is 11:59 p.m. Eastern Standard Time on Aug. 15. Submissions at any length are reviewed, but only one submission per applicant is reviewed at a time.
