Upcoming Opportunities

Choosing the right journal is a critical—but often difficult—step in the publishing process. Selecting an appropriate journal increases the chances of acceptance, ensures research reaches the right audience, and ultimately maximizes its impact.

This course was designed to meet that challenge. It introduces key topics such as publishing models and costs, includes real-life case studies and hands-on activities, and breaks content into short, flexible lessons (10–15 minutes each) that easily fit into busy schedules.

The Homewood Writing Center Supports Students and Faculty!

The Writing Center (Gilman Hall 230) is now supporting all faculty as well as undergraduate and graduate students in KSAS and Whiting.  As faculty, you may opt to bring in any writing you are working on, including scholarly and pedagogical writing projects.  Our trained tutors (both undergraduate and graduate students on the Homewood campus) are equipped to help you think through questions of audience and comprehensibility in the writing you do in your field and can provide valuable insight into how your assignments and class handouts are understood by your students. Appointments are available both online and in-person.  For more information or to schedule, click here or contact the Director, Deirdre Vinyard [email protected]. We hope to see you (and your students!) in the Writing Center.
