[ATTW-L] Call for next editorial team for Young Scholars in Writing

[YSW Editor]

Dear Colleagues,

The co-editors of Young Scholars in Writing invite interested parties to
apply to be the next editors and have their college or university be the
next institutional home of Young Scholars in Writing.

The current editorial team (based at York College of Pennsylvania) plans on
completing their term in Winter 2025 upon the publication of Volume 22.  It
is our hope to have the next editorial team in place to shadow the entire
production and publication of Volume 22 (January 2024 to December 2024).

Young Scholars in Writing has a 20-year history of publishing high-quality
undergraduate research in writing studies. The journal publishes one volume
a year, mentoring the undergraduate authors through the revision and
publication process.

The benefits to an institution bringing on YSW:


   -

   Project-based and experiential learning opportunities for classes
   -

   Opportunities for student internships
   -

   Raises profile of the writing program/department
   -

   Develops networks within writing discipline and schools for faculty and
   students
   -

   Generate opportunities for faculty research and publications
   -

   Generate opportunities for service to the discipline


There are some costs associated with the journal, and the new editorial
team would need to secure funding to support website-related costs,
printing, and mailing.

The journal has developed a relationship with Parlor Press, which handles
the layout, printing and mailing of each volume, and PKP Journal systems,
which hosts the website and ensures that each volume is listed in the MLA
database.

We would be happy to meet with any interested faculty members to discuss
the current editorial process and needs for the journal. Please complete
this short online form if you are interested in meeting with the current
editorial team to learn more.
