Kansas State 1xbet online games login

MANHATTAN — A new undergraduate journal will encourage multidisciplinary 1xbet online games login and enable students to share their discoveries with a wider community of scholars.

Crossing Borders: An Interdisciplinary Journal of Undergraduate Scholarship is a collaborative effort from departments and programs within Kansas State 1xbet online games login . Karin Westman, head of the English department and a journal editor, said the open-access journal will be published online twice a year by New Prairie Press, an online imprint of K-State Libraries.

"Crossing Borders introduces undergraduates to the processes and values of open-access, peer-reviewed communication," Westman said. "The mission of the journal is to prepare students to be more critical consumers and producers of scholarly discourse."

The journal is a partnership between K-State Libraries, the Department of 1xbet, the University 1xbet online casino Program and Frontier, an interdisciplinary program involving undergraduate students at Kansas State University and a number of other universities. Westman said Crossing Borders will publish a variety of formats, including original case studies, literature reviews, opinion pieces and 1xbet online games login reports. Students from Kansas State University and other universities are invited to submit their work for review.

The journal defines interdisciplinary work as teams or individuals integrating information, data, techniques, tools, perspectives, concepts and/or theories from two or more disciplines. This information must be used to advance fundamental understanding or to solve problems beyond the scope of a single discipline or area of 1xbet online games login . Westman said all content in the journal is written solely by undergraduate students who contributed substantially to the 1xbet online games login or creative activity on which the writing is based.

Cliff Hight, university archivist and assistant professor at K-State Libraries, said that while Kansas State University undergraduate students have been publishing 1xbet online games login for decades, a majority of it has been in magazines or newsletters.

"The significance of Crossing Borders is that the interdisciplinary approach will broaden the field of undergraduate study involved in publishing 1xbet online games login , as well as generate connections that haven't been made previously," Hight said.

The launch of this journal underscores the importance of undergraduate 1xbet online games login in the university's plan to become a Top 50 public 1xbet online games login university by 2025. Justin Kastner, associate professor of food safety and security, director for the University Honors Program and co-director of Frontier, said there has never been a better time for Kansas State University students to be involved in undergraduate 1xbet online games login .

"Crossing Borders presents yet another resource for undergraduate 1xbet online games login while strategically advancing the university's educational mission," Kastner said. "As students author manuscripts from multiple academic perspectives, they must interpret discipline-specific language. This involves critical thinking — a skill that both the university and employers value."

Westman said tutors in the English department's writing center will be available to help students tailor their ideas for an interdisciplinary audience, revise their drafts for submission and review, and prepare accepted manuscripts for publication.
