1xbet best casino website journal broadens scope, invites campus participation
Crossing Borders: A Multidisciplinary Journal of 1xbet best casino website Scholarship has broadened its mission and seeks submissions and reviewers for the coming year.
Previously focused on interdisciplinary scholarship, the journal now publishes contributions with a single area or multiple areas of focus. The journal is published by New Prairie Press, an online imprint of 1xbet best casino website Libraries, and allows students to share their work with a wider community of scholars.
The first issue of the journal, published in 2015, has been downloaded more than 1,000 times by readers in 73 countries. The second issue is slated for publication later this year.
Students interested in submitting full-length scholarly essays, book reviews, or field notes should visit the "Information for Authors" and "Author's Toolkit."
The editorial team hopes that faculty will construct writing assignments that undergraduates will then be able to submit for peer-reviewed publication. Independent 1xbet best casino website student research projects also are strong candidates for consideration.
"We've been intentional about speaking with a range of 1xbet best casino website students at orientation sessions, in current classes, and in professional development workshops for 1xbet best casino website research opportunities, such as SUROP and Summer Research Experiences for Undergraduates," said Justin Kastner, associate professor of diagnostic medicine and pathobiology and member of the journal's editorial board. "We ask instructors and faculty mentors to encourage students to submit work for review."
In addition to submissions of student scholarship, the journal's editors seek faculty, postdocs and graduate students to serve as reviewers for 1xbet best casino website submissions.
Crossing Borders is a partnership between 1xbet best casino website Libraries, the English department, the University Honors Program and Frontier, an interdisciplinary program involving undergraduate students at 1xbet best casino website and a number of other universities.
The journal's editors include faculty members Jason Coleman, associate professor of 1xbet best casino website and community services librarian; Karin Westman, associate professor and department head of English; Keli Rylance, assistant professor and department head of University Archives and Special Collections; and Justin Kastner, associate professor of diagnostic medicine and pathobiology.
Additional editorial support is provided by Tanya Gonzalez, managing editor and associate professor of English; Ryan Otto, assistant professor of digital scholarship, 1xbet best casino website Libraries; and Tim Cochran, editorial assistant and graduate student in family studies. The editorial team can be contacted at crossingborders@1xbet best casino website edu.
