Looking to build upon the previous years of successful student publication, the WRD Committee for CK encourages faculty to identify strong papers and projects for submission. We are seeking submissions from WRD majors and minors in upper-level courses from the current academic year 2018–2019. Scholarship from SQ 2018 is also eligible.
All submissions should follow the LAS guidelines (see below) and should be emailed to Dr. Tim Elliott (t.elliott@depaul.edu) by Friday, May 24th.
The committee will read the submissions and choose one for publication. The committee may ask for revisions before the final submission to the CK editor by June 30, 2019. Any questions about the process may be directed to Dr. Elliott.
