Peer Reviewing Workshop

Re:Search is recruiting peer reviewers to look over and give comments on our submitted proposals!

This is a great experience for editing, giving feedback, and more! We appreciate everything our peer reviewers do and they are an integral part of the journal, as they give feedback to the executive board, who, after seeing this feedback, will decide which proposals to accept for the publication. 

If you are interested in acting as a peer reviewer, we will be holding a workshop this Wednesday, 11/8, at 5:00 in room 104 of the English Building. 

If you have any questions, feel free to email uiuclitjournal@gmail.com

See you Wednesday!
