Event Description 

This five-part series will guide you through the process of converting a seminar paper into a publication-worthy journal publication. We will learn how to make a plan for writing, choose a journal, craft a title, position your paper within relevant literature, and build an academic argument. We will walk you through how to submit a paper to a journal, and respond to editors’ and reviewers’ comments appropriately. We invite you to bring a draft seminar paper that you would like to convert into a journal article. This series is tailored to suit the needs of students in the Humanities and Social Sciences. Sessions are held every two weeks through the semester. We encourage you to attend all sessions of the series, but you are also welcome to sign up for only some sessions of particular interest.
