Places to Publish Student Work

Welcome to the website for Young Scholars in Writing: Undergraduate Research in

Writing and Rhetoric, a peer-reviewed journal for undergraduates.

The “young scholars” in our title is not a marker of a scholar’s age but rather of his or her experience with discursive inquiry in writing, rhetoric, and related topics. Thus, we invite all young scholars in the field to submit their work!

Young Scholars in Writing publishes excellent scholarship on topics tightly related to composition, rhetoric, and/or literacy studies. To be eligible for the Spotlight on First
Year Writing, a piece must have been written in a lower-division composition course
or by a first year student. Research papers on topics unrelated to composition,
rhetoric, and/or literacy studies will not be considered.
