Submission Process
Any current CSUEB students and recent graduates, regardless of major, are welcome to submit an essay for consideration. We accept research essays, review essays, book reviews, film reviews, oral histories, and other works that are historically oriented. Research essays should contain an argument, credible sources, and ample citations to support the claims.
All essays go through a double-blind peer review process, where the editorial board will not know the author’s identity, and the author will not know the editorial board members’ identities. Using this evaluation form, the editorial board will make decisions about which essays to accept and provide all authors with extensive feedback by late February.
To submit, upload your essay below by September 1st. There is not a word-count requirement. We ask that you use Chicago Manual of Style footnotes in your essay. Please only submit one essay per year.
