Writer's Guidelines

While emphasizing articles of scholarly merit,The Mind's Eye focuses on a general communication of ideas of interest to a liberal arts college. We welcome expository essays as well as fiction, poetry, and art from faculty and guest contributors. We publish twice a year. The deadline for the Fall issue is July 15. Deadline for the Spring issue is January 15.

Submissions should adhere to these guidelines:

1. Submit unpublished manuscripts both on paper and on disk, using either PC or MAC platform word processing programs. Manuscripts should be typed double spaced. Your name, address, phone number and e-mail address, if available, should be listed on the cover sheet; your name should appear at the top of each page.

2. We will consider simultaneous submissions under the provision that the author notify us of this, and contact us immediately if the material is accepted elsewhere.

3. If you wish your manuscript and disk returned, please enclose a return-self-addressed envelope. If it is to be mailed off-campus, attach sufficient postage. While we make every attempt to safeguard your manuscript and disk, we can not be held responsible for their loss.

4. Use MLA or APA style, with in-text references, as appropriate to the content and disciplinary approach of your article(See MLA or APA stylebooks for guidelines).

5. While we will consider articles of unspecified length, preference is given to articles under 20 pages.

6. We reserve the right to edit for clarity and accuracy.

7. We will consider one-color art work (photographs, line drawings, woodcuts, etc.)
   

8. Payment will be made in contributor's copies.
