Explorations Journal seeks student scholarly submissions
Explorations is a student-run journal guided by faculty and
administrators that selects and publishes student-authored articles of
of general interest in any area. Articles are submitted in a two-stage
process: first, proposals for articles are reviewed by faculty-student
teams; secondly, the resulting full-length articles undergo a second
round of peer review. Acceptance to the journal is competitive—less than
20% of submitted proposals are accepted. Creative pieces vetted by
faculty experts are also solicited, reviewed and chosen for publication.
Recently published articles have been from a wide range of academic
fields: music, creative poetry, forensics, cancer biology, astrophysics,
nanomedicine, computer algorithms, business, geosciences, sociology,
aerospace engineering, and cultural anthropology. The Explorations Board is currently assembling a collection of short, general interest articles of
scholarly content for publication in the Fall 2013 issue.
Submissions
are welcome from all disciplines and all undergraduate students
involved in research-based scholarly activity, including, but not
limited to, laboratory
research, education, engineering studies, and literary analysis. Team
submissions are welcome!
If interested, please ask your student to submit a proposal of his/her article (maximum 250 words) to https://scholasticahq.com/explorations-the-texas-a-m-undergraduate-journal/about
by the deadline of noon Thursday February 14, 2013. Specific writing and submission guidelines can be found at the url above, while tips for writing a proposal can be found at http://honors.tamu.edu/Research/ExplorationsSubmissions.html.
Note
that submission of a proposal indicates a commitment by the student to
author a full article if chosen. After reviewing all proposals, the Explorations
Board will issue invitations near the end of February to selected
students to submit full articles. The invitations will include
guidelines, procedures for formatting their article, and sample
articles. Full articles will be subjected to a second round
of review, and successful submissions will be published in the fifth
issue of the Explorations undergraduate journal in Fall 2013.

Help Aggie Replant restore Bastrop Lost Pines
Aggie Replant hopes to
recruit at least 700 Aggies as part of the first student-led university
organization to get involved in the planting of seedling trees next
month at Bastrop State Park, which was devastated by wildfire in 2011.
The Lost Pines RecoveryCampaign, facilitated by the Texas A&M Forest Service and Bastrop
State Park, is a great way for professors to integrate service into
their curriculum and for students to work together for an important
cause. Details are at
http://replant.tamu.edu/
