Editorial Process
The editorial process is done through peer review, that is, students editing the work of other students. Peer reviewing provides an excellent opportunity for both students, submitter and editor. Moreover, it is important to mention that submitters should expect numerous revisions; the editorial process may include several stages, and papers may be sent back and forth several times between editor and submitter. The nature of this process, of course, will vary and will be contingent upon each individual submission.
