You may submit three times during the reading period. Once you submit, please wait to receive a reply from the staff.

- Any information you want to give the editors about your work
- Contact information
- A 50 to 75-word third-person bio about yourself or the BC-affiliated individual who created the work. Please tell us your majors/minors, any upcoming work, which classes you’re in, and how long you have been writing or creating art.
- For art submission, include the medium of your work.
