Publication
All submissions will be blind reviewed by at least two members of the Editorial Board and/or reviewers selected by our guest editor. The Editors and the Editorial Board reserve the right to suggest changes and corrections and to decide the final acceptance and publication schedule of manuscripts.
Authors are responsible for the accuracy of the facts represented in their work and for securing permission to quote lengthy excerpts from previously published pieces. Authors are also responsible for securing a signed release for published content, and for providing a copy of the release to the Editorial Board upon acceptance for publication in the Journal. For more information, refer to the College Art Association’s resources on Publishing in the Visual Arts and Images, Sources, and Rights Clearance Agencies. http://www.collegeart.org/ip/ip_image
Authors should not include names or identifying information anywhere within the submission. Any reference to your previous work should be by third person in the article.

The author stipulates that the material is not currently under review at another journal (electronic or print) and that he or she will not submit the material to another journal (electronic or print) until the completion of the editorial decision process.
For images not created by the author, the author is responsible for securing permission to reuse any image from the copyright holder of the image.
The Reviewers will look for the following:
Is the work in keeping with the purpose of the Journal? Is it written clearly and does it convey to the reader alternative views that contribute to our understanding of the arts and teaching and learning?
Does the discussion show connections to the historical framework of the discipline or exemplars, while expanding our perceptions of what is possible?
The Journal welcomes expansive, creatively written manuscripts and artwork that could include poetry, video, photography, interviews, short dramas, and memoirs of historical significance to the arts and teaching and/or what is listed in the formal "Call."
Accepted submissions will undergo a visual design treatment by our copy editor. To help with this process, authors will be given more formatting guidelines to follow upon acceptance. Adherence to these guidelines will help speed the final stage of publication.
