CALL FOR REVIEWERS

Xchanges is an interdisciplinary Technical Communication, Writing/Rhetoric, and Writing Across the Curriculum journal, which receives submissions from students from a wide array of institutions across the country and abroad. We are looking for experts across these fields to contribute their time and mentorship through providing submitting authors with thoughtful feedback for revision in anonymous review.

Xchanges is specifically looking for reviewers for the following submission types:

  • Empirical, research-based manuscripts

  • Reflective, practice-based pieces

  • Theoretical pieces addressing issues in the field

As a journal dedicated to providing space for emerging scholars, we seek reviewers who are interested in the following practices, regardless of the submission type:

  • Reviewing pieces from undergraduate and graduate writers

  • Providing mentorship-minded feedback on manuscripts

  • Participating in anti-racist peer review practices

  • Considering multiple ways of knowing and researching (e.g. Indigenous methodologies, queer methodologies, counterstories/testimonios, etc.)

The Xchanges Editorial Team invites interested reviewers to submit their information (including interests) here: https://forms.gle/L9M8EJ56xaoxo2pA7

We deeply appreciate reviewers’ contributions to the journal and work to make timelines that work well for reviewers. In an effort to acknowledge these contributions, reviewers for the journal can request letters for tenure/promotion/job-seeking packages from the Managing Editors. Email xchangesjournal with any questions or concerns.

Founded in 1889, the University of New Mexico sits on the traditional homelands of the Pueblo of Sandia. The original peoples of New Mexico – Pueblo, Navajo, and Apache – since time immemorial, have deep connections to the land and have made significant contributions to the broader community statewide. We honor the land itself and those who remain stewards of this land throughout the generations and also acknowledge our committed relationship to Indigenous peoples. We gratefully recognize our history.
