Dear Higher Education: Letters from the Social Justice Mountain

Hi

The review of submissions is underway.  Please review the submission guidelines and update your submission if you did not use the required template.  Please use the provided template to prepare your resubmission, taking care to retain all headings and formatting as specified.

DHE Template

Finally, before we move to final production, we ask that you complete one last step: please review your submission against our template to ensure it is properly formatted and free of any remaining errors.

As you do your final review, you may find it helpful to check for the following:

• Salutation and signature line are present and correctly formatted
• Spelling, grammar, and punctuation throughout
• Consistent capitalization of proper nouns, titles, and institutions, where relevant
• No unintended line breaks, spacing irregularities, or formatting artifacts
• Font, margins, and layout match the template
• If you do cite a source in your paper, please follow the Chicago (Author-Date) style. References and citations, however, should be minimal.

 

Please return your final, formatted submission immediately. 

A final step in the publication is to ensure that your ORCID iDs have been activated. To do so, please follow the steps below:

1. Log in to the Dear Higher Education submission portal.
2. Open your profile/account settings.
3. Look for ORCID iD, Connect ORCID, or Link ORCID Account.
4. Click the link and sign in to your ORCID account.
5. Authorize the connection.
6. Save your profile and return to the submission system.

If your ORCID is already entered but not authenticated:

• Remove the existing ORCID number.
• Reconnect it using the ORCID sign-in process.
• Save your profile and refresh the page. An authenticated ORCID usually displays the ORCID icon and indicates that the account is connected. 

 

Thank you again for this contribution. 

Warm regards,

Editor, Dear Higher Education

At Dear Higher Education, we tell the living history of equity and inclusion work in higher education. We document the disillusionment born from higher education systems that have silenced scholars and administrators alike. By centering real stories, we chart a different future, one built by confronting the historical and systemic challenges that demand social justice activism today.
