CALL FOR REVIEWERS AND SECTION EDITORS
August 14, 2014

Dear Undergraduate Research Supporter,

You may have heard that the Oklahoma State Regents for Higher Education is sponsoring the creation of the Oklahoma Journal of Undergraduate Research (OKJUR)-a statewide collaboration to publish undergraduate research online.  This exciting venture will open the opportunity for publication to undergraduates at all Oklahoma institutions of higher education, affording them the chance to experience the peer review process and its affirmation.  But we need your help. We have several responses for reviewers and section editors for Life Sciences and Humanities, but we have no responses for the other topics. Please consider responding.


1.       Reviewers
The OKJUR Advisory Board is currently recruiting Oklahoma research faculty members to serve as reviewers for the journal.  We aspire to develop a statewide network of faculty experts in all fields of study to provide Oklahoma scholars with a valuable peer review experience.  If you are willing to review student research submitted to the OKJUR, please send the following information to Linda Mason (lmason at osrhe.edu<mailto:lmason at osrhe.edu>) for consideration:


1.       Name

2.       Title

3.       Academic Department

4.       Institutional Affiliation

Note: The OKJUR double-blind review process will be entirely on-line and will not require emailing attachments.


2.       Section Editors
Section editors will be responsible for directing the peer review process and making publication decisions in designated fields of study.  If you are interested in assuming the role of section editor, the OKJUR Advisory Board is currently seeking individuals for the following sections:


1.       Business

2.       Education and Professional Studies

3.       Humanities

4.       Social and Behavioral Sciences

5.       Fine Arts

6.       Mathematics, Physical Sciences and Engineering

7.       Life Sciences

Please submit your name, title, academic department and institutional affiliation to Linda Mason (lmason at osrhe.edu<mailto:lmason at osrhe.edu>) by May 9, 2014 for consideration as a section editor.  The OKJUR Advisory Board will appoint editors to terms of three (3) years.

Thank you for supporting undergraduate research in Oklahoma.  I look forward to collaborating with you to highlight the exceptional scholarship of Oklahoma students at all institutions.

Thanks,

Tim O'Neil, Editor-in-Chief

Do not be afraid to give your time to writing grant proposals. Time given to planning proposals is never time lost, but is rather time gained, so that our research, our programs, our collaborations and indeed our whole profession may become more profoundly significant.
