What do Editors and Reviewers do?
Reviewers read the submissions before meetings and vote on whether they shall be: Accepted, Accepted with Revisions, or Rejected.
Like Reviewers, Editors vote on submissions. Additionally, they negotiate revisions with the poets, authors, and artists.
Head Editors give guidance to the other editors. Staff Editors may volunteer to join any Editorial team in need.
The Editor-in-Chief approves all edits before they are sent.
What is the page limit?
There is no page limit for Melange. However, if your submission is over 25 pages, we may not be able to review it until the following semester.
What do we not accept?
We do not accept AI-generated submissions, plagiarized material, propaganda, sexually explicit photography, discriminatory content, or anything else that does not comply with Princeton’s values as stated in Rights, Rules, and Responsibilities.
