2024 Convention Submission Evaluations
First, thank you for reading submissions for the Sigma Tau Delta 2024 Centennial Convention to be held in St. Louis, MO, April 3-6. The convention relies on volunteer evaluators to help select our members’ best work for the convention.
The link at the bottom of this page will take you to the instructions, guidelines, and information about the rubrics for your evaluations. As you know, many submitters are undergraduates presenting their scholarly and creative work to a large audience for the first time. Ideas we consider obvious may seem fresh and original to these writers. Nonetheless, writers should be held to a high standard of academic integrity and should use best practices for citing the works of others.
Advisors and students, Board members, and other colleagues expect us to weigh the merits of these papers carefully, with the goals of recognizing quality and rewarding genuine scholarship and creativity.
We are ask readers to finish reviewing and scoring submissions by Monday, November 20.
Once again, thank you for your invaluable assistance. We look forward to working with you over the next several weeks. Should you have any questions or comments, please feel free to contact us at englishconvention@niu.edu.
