There is a rolling deadline of 10/23. Good luck! **************************************************** The Penn History Review (PHR) is now accepting submissions for its Fall 2022 issue! The PHR is a biannual publication of the Penn History Department featuring undergraduate historical research. If you are proud of a piece of historical writing and would like to see it published, please submit to the PHR! Papers do not necessarily have to be written for a history course; in fact, submissions are encouraged from any department, as long as the paper addresses a topic of historical interest and uses primary sources. The PHR will be accepting submissions on a rolling basis through Sunday, October 23rd. We highly recommend submitting ASAP since papers will be reviewed and accepted on a first come, first serve basis. Papers must be at least twelve pages double-spaced (with 1-inch margins) in Times New Roman font and include a bibliography that distinguishes between primary and secondary sources. Papers should also be submitted as Word documents rather than PDFs. Previous editions of the PHR are available here: http://repository.upenn.edu/phr/ [repository.upenn.edu] Please direct all submissions (as email attachments) and any questions or concerns you may have to PHRsubmissions@gmail.com. -- Ava Dove College of Arts & Sciences | University of Pennsylvania Candidate for Bachelor of Arts in History | May 2023 avadove@sas.upenn.edu Mark Weitzenkamp and Tracy Maschman Morrissey History Undergraduate Advising University of Washington Smith Hall 315 Box 353560 Seattle, WA 98195 vm: 206.543.5691 fax: 206.543.9451 depts.washington.edu/history Please click here to schedule an advising appointment!
