Contributor Recruitment Center

Glimpse offers a number of handy tools to help you get your students involved in contributing to our website and print magazine. We encourage students from all areas of study to contribute to Glimpse, and we help those with less writing experience by undertaking an intensive, collaborative revision process with each and every contributor. Though not all submissions are ultimately accepted, we always offer students the chance to revise and encourage them to resubmit in the future. Students continually remark that writing for Glimpse helps them to sort out and reflect upon the overwhelming cultural experiences they confront while abroad.

To encourage your students to submit, you may:

  • Email our general submission announcement to your students
  • Print our PDF flyers and post them in your office or distribute them to your students
  • Join our international educator newsletter to keep updated on current contribution opportunities
  • Add a link to Glimpse on your website

Donations

The need for understanding and communication across national, cultural, religious, racial and ethnic lines has never been greater, and yet 85 percent of those 18-24 years of age cannot identify Afghanistan on a map. Glimpse works to resolve these disparities; your support makes it possible. Our world needs you.
