All material is subject to editorial discretion, and is not guaranteed to appear in the Daily. We encourage you to discuss your op-ed ideas with the Op-Ed editor prior to submitting at oped@tuftsdaily.com.
When choosing which op-ed submissions to publish, we take into consideration the length of submissions and their time sensitivity. We will consider your submission for publication in this context, provided it fits the op-ed requirements.
