SEMQ Editorial Board

The SEMQ Editorial Board consists of professionals from all areas of higher education. The board values diverse perspectives shaped by members’ different institutional types, professional environments, and fields of expertise. Because of the level of research needed for publication, members must hold a graduate degree. The SEMQ Editorial Board meets virtually twice a year.

Responsibilities

At the request of SEMQ editors, board members review articles submitted to the journal, assessing: the suitability of the article for the journal’s audience, the usefulness of the information, the quality and logic of the research method, clarity, and presentation style. Each member may review one or two articles per issue, totaling six to eight articles annually. The time commitment varies throughout the year but is generally 1-2 hours per month. Members serve a three-year term, with the option to serve a second term.
