Young Scholars in Writing also publishes collaborative manuscripts and research by or about historically or currently marginalized or underrepresented peoples and cultures. Young Scholars in Writing is peer-reviewed by undergraduate students from a range of two- and four-year colleges from across the U.S. and former contributors to the journal.
