Have you ever had something so interesting to share, but no way to share it?

Have you ever written something so compelling that you feel the world should hear it, but had no way to make that happen?

I guess the better question here is: Have you ever wondered how to submit an article to The Old Gold & Black?

We accept open submissions to every single issue. What does that mean? It means that you simply have to email your article, 600 words in length and unbiased, to woffordold- [email protected], and in two(ish) short weeks, you will see it in print.

We suggest that anyone who wants to consistently contribute to the pa- per attends our weekly meetings at noon in the Publications Room of Dupre Residence Hall, located right behind Main Building.

If meetings aren’t your thing, find our distribution schedule below. The date an article is due will be the last day you can send in an article for it to appear in the issue of the corre- sponding distribution date.

Issue one was due Sept. 15. We dis- tributed on Sept. 27.

Issue two was due Sept. 29. We dis- tributed on Oct. 11. (Hey, that’s to- day!)

Issue three will be due Oct. 13. We will distribute on Oct. 25.

Issue four will be due Oct. 27. We will distribute on Nov. 8.

Issue five will be due Nov. 10. We will distribute on Nov. 29. With this issue being so prolonged because of Thanksgiving, articles must remain relevant for the next three weeks af- ter you turn them in.

Issue six, our final issue for semes- ter one, will be due Dec. 1. We will distribute on Dec. 13.

Issue seven will be due Feb. 16. We will distribute on Feb. 28.

Issue eight will be due March 2. We will distribute on March 14.

Issue nine will be due March 16. We will distribute on March 28.

Issue ten, Old Black & Blue, will be due March 30. We will distribute on April 18. This will also be a three- week period, but it’s our satire issue, so finding relevance should not be of any concern.

Issue eleven will be due April 20. We will distribute on May 2.

Issue twelve, our final issue for the 2022-2023 academic year, will be due May 4. We will distribute on May 16.

Typically, we do not change this schedule, but we will be sure to re- publish this schedule on our Insta- gram page, @oldgandb.

Please do not hesitate to reach out via the same email listed above if you have any comments or questions about this.

If you find that you have a topic that you would like to see written, what we call a “pitch,” but simply don’t have the time or interest in writing it yourself, please send it to that same address, and we will give it to one of our writers.

We also take submissions for more creative works by members of the Wofford community or opin- ion pieces about prevalent issues on campus. Anything you feel we should include; we are willing to consider!

We are here to serve you, all members of the Wofford community, and want to make sure that what we are putting out is what you would like to read
