Oh snap, opportunity knockin'

"Hey, I'm the assistant editor for the George Mason Review, Mason’s scholarly undergraduate journal.  I approached Lynne recently about helping us find a highly qualified undergraduate in the Art and Visual Technology major to work on the GMR's peer reviewer board.  She obviously thinks you would make a great addition to our current review staff, and, based on her comments about you, I do as well.

The GMR has both a print and online presence and solicits submissions from across the disciplines.  (Learn more here) Because of this virtual presence and cross-disciplinary focus, we want diverse, representative peer reviewers--like yourself.

In essence, peer reviewers help decide what works define or even redefine scholarship, and, in this capacity, you lend your voice to what Mason scholarship looks like.  In a sense, you would be helping shape our response to and solicitation of visual art.  As a member of the GMR staff, peer reviewers also have opportunities to write for the GMR blog, and peer reviewers are always considered first for vacant board positions."

I get to review work? I GET TO BLOG? Awwwyeah.
