"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.
