At The Exonian, we expect quality Op-Eds to…

• Be factually correct, clearly citing credible sources. Writers will be required to provide a list of cited sources to editors during the editing process.

• Be in some way relevant to issues or events at Exeter or with the intention of prompting conversations on campus.

• Present an argument that is original, mature, and in good faith, challenging predominant narratives or providing a new angle for said narratives on campus.

• Exclude any hate speech, which The Exonian, in conjunction with the Academy’s E-Book, defines as irrational, uninformed, derogatory, or oppressive language directed toward or harmful to specific communities or individuals.

• Debatable cases will be discussed by editor(s) and adviser(s) with the writer(s) to be removed or reframed.

• Be well-written, with a clearly stated thesis, logical line of thought and no extraneous content.

• Undergo revisions cooperatively and in a timely manner by the direction of editors and advisers.

• Not be used as a means of self-promotion or the promotion of corporations, violence, crime, conspiracy theories, oppression, or injustice.
