"Do not underestimate the time commitment of meaningfully contributing to OPUS! I thought this was gonna be a few rounds of edits but my paper would ultimately be more or less the same. I was wrong. I would also recommend that whatever piece you submit you really care about. You spend a lot of time with it and unless you think what you have to say is interesting or important it can get tedious really quickly." - Olivia Matthes Theriault, Spring 2020 OPUS contributing writer, shares some tips for future OPUS writers.

"I would definitely recommend this experience to others, especially if you're not too confident with your writing or just looking to improve. It's a rewarding process to see the piece that you've been working on the whole semester published in an online Journal!" - Maggie Zhang, OPUS contributing writer, shares why she decided to submit a piece for the Spring 2020 issue of OPUS.
