About the journal
Founded in 1930, The Journal of Higher Education is the leading scholarly journal on the institution of higher education. Articles combine disciplinary methods with critical insight to investigate issues important to faculty, administrators, and program managers.
Instructions to Authors
Manuscripts should be mailed to Leonard L. Baird, Editor, The Journal of Higher Education, The Ohio State University Press, 180 Pressey Hall, 1070 Carmack Road, Columbus, OH 43210-1002, USA.
Style. The Journal of Higher Education has adopted as its official guide the Publication Manual of the American Psychological Association, 5th edition, and all manuscripts should be brought into conformity with this guide before they are submitted. Papers should be typed, double-spaced, on white 8 1/2 x 11 inch paper, with wide margins. An abstract of fifty words or less, summarizing the main points of the article, should accompany the manuscript. Since the journal's readers represent a variety of professional interests, it is recommended that any statistical material be presented as briefly and simply as possible. Although each paper submitted should deal with the methodology employed in addressing the subject in sufficient detail to place the data within the proper methodological setting, the editors of the journal are not primarily interested in papers setting forth practices of research methods (an acquaintance with fundamental procedures of scholarly analysis being assumed on the part of the reader) except for those papers that develop innovative methodological approaches.
Illustrations submitted with the final draft must be of professional quality, and executed on white paper or vellum, in black ink, with clear, medium weight, black lines and figures. Typewritten lettering should not appear in illustrations. Figures should be provided at size--no larger than 4 1/2 x 7 inches (full page) and preferably no larger that 4 1/2 x 3 1/2 inches (half page) and printed camera-ready at a minimum of 600 dpi. They should be numbered consecutively, and the number and author's name should be penciled lightly on the back of each. All illustrations must have captions, which should not appear on the artwork but should be typed, double-spaced, on a sheet at the end of the manuscript. If there is any potential for doubt, the word "top" should be written on the back of the illustration.
Authors should employ a Reference List format to list bibliographic data. Endnotes should be reserved for supplementary comment and typed on a separate page at the end of the manuscript.
Manuscript Length. Manuscripts averaging 25-30 pages of double-spaced typescript are preferred, but the editors will consider longer papers on topics requiring a fuller treatment.
Review Process. Those unsolicited manuscripts that are refereed are reviewed blind. Authors are thus requested to submit their name, professional position, and institution on a removable cover sheet. They should also mask any items of self-reference where they appear. Authors must not submit the manuscript of any article that is still under consideration by another publisher.
Editorial Reaction. Papers will not be returned to authors after submission if they fail to meet by a wide margin the basic criteria for selection. Otherwise, authors may expect to receive some notification within three months.
If an article is accepted, it will usually appear in print within twelve months after acceptance. Upon acceptance, contributors will be asked to supply a computer file on an IBM-compatible standard disk in WordPerfect or Microsoft Word. A signed copyright agreement, provided by the publisher, must be received prior to publication.
If an article that has been subjected to a full review is rejected, the opinions of the referees will be transmitted to the author.
Criteria for Selection. Papers are evaluated on the following points: Form: writing style and readability, logical development, appropriate length, appropriateness of author's stated objectives to treatment as defined below. Content: significance to JHE readers. Additional criteria are based upon the following manuscript orientations: as a research paper, as a technical paper, as a professional practice paper, as a literature review, and as a policy paper. It should be emphasized that the editors respond most favorably to manuscripts that evidence both a freshness of vision and a vitality that may be informed by, but certainly go beyond, methodological qualities, and that are in congruence with our publishing goals and directions. The most effective approach in learning about our interests is to read previous issues of the journal. We expect that authors, the journal, and the field will develop through the publication process.
