Letters to the Editor

The Bates Student welcomes and values community voices. Let us know what you think by sending us a Letter to the Editor or an Op-Ed.

Letters to the Editor may be submitted by any reader of The Bates Student and must directly respond to a story recently published in The Student. Letters should run approximately 250 words and should be emailed to [email protected] before 6p.m. each Sunday.

Op-Eds may be submitted by any member of the Bates community – students, staff, faculty, alumni or parents – or by local Lewiston residents, and must address an issue or topic specific to Bates or the local Lewiston-Auburn area. Op-Eds should run approximately 500-700 words and should be emailed to [email protected] before 6p.m. each Sunday.

We expect exclusivity in Letters to the Editor and Op-Eds. Please do not send us anything that has been published by or submitted to any other media organization. We do not accept simultaneous submissions.
