8 Takeaways From Harvard’s Task Force Reports
Directors of The Dartmouth Quarterly, a national undergraduate publication, have announced a new system of discovering talented college writers.
The plan would encourage young writers by placing their work before a wider group of writers than is reached by college magazines. Payments from one to ten dollars would be made for each poem or article accepted.

The magazine claims "the authors of tomorrow are producing better material than is found in the slick type of magazines and more readable copy than is read in the literary journals. The combination of readability and quality in literature is rarely produced today because it is not sufficiently encouraged."
The editors want students in various colleges to act as agents for the quarterly by soliciting manuscripts.
